    Managed to contact Npower and sort out electric bill. Turns out they are only doing 6 monthly bills now. Sorted house and buildings insurance to half of what I was paying.

    Still have the bike here as I didnt have time to take it to the police station.

    Went to see mum who was fine.

    Well, I've had a reasonable day (by my standards!).

    3 loads of washing
    Mr. T
    Ironing (nearly caught up on pile made over Christmas)
    Cleaned ensuite
    Cleaned downstairs loo

    Haven't cleaned family bathroom, but I've done heaps more than I would have done today if I hadn't found this forum - so thank you everyone! :j

    I've read some of the thread - don't think I'm going to be able to keep up with it if it keeps growing this much though!

    DH has cooked tea as he's been off today and I've had an Inset day - Building Learning Power!

    I want to watch Dispatches at 8 but will probably have to watch it upstairs as Corrie is on in the middle of it.

    Hope everyone's well

    Thank you ladies - I now have a sparkling clean bathroom on a Monday :rotfl:
    Squares knitted for my throw ~ 90 (yes!!! I have finally finished it :rotfl: )
    Squares made for my patchwork quilt ~ 80 (only the "actual" quilting to do now :rotfl:)
  • Evening all,

    quick question in between watching in the night garden with DS and making dinner for DH.

    When will Tuesday's list be put up and will it have it's own thread type thing? Sorry if this is obvious to everyone but I'm new:confused:

    Thanks
