    :jGood morning :j
    Hugs to everyone who needs them. I haven't read through the posts this morning yet.
    I have a guest tomorrow or three days so I am so pleased to find the spare room included as I need to sort it out.

    It is really DDs room but she has almost emptied it. She doesn't know what to do with her cuddly toys. Doesn't want to take them all to her new 'married' home. But also doesn't want to get rid of them all.

    I will NOT be doing DSs rooms as they still smell! Rooms not sons. And they are big enough and old enough to do their own rooms.
