Thanks for the link Greenbee...didn't know you couldn't release them. We need some work doing on the chimney in the loft and on the roof so I'm going to make DH clear it out, check for babies and get the access blocked up.
Been to the shops now, lunch consumed and DD2 in bed and WM on again, so I'm having a coffee then I'll tackle the bedroom. :eek:0 -

Aha, just remembered :doh:(foggy head) THATS what I wanted to do, get some small baskets and sort through my food cupboards as I have various ingredients scattered everywhere. I want to get all sauces in one, all herbs/spices in another, etc.
Right I'll pop out to get some in a mo.;)
I do that Triker makes it so much easier.

Pest control person is late... is this a good reason to go out, or should I just get on and do the ironing? I can't start baking if he's going to turn up in the middle of it. But he's not getting the job...0

OK had to retidy the front room again (kids), but by keeping on top of it as we go its starting to generally be tidyier all around. This means on it's day it gets polished/dusted/hoovered under furniture or one of the jobs which usually gets missed lol.
Put a wash on the maiden to dry (hammering down outside) and another wash in the machine. Couldn't do the couch covers yesterday or today cos of rain.
Aiming for level 1 and some of 2 I think. Plus do the bit of washing up left in the sink.
