I was watching my (almost 7 year old) GD the other evening. She had her pad and paper and was making lists.
My favourite colours
My favourite people
My favourite teachers etc. 
I loved lists when I was a child and still make them today albeit with more boring headings such as; Bills to pay etc.
I love lists - at work I've been christened the 'list queen'. I enjoy putting something on that I have already done, just for the pleasure of crossing it off. Then when it gets too messy, I start a new list, all nice and tidy until the next time! Sad!! 
Thanks Cari
Hello Ariadne Haven't been forced to adopt my alter ego yet but ready with my name just incase I should upset anyone !
I have those exact same Cath Kidston notebooks Gracesmum I have the diary too. Aren't they just lovely?
This morning I have 53 things on my list. (It was 54 but I have just crossed out: "Ask Cari if yoga's app works on an iPhone.") I am ashamed to say this is a really good number for me. Has been known to hit 100. Can't quite see why the list gets longer during the week. 
Crikey Geraldine 100 is an awful lot of things to have on your TO DO LIST
unless you are counting things like:
Get up,
Brush teeth
Get washed
Get dressed
Have breakfast
My DH works in engineering and recently worked with some Japanese visitors in Nissan car factory. He was walking around "the job" saying "I will put this on my "To Do" list, making notes as he went around.
A week later he returned to site and met up with the same engineers who announced that they too had "TOE DOE " lists and had printed special sheets out all headed with ............ TOE DOE
