there was some talk when we suggested the environment thread of the two being combined

I thought at the time it was a good idea: at least it would keep out the feckers who bleached their entire house and snorted at people who didn't use fabric conditioner

I too would like to hang out in a housekeeping thread; I could contribute to it's sense of serenity and order with a drop of the sweet orange oil I use when mopping my wooden floors

housekeeping makes sense

Cappucino · 23/05/2006 09:49

though I also wouldn't mind if it was combined with the environment one so that I wouldn't get lost on the way between them and end up joining in threads I don't actually have time for
