Why do we never get to 101

101 Uses For is popular and let's hope it stays that way. Our second book is presently called 101 tips for self sufficiency; we will certainly dip into this section for ideas. So post away and let's try and get at least one thread up to 101.

Why do we never get to 101

1. someone starts an identical topic with a slightly different title thinking that it is an original idea but don't bother to search to see if there is a similar topic already on.

2 we repeat ourselves

Someone answers without numbering it and we loose track!
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!

5. We should rename the subject "5 uses for...." then we might get there.

hmmmmm - not so sure about prefering cucumbers - they can't cut the lawn or get the drinks in and they come in your salad!! :shock:

Oh you jokers...... :lol:

In answer to the serious question, perhaps it is just the fact that there really aren't 101 uses for old tyres, tetrapacks, pairs of tights etc!
