I've been doing a bit of diary organisation - booked a visit to my godfather, and am sorting out dates for the bird-proofing/disinfecting of the attic. Just need to sort out all the other things that need dealing with this month.
I feel I ought to give my team presents as I'm leaving... but I'm not sure what. Any ideas? There are 5 of them, two girls, three boys (oh yes, and one is getting married on Friday... I must remember to check what's left on his wedding list!).0 -
Have noticed this weeks rooms not taking as long as last week. OH even helped out - without me asking!!!! hurrah!:j
I like this flying lark;)
