    In the HHC, I cleaned the bathroom as I didn't get round it to it last week :o altho it was done on Sunday so not too bad...I even cleaned the tiles
    I put away dry washing and put out wet washing to dry
    and I got the hoover out ready to hoover in the next HHC
    ETA Oh and I cleared th floor ready to hoover
    How did you get on FFPrincess?

    Anyone want to do an HHC at 12?

    I'm a bit confused about the St David's Day banner at the top, was this there yesterday and I just missed it? I notice that the daily thread is showing 2 March, so they've caught up with the rest of us! :rolleyes:

    I'll join you at 12 rosepink.

    Just spent the morning being productive - have called one school and asked for an application (job closes on Friday) and they are sending it out in the post to me tonight, and have been to local school and collected application form and have spent the rest of the morning filling it out by hand. Will take it round later if I know I'm not working this avo (there's still time for the agency to call yet).

    Just taken the clean sheets out to the TD and was questioned by MIL (in her garden next door) about whether I would be hanging it out - seeing as the washing line is obviously knackered (strings falling off all round) I would've thought that'd be obvious, but no, I had to justify why I was putting it in the TD! Also just hoovered the carpet in the living room as more soot had come down the chimney and also hoovered the hallway whilst I was at it.

    Going to make a quick cup of tea before I dust the bedroom (not done last week) and reload WM to try and clear some of the floordrobe of dirty laundry (won't put it on until I know I'll be in to put it in the TD to dry as don't want it getting forgotten about).
