    Lots of people let their houses out for TT and go away on holiday. I couldn't do that! The thought of strangers in my house! _pale_

    I'm in, kitchen is ideal for tomorrow as that's something that didn't get done today.

    P*ss off! Big time! :p - we've not even had the summer solstice yet!


    I know lovie, but i saw a kitchen in costco for £80 that is £125 in the shops so i had to get it for my boys to share. [IMG]file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/Michelle/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot-6.jpg[/IMG]http://www.elc.co.uk/toy/red-retro-kitchen/?scid=awin

    Also got DS1's birthday pressie for October (kiddie digital camera) as that was also £15 cheaper, and i know from past experience at costco buy it when you see it or it goes.

    I can only do it cos they are tiddlers who don't ask for anything. I won't be anywhere near as organised when i get them writing their lists to santa :rotfl:

    Flying - i started to scrub the cooker today with white vinegar, but i think it needs something stronger and some of DH's elbow grease as he is so much taller than me.

    The kitchen can have a big declutter as DS2 finished off the last tin of baby milk today so he can move onto a cup and i can get rid of the bottles and steriliser and pack away. On it tomorrow.

    Evening...or is it morning? :wave:

    I've been out in the garden all day. I treated myself to a petrol lawn mower, so BF had fun with that :D We still havent finished cutting the grass :rolleyes:

    Anyway, welcome back soappie. You and BB are most welcome to stay here on your tour of the UK.

    AnW'sMum - hugs for you xx

    What do those of you do who dont have a childrens room to clean? I'm wondering about splitting my kitchen and dining room as they are 2 separate rooms or counting the hall as one room as it has 4 large cupboards that always need doing.

    Hope everyone has a good week xx
