Do you have one? Is it tidy?
My big task for today is to tidy mine. Everything gets chucked in there & its got to the stage where its beyond a joke. Last time i filled two black bags of junk.
Off to make a start, shouldent leave it so long, not looking forward to this pftttt

Isn't that where bad kids got locked??? I've only ever known one family with such a cupboard (most Australian houses are what you call bungalows and don't have stairs) and I found it really creepy.

Pam you watch way too many horror movies :wah:
Its where your electric meter, pipework ect is hidden, even bungalows must have such a cupboard?
I'm halfway through & everything from it is in the hallway, hope no-one visits as there is no chance of them getting in :-3
Having a coffee & ciggie break, found a few handy bits & pieces in there that i actually thought were lost so thats a bonus

oh, I used to wish we had one when I was a kid, you know hide and seek, and all that, here your plumbing and electric meter are on the outside of your home. And I agree,with, thought thats where bad children were kept, Harry Potter and all that.:-2

Why is everyone springcleaning??? You're almost in autumn!! It's me who's just entering spring - wattle everywhere - and I must admit there's a lot of people fiddling about in gardens and washing curtains etc.. I have no idea where my pipes are - well, the water heater's in the laundry. I thought the pipes were in the ceiling, or maybe under the house? Don't think I've ever had the need to know ... grin.

Australia's national flower, Indian Princess. And just about the first sign of spring here. The bush suddenly turns from olive grey to yellow... Awesome!!

I have one..it isn't tidy. I think there might be a by-law against such a state of affairs
