    Is it worth cleaning the sofas now when I'm just about to collect the kids or should I wait till later tonight to clean them? They are being collected tonight by BIL. Getting new ones tomorrow. Underneath has been cleaned and inside them, just the outside to do now.

    New kids tomorrow eh! Better make sure the old ones are clean underneath before they go :rotfl:

    Toots take it easy! Can't believe how quick you got the star chart updated. Great to have you back where you belong :D

    MO477 commiserations, it's they who are missing out, keep your wonderful PMA and the right thing will turn up soon.

    Hugs to you Dusty, that must be so hard to do. Perhaps you could advertise the shed on freecycle if it is not something you want yourself. Stipulate the receiver must dismantle it.

    Ironing brought upstairs, will be homed in a mintue. Pressie dropped at SW3's :) dinner on the go now.

    Thanks I did think that but I think it is really old and cranky and doubt it would survive that. I'm going to write a plan later of what I hope to do on different days, break it into chunks of tasks and see if it becomes more manageable.

    ?freezing - can I freeze leeks and can I freeze mascarpone?

    I freeze both - mascarpone usually needs to be stirred, but it tastes fine!

    TOOTS!!! Welcome home!!! We missed you!!! (you might have noticed that!)
