    Nanamia I can't seem to do strike through or coloured text on my iPad, there might be a way but I've only just worked out how to copy and paster on it :D
    I can, but it's tedious... Use piggers' suggestion instead...

    Great to see you PenPen... Glad you're enjoying work.

    My house is NOT staying clean and tidy :mad: and I need to do something about it...

    Welcome back
    Thank you Dusty x

    Just going to have a look at the list now :)
    Also have a cake to bake tonight - should have done it earlier but have been ill - again! To be honest I think the reason we all seem to be ill regularly is to do with the damp in the house! I need to apply for a grant - we haven't qualified so far because we are not elderly, our children are not young and no disabilities - elderly, very young or people with disabilities take priority which is how it should be but I feel very trapped at the moment.
    Anyway - little moan over I need to write a list to get the clutter out of my head so that I can focus :)

    Everything happens for a reason :)

    And sorry again that I can't keep up with the thread (it's just too busy for me to juggle flying and work):o

    I have to say I'm noticing a big difference already. Lots of the big jobs I hate doing during my hols are slowly being done bit by bit. I actually started decluttering a cupboard that hasn't been done for almost 2 years. Doom cupboard.
