Attention ladies!

Hi MG, "Pets" will be added also, thank you! A tips section for home care would be useful, I'll have to see whether it gets its own forum or not.

Wow the list is really growing. I hope it's not too many forums. That's the problem with a new website and many forums, until the momentum of posts starts building many individual forums will remain quiet and that doesn't look good to visitors. Going to have to think long and hard how to alleviate that problem!

I did some thinking and that list of forums is completely overwhelming So instead it may be better to start more simple and if needs be then to add sub-forums. So the list now reads:
