    Wow gunsandbanjos you've done a lot of your list already! :T

    Welcome Valli - I've been away from flying for a while, and only joined in again on Thursday when I broke up from school (teacher), and already I've found myself addicted to refreshing the thread. :o

    Is anyone up for a 1/2 hour challenge? 10.30-11? I feel the need for some more motivation.

    Welcome Valli you sound mega organised already!

    Kids in the garden and my motivation is, well I don't know to be honest.

    Going to have a cuppa and a choc digestive and then I think I'll do the living room as I don't feel like doing anything else and at least I wont be starting the week behind.

    Morning all

    Welcome newcomers :)

    Good luck ssl with the interview.

    One load of washing out on the line, drying well. It's still hot here and very humid, not as sunny.

    I've done the kitchen (I still stick to the "old" ways ;)) and dusted the living room and vacuumed right through downstairs.

    Coffee time.

    I'm currently sorting out the set of drawers in the LR - don't ask me why I decided to do that first instead of hoovering and dusting but hey! Washing on the line and about to put another load in.

    Why do I keep so much rubbish?

    I've done a waitrose order to save £10 and have it ordered. Not a full shop but some bits on offer and some basic stuff I need.

    Going to put washing out next.
