    Hoovered through
    Tidied girls room (quick 5 min pick up - otherwise known as damage limitation)
    Filled recycling bin
    Tidied our room (again 5 min pick up)
    Refilled loo roll basket - swear the kids eat the stuff:eek:

    Next HHC

    Mop kitchen, bathroom and porch
    Scrub bathroom
    Bung stuff in BM
    Bung WM on and peg out - its brightened up
    Sorting ironing pile into - urgent - would be good to do - put at bottom and ignore till next time
  • Thanks G&B, Dusty and LL and Happy Birthday for tomorrow LL :D

    In my slightly extended HHC I :

    S&S the kitchen
    DW
    WMx1
    TDx1
    Swept BR floor
    Mopped BR floor with new mop :mad: I hate mops, and always end up cleaning the floor with a teatowel and my feet... best way for me. :D
    Cleaned the shelf unit in the BR
    Cleaned the back of the loo ( hate that job )
    Toasted a large marshmellow with a kitchen blow torch for DD2 (and then ate it cos she didn't like it. :rolleyes: :p :drool: )
    Discovered the very organised Easter Bunny had bought chocolate bunnies for DD1 & DD2 and sweets for DD3, but forgetful Easter Bunny neglected to remind Mummy :o So Children had something from us after all!!! :rotfl:

    How did you all do?

    **cough, cough, splutter, splutter,**

    Just gone a bit bleach tastic in the bathroom.:rolleyes: It don't arf get down my throat and gives me a headache:rolleyes::rolleyes: But.................the grout around the tiles is getting whiter as I type:D and so is the sealant (in places) round the bath. I am determined to rid the sealant in the whole house of black, yucky mouldy stuff.

    It sounds like my house is teaming with mould:eek: . It's not honest:o. I just want it all the iffy bits to look pretty and white. Gonna do the light pulls in the bathroom and d/s loo as well. That's a Kim and Aggie tip;)

    Off to locate my list again.

    Hi shell and welcome back :D

    Meeting DD this morning then doing my meeting and greeting.

    Will do the Bathroom tonight.Glad its today as I want the plumber coming tomorrow to have a look. I want a new bathroom suite in and cant decide to just have a walk in shower instead of bath and shower. Im worried that if I have to sell the house it wont sell cos of no bath.

    Have not caught up with all the thread yet.

    Hugs to all who need one.

    Toots Thinking of you.

    Count me in pen pen :)

    Just decluttered kids int a nice warm deep bath which should keep them happy for a while ;)

    tooch that sounds just like our fold out table. What about skewer sticks or rather more drastically tipping the caravan up :eek: :rotfl: seriously though will it not come off, possibly secured with a few screws at the sides?
