    Freezer defrosted, I used the hair dryer on it for the first time and had it all done and reloaded in 15 mins :D

    That reminds me..... We had ASDA delivery on Saturday and yesterday I noticd that the freezer lid wasn't shut properly and it is now horribly iced up inside. DSs were helping me.:D

    I know they went away to uni and college two weeks ago. But they were home again. I will have to start charging for their keep at his rate.

    Morning all

    Not caught up yet.

    One load of washing on the line which seems to be drying quite well even though the sun is proving to be a bit shy.

    I think I've done today's list, except I haven't defrosted the freezer because I only did it a couple of weeks ago - Toots you'll have to adjudicate! I've also dusted and polished in the living room and the computer desk and vacuumed right through.

    I have got two freezers actually but I made sure when I got the new one that it was the sort you don't have to defrost! I hate that job.

    Hope everyone's OK, off to catch up a bit now.
  • Jinky how is your back passage of doom?

    Did I miss something :confused: On second thoughts, don't tell me - I really don't want to know _pale_

    Level One
    Level Two
    Wipe small appliances - need to do kettle and toaster once floor is dry!
    Level Three
    Clean out the fridge - will be done when floor is dry, not too much in there
    Extras
    1. Wash windows
    2. Clear and wipe all sills

    OMG I am in danger of getting a star :rotfl:
    Not sure how to defrost the freezer - do you need to switch it off, empty it out and then blast the ice with the hairdryer? Then switch back on and refill neatly and tidly!

    This is exactly what I did, it was so quick I could just leave the baskets out on the floor whilst I did it.
