    Don't you just love the 'ignore' list - you just can't see posts written by people who aren't worth responding to:T.

    How do you do an ignore list??

    Click on 'user CP' and then on 'edit ignore list'. Type in the name of the person who you want to ignore and then you can't see what they write. Their post comes up but it just says you can't read it because they're on your ignore list. Then, they can type away to their hearts content to get a reaction but you don't see it. :D

    After my HHC my list looks like this

    Decant any half bottles of bubble bath and such like
    Clean floors
    Removed any cob webs
    Remove any sticky finger marks from stairs / walls
    Clean lamp shades
    Clean toaster / kettle / microwave
    Clean lights, take care please, no falling off steps or ladders
    All junk off table and rehomed.
    Clean out fridge, out of date / fluffy food bin
    Clean extractor fan and replaced filter.
    Clean out a cupboard you have been dumping stuff in
    Do a meal plan for the next week, using up freezer / cupboard stock
    Garden put away summer toys / games / furniture
    Check all smoke alarms work
    Finish accounts
    Start wrapping Christmas presents
    £1 shop for bits
    Finish vistaprint order for work


    Another HHC from 2pm till 230pm ???

    If that was aimed at me, it's typing, not spelling lessons that I need :p :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I've decluttered my pasta and a yogurt (put tax disc in car while water was coming to the boil) and taken niece's b'day card to DB's...was going to walk but it is soooo miserable here that I went in the car and called at the village Post Office to put a top up on DS's phone...that's my weekly contribution to his Uni funds.

    Have also applied for a job advertised on the direct.gov website, and learnt how to use the ignore list.

    I am now going to have a quick cuppa coffee then start a

    HHC at 2.45pm...anyone up for it?
