TwiddleTigger Declutterers sign up here!
      #296448 - 04/01/2009 18:50

Tomorrow is Jan 5th and we're back to Twiddling. We're teaming up with HappyTigger who is getting us to move a bit and stop our assets spreading.

For January - at least, it may take longer - we will concentrate on decluttering so if there's anything particular you want to do then shout now.

I'm planning on doing a room or two a week so that those amongst us that work can catch up a bit.

Twiddle's Twenty will be back as soon as we've decluttered, this project will take more that twenty minutes for some of us!

You'll need a notepad, pen, laundry basket or big box and a smile on your face

See you Monday

I am ok with the notepad,pen, laundry basket or big box BUT you expect me to smile as well............now that is just not fair. We, reluctantly, agree we need to organise, twiddle and sort ourselves out. We are very grateful to you for advising us and keeping us on the straight and narrow!! But you are really pushing it to expect us to smile at the same time.........................

Ouch Mrs T that smacked bottom hurt...............with all the fat I have on the rear end, for that to hurt you must have really slapped me hard...............shame on you.

Hahaha, serves you right Thimble! Smiles are a very important part, even if the teeth are gritted like so:

Cat! You brought leopards! I thought they were just for the Tigger part of TwiddleTiggering but now I see we can use them whilst we work at decluttering.

Roll up, roll up, Cat has dry-cleaned leopards for you all!!

We're going to have fun, fun, fun!

fun, fun, fun..............you reckon! Sounds like hardwork to me................but I suppose I had better join in otherwise I will feel left out...........so as you say I will put a smile on my face - well I thik it is a smile!!!!

Don't you find leopards messy? Much prefer to have the wild birds in my garden! They are messy but very good for the lawn and I don't have to clear up after them.......

Is it my imagination or am I becoming sillier..........no please do not answer that.

Hi Mrs T.

Please sign me up. Could I go on the modified decluttering plan for those who work full time, but would still like to take part?

I am sitting in a completely de-cluttered room - my study - because I am decorating. Do I need a leopard to stop me putting all the clutter back when i have finished decorating? Help!!!

And does moving clutter from one room to another count, with or without a leopard. I do think I need help Mrs T.

One room to another is ok - but remember it will catch up with you as we're doing every room

Mrs T. moving slow will suit me just fine!

I dread to think what sort of shape I will be in tomorrow evening after the first day back at work!!!

Thimble, you will be ok tomorrow, remember if Mrs T. twiddles you too much, you can start her off knitting with a cable pattern!!! That'll learn her!

Hi Mrs T. I've only got one room that needs de-cluttering, possibly because that's where all the clutter is.!!!

Open door,step inside,survey contents,step outside,shut the door,and groan. Then put the kettle on.

Honestly though I will make a start tomorrow,no, on Monday, because 'tomorrow never comes' lol

Hope everyone has learnt the song ready to be 'Cheerleading'
before Mrs Twiddle and Happy Tigger get us all busying on Monday.


Please memorise,dressed and ready to start bright and early Monday morning.

Twiddles Tiggers get into line,
For this is the start of 2009.
Dusters ready,Polish to,
Vacuums plugged in,so much to do.
Turn on the music nice and loud,
Just for ten minutes to clear the cloud.
Of all that stale atmosphere,
That's been building up at this time of year.
First we start at the top of the house,
Brush those cobwebs,clear that louse,
We won't stop until we're done,
Then onto the Forum for some fun.


A 1 2 3 4 and.....(off we go)lol

Dippy do you need a bottle brush maybe? Hot soapy water should do it or if they aren't lead crystal I use the dishwasher!

Raring to go TwiddleTiggers!
Loving that ditty annemari, come and declutter your dreaded room with us!
