    Bathroom done minus the floor which I will hoover when I take the hoover up to do DS3 room later.

    We have unexpected sun. More bedding in the WM. Off to the shower now and then I'll do lunch and collect my bike on the way to town.

    Need to decide on dinner, think I'll meal plan for the week as I so don't know what to do everyday at the moment.
