    Well i have more washing on the line and another load in the WM. All shopping has been put away and I have sorted out the worksurface where the bread bin and everything is, cleaned all the bits, thrown away my bread bin as it had got mould underneath - it must have got wet at some point and there was a big black patch on the worksurface underneath so that's now been bleached.

    Still loads more to do though.

    Afternoon all

    Soappie - I finished the bathroom this morning so can I have my third and final star for the week please.

    Toots - hope you are resting. Bites are still itchy but not as much heat in them so think I'm over the worst

    Off to dig up my first lot of spuds - hope they are ready as we don't have any others.

    I completely agree about FB it does feel a bit weird!! I don't use it much because I get confused about who's who, and because it feels a little odd too. I like the anonymity on here. :D:D:D
