    Flower thanks for the link. I think horseradish would be a really good addition. Thanks everyone for the help re: fishcakes. They turned out really well, and were well received by the family too.

    I've :
    cleaned the kitchen after dinner's mess
    emptied and cleaned the bin
    cleaned the hob
    wiped down the front of the cooker
    cleaned the work surfaces... again :rolleyes:
    TD x 1 & clothes folded
    lunch bags emptied and bottles washed
    lunches taken out of the freezer for tomorrow
    DR table sluiced down

    And now I'm going see my mate at her office and have a quick coffee with her... much to OH's disgruntlement! :rolleyes: .... bothered.... not.

    Morning all!

    As it's my first week I'm quite keen, so this morning I have already:
    • Done some dishes
    • Taken food out for dinner (Something I never remember to do, leaving many meals of cheese on toast to eat!)
    • Taken the bins out
    • Tidied bathroom in preparation for plumber coming
    • S&S in living room
    • Decluttered floor in living room and the stairs (Hall not done yet as bathroom things had to go in there!)
    • Done a load of washing

    Evening all!

    Magnificent Monday - Living room, hall, stairs and porch!Done!
    Level One

    I also did my aims of clearing the bathroom for the plumber coming and the washing will be put away in ten minutes time!

    Hmmm...what to do tomorrow!!

    4. Use feminine wiles to get t'other half to do the dishes...
    It's all going ok so far, and tomorrow's list is looking good. We'll see how well it's going by Friday though :rotfl:

    JJ - please send Polka my sincerest sympathies.
    AnW'sMum - thanks for the news on Toots
    Miss A - lovely speech - hope you enjoyed cubs.

    Am surviving. Have done nothing at all all day apart from a cursory swipe of the kitchen. Am going to attempt some dinner. This could be interesting...

  • AnW'smum thanks for the update on toots wasn't sure if this was what you meant cause I is bit thick at times;)

    Miss A lovely speech I'm sure Nana and Grandad will be thrilled.

    Still not found my ring I haven't been out today so it must be in the house. I have checked the washing green not there and in the bin not there either. I think I may have to clean the [strike]bedroom[/strike] pit of doom tomorrow as it's neither in WM, TD and it can't fall down any plug holes. I did ask HRH but she says she's not seen it so lets hope she hasn't!
