    That's actually something I'm not good at, I tidy, but I don't get the marigolds on and clean. Bathroom and kitchen get done when needed, but I'm not as fussy about them as the likes of my brother (considerably fussier than some people I know though), although my flat is generally tidier than his overall.

    Who said I wear Marigolds?

    I just get on with it, scrub and clean while I have some music pumping with at least 120 bpm and some dirty bass lines and before you know it, the cleanings done.

    I find cleaning up when you drunk is best, takes more than twice as long however it feels like it takes half the time, and waking up (hung over) in the morning to everything clean is great.

    I'm getting better at tidy (ruthlessness with throwing / donating things that haven't moved in 3 years in my flat) and cleaning gets done in-depth when needed (someone visiting/getting annoyed with it)

    Re: Are you a tidy person ?

    It's definitely easier to clean and tidy when a certain point of tidyness has been reached. If things become worse it takes a huge amount of effort to raise things to the 'moderately tidy' level.

    The worst my study ever got was losing a 17" CRT monitor for two minutes..

    That sounds pretty much exactly like me too. The same applies to decorating: my sister and her family are coming to stay in a couple of weeks, so the bathroom just got painted

    Re: Are you a tidy person ?

    hmm I'm thinking of doing some before and after pics of when I do the deed so you can see how messy I am. Doesn't help that I have a small room though.

    I'm about as tidy as you'd expect from a sad loner type who spends all his time in front of his computer....

    This is bunny and friends. He is fed up waiting for everyone to help him out, and decided to help himself instead!

    That's usually when most of my tidying happens too. The place got blitzed big time when Nikkie came up last week
