    Sorry slightly off topic I know BUT.........Didn't they have a video where they were dressed as women doing housework ? Was it 'I want to break free ' ? :D

    Thats right.... such a good video and even now people say how original and funny it is. I cant think of a band that has done anything similar. Any my house work music,as discovered only yesterday :o, is anything remotely soppy or lovey dovey.. I found it got me so annoyed that I had lots of anger/energy to use!

    Ive my own place and always found using the weekends to tackle housework was the way forward. Looked at flylady thread but would be too much pressure.

    I'm a stickler for lists so find it easier to write down all the wee jobs I want to get done. Its satifying ticking them off

    For laundry - shove it in on a Friday and get it hanging up/in dryer that night - can iron/put away over weekend.

    Ive found I choose a room to do a really good clean in each weekend - rotate rooms about, means u get around to everything
