When having a lie in make sure you set your alarm as usual the night before, no point in having a lie in if you don't know your having one!!

Excellent Lyndi! But there is another way.....

Save electricity by shortening the cables to all your household electric appliances.

Re the directory: you could pester everyone with the same surname as you and see if they fit into your family tree somewhere.

Brilliant idea Ian!
You didn't mention that while we are all busy trawling through the directories with our pen at the ready, we won't need to have our pc turned on so we will save all that energy at the same time.
Excellent!

OK, I'll start you off.

Old telephone directories make ideal personal address books. Simply cross out the names and address of people you don't know

On a family site like this, I think it would be nice to share little tips that are a god send for getting through life every day.

So any tips that you think fit the bill, feel free to add them, whether it be for preventing household waste, saving the environment or simply making life easier!
