Please don't give me less than a 5 .......I'll go and buy some Lock n Locks..........

 

So you would like me to be more 'Len Goodman' than 'Craig Revel Horwood' ............ I've got my scoring paddles at the ready

[Lesley]

No, you can be Bruno

 

and don't forget.....I know where you live.......

[hillfamily]

I don't think even I could get that passionate about a tidy kitchen cupboard

[Cinnamon]

I am speechless Pam - what an amazing cupboard

 

By the way, have you ever seen 'sleeping with the enemy' where her hubby makes her stack everything in size order,with the labels facing out

Yes I have .........but I'm not quite that psychotic about my cupboards

Well, you've made me realise how messy our house is, especially my stuff and I've actually started tidying up. Have filled up Mum's charity box and another bag too, chucked out a huge pile of paper too. I'm doing it in stages and everything I want to keep is going in boxes and then shelves and things are being dusted, then it will all be put back again! So far it's going well, but I'm too busy and won;t be able to do any more until the weekend as tomorrow I'm performing at the Royal Albert Hall, Thursday I'm going to a college open evening and Friday I'll be asleep!

I don't do the 'cleaning' part of OCD anymore Clare - not since we moved to the farm............but I do still have to have things in straight lines and not moved even by 1cm ......and I straighten leaflets and cards in shops.....and colour co-ordinate the envelopes

 

It's bugging me that I didn't have plastic baskets all the same colour - I'll have to keep the door closed.

Wow, Pam, great to see you back and I am seriously impressed by your kitchen cupboards. Please note that I shall not be volunteering any snaps of my cupboards for inspection though. (I was a much more prolific poster on the untidy rooms thread that ran a few months ago though )

 

Can I suggest that you don't do what I did though....I needed to pack the contents of a 4 bedroom house into a 20foot container and I was ruthless, got rid of so much stuff and felt quite chuffed after I'd done it. Now I'm missing some of that "stuff" .....and I'm actually gradually replacing it all

I'm right with you on this one Lesley...........although I sometimes find closed cupboard doors don't always help

Been very careful not to do this - I've learnt form past experiences and house moves

[Guest]

I see you have a Lock & Lock fetish. You possibly have more of them than Christian does......and that is saying something!

 

Oh dear - I thought that was just me that had loads of those (they're great aren;t they!)!

 

I've been having a mega clearout lately.......I started with the husband - got rid of the biggest waste of space first!

 

Then I decorated all through the house and then attacked the loft - and emptied it so that I could have the insulation topped up!!!!

 

I either gave stuff away, freecycled it, e-bayed it or sent it to the charity shops. When I am finished.......I will start all over again - if I haven't used it since I put it away - then I reckon I don't need it!!

 

Oh - and I have decorated the house right through - I am on the last room now , which is HArrys room (9 years old) ...........ummmm I may be a while!

Pam! Pam!!!! - where have I put the rice?????

[hillfamily]

Pam! Pam!!!! - where have I put the rice?????

 

Have you not put it in a lock lock box, clearly labelled 'rice'......with the label to front of the cupboard

[Lesley]

Obviously not

 

I did find the box with it in.......in the wrong cupboard.....it wasn't the logical place, so I moved it

Glad you found it ....... and moved it to a better more logical place
