    Does anyone want to do another HHC 11.30-12?
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    Morning all

    One load of washing done, I hung the big things outside and they've dried although the clouds are building now. I put the socks and underwear on the airer and they can stay there.

    Dusted and polished living room, cleaned television screen etc. No plants in there to see to. Vacuumed right through downstairs but I forgot to vacuum the stairs (they are clear though). I will try to remember them tomorrow.

    Waiting for Asda delivery now.

    I do have two plants in the kitchen, an aloe vera and a cactus (with no name) which has just flowered. It doesn't flower every year but it's spectacular when it does although the flowers only last 24 hours. There are two out today, but there are also some more buds on there.

    lol, very true.

    Have done my dishes, S&S'd the kitchen, eaten my weight in custard creams and done a chapter of studying.
    Dont know if anyone is signed up to Boffer? But they currently have a Phillips epilator that is usually about £60 for £12.99 + £2.99 p+p. Have ordered myself one;)
