Don't tidy mlteenie. Lots of procrastinating tools at hand.


You probably have a large pile of magazines that need throwing out. This of course cannot be done until you have reread them. Fix yourself a large mug of coffee and settle down.

When I first read mlteenie's post I imagined she was referring to the forum needing a tidy - I imagined mlteenie neatly posting on long meandering threads, offering a concise summary, ending feuds, and gently offering a conclusion.

I now wonder if I have reache stage six of forumitis where I actually have no concept of life beyond the forum...help!

Well, I'm not alone now!


Macro, our house IS one of those sterile jobs, despite the efforts of the children.

BB - sadly I am messy, grumpy and insensitive although I seem to have plateaued at Forumitis L2. I did fancy having a go at the Forum, tho'.

PG - can't chuck out my mags - they are 'reference'. Of course, the goss mags can go right now, although he other half won't agree.

mlteenie - get off yer arse and tidy your gaff, sort through the piles of junk, dump the broken nik-naks, run the hoover round, blast through the place with a duster, scrub the kitchen floor then tackle the ironig. Don't worry, though - if your place is anything like ours, even after that, it will still be untidy.

If you have the urge to tidy, but can't bear the thought of throwing out your own stuff, come round here! I spend the whole of last Saturday tidying and throwing, and there's 10x that still left to do!


Seriously, if anyone knows someone who can help with this sort of thing, for cash, let me know.

I suspect that mlteenie was referring to the virtual world not reality.


I myself am fabulously tidy (OCD) but utterly slovenly when it comes to actual cleaning. That's why I've now got a cleaner even though I can't really afford it.


I agree with Macro (eek, must be getting old), a bit of dirt is good for the little blighters. Prevalence of allergies poss to do with over sterilisation.


Lousiana - there are actual people who will take your cash for coming round and helping you clear out the clutter in your house and mind.

    • Hello - If anybody has any hifi valve amplifiers, working or in need of restoration, I'm keen to buy such things from you! I particularly like amps from the 50s and 60s, the sort of thing you used to find in old sideboards, but ultimately anything with glass tubes sticking out of them is of interest to me. I am also in the market for good quality hifi items in general, particularly faulty items in need of fixing and restoration. This includes turntables, amplifiers, cd players, speakers, graphic EQs, cassette players, reel to reel players, etc. etc. Ultimately, all electronic musical objects are of intrigue to me. Many thanks, and hope to hear from you soon, -Scott 07956 853 538  
    • Using the smart CCTV cameras is your best strategy - particularly if they have adequate infra-red capability. Setting them to be triggered by line crossing or areas of intrusion is worthwhile setting up as is linking them to a PIR sensor. The PIR could also be used to activate a sounder but that might upset your other neighbours. I have a few cameras around our property and I enjoy reviewing the recordings and apart from foxes and birds, I catch the occasional opportunistic thief on camera - like this one last Tuesday. If you need any help, please drop me a PM. S7.mp4
    • Not in Ed, but I was in NE England over the weekend and saw an otter in the wild! Never seen one before, it was quite lovely.
    • Well unless the heron got them later, there were the  two cootlets. I think some others of this year's babies must have escaped the heron. Many years ago (and possibly still, though I never see them any more) there was a whole heron family on the island  - mum, dad and youngster. I don't know how long herons live. Maybe this one is the grown up youngster.
