    Tootles - I love that...so true!

    Dusty - we don't have anything on the landing but i'm a bu**er for putting clothes on the banister up there. In fact, i'm going to go and see what's on it now and clear it!

    Hugs to all xx
  • Funny places landings, full of stuff waiting for something.

    Apart from what should be there (2 cat baskets and a little chair and a library chair for me) what is on the floor of your landing?

    A bookcase (which fits nicely into a little alcove type thingy at the top of the stairs) and .......... nothing else :D
    A huge pile of LPs that is about to double in size as all the LPs from the DR are going upstairs. (eventually the records will go into the loft... which needs boarding first :rolleyes: )

    Not a good place to store records - unless it's a conversion up there. The change in temperature will more than likely warp them.

    ETA - I see that's already been mentioned!

    I have made a total of 6 meals, done 2 loads of washing, watched a Grand Prix, washed up, cleaned the kitchen surfaces, cleaned the bathroom, washed my hair, and sorted a box.

    I need to find my list as I may be due a star!

  • :TToots loved the TWO GLASSES OF WINE story - so true!

    I am pleased that you mentioned that at this stage, because yet again I have spent the afternoon on beach with my DD and GS :o:o (swam twice - was OK once you got swimming) and felt guilty for not flying. But we had a great time and the weather was so lovely...;)

    I did however strip bedding, WM x 3, decluttered and cleaned surfaces in kitchen, washed up and put away and went for a bike ride with a friend for an hour this morning. O yes, cleaned loo, bath & basin prior to having a bath and hairwash tonight. Will do ironing in a bit and get ready for my last week at work.

    Dusty on my landing I have bookshelves, one more box of bootfair stuff and lots of clothes draped here and there... Roll on 5th October!

    *wails*

    ALL MY Vinyl (LPs and singles) is in my loft...

    having said that they are stored vertically which is supposed to help.

    why I keep them though I do not know, really...

    Belay my last about my 'landing' being just shelves and bookcases.:o

    DD has gone through some of her old things this evening and there are now piles of books on the floor - but she has labelled them which, I guess is a good thing. They're labelled "sell" "bin" and "charity shop". Guess Mother will be taking them to the charity shop for her tomorrow....
