Afternoon
It is really cold and I've done very little, actually nothing. Oh got some coal on the way back from the garage and both cost loads so hope to get some of it back on my NCT sales.
Think I'll clean the bathroom and get DS2 to tidy his room for a quick clean.
I was going to town but it is too cold and I can't be bothered.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0 -

)
Hope everyone is ok

Almost all ironing done - it's slightly damp so needs to air and I don't want to overload the maiden.
Pots washed.
Work done. More to do...
Forgot to post that I have now got a new battery in the car key so I can lock the car even in the dark when I can't see the keyhole - and find it again in the car park:p
Have read Froddy's list and rather think I ought to vacuum the stairs - preferably before the heating comes on as it's a warm job!Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016
