    no.. twas me.. had a musical interlude between loo runs school runs and actualy was awake.. have been snoring most of the afternoon after an arduous trip out..

    thought it might be easier to put up tomorrows list so it doesn't get missed.. makes it easier for all concerned.

    Hope you feel better soon - and I hope Toots does too.

    Meanwhile - I've done the living pit list today, so it'll be bathrooms tomorrow.

    I didn't do the cupboard under the stairs, as that is Other Half's domain. I have warned him that it is to be cleared out on the weekend though ;-)

    Hey Soappie (that's who's keeping track of stars today, right?) - star please :-)
