Chimney sweep's been :j I had to roll back the carpet, so I took the opportunity to sweep and mop the floor underneath, and hoover the back of the carpet I've also had a go at removing what looks like an ancient red wine stain.

I'm going to do another HHC 11:40 - 12:10, then DD and her friends are coming back for lunch between GCSE exams :j

MY IRONING PILE HAS GONE, WOOHOO

only got whats in the machine now, will hope fully do those as soon as they are dry.
After work, I'm going straight upstairs to do the list before picking up DD and taking her swimming

Rosepink, my mum just couldn't work it out in english, only in irish

Carol, I don't think anyone in my family can remember much of their irish, I have never heard them use it in conversation, a shame really.......

Off to work now, catch you all some time later

Put away dry washing
Hung out wet washing
Started WM
Put all washing on kitchen floor in the laundry basket and tidied the kitchen floor
Put all paper waiting by front door to be recycled in a bag so it looks tidier
