    Loaded WM, unloaded and loaded DW, S&S'd kitchen and downstairs loo, put away stuff in LR and hoovered the ground floor and the stairs.

    I have a business proposal to write by close of play for a day, a TUPE article I promised for a newsletter and I need to do some work on my website for the link from the newsletter in the hope it generates some work for me. Just CBA :o

    Toots - Oz is very well fed thankyou, mostly by my next door neighbours :p. It would have been better if he had eaten Mr. Fish, not just left bits of him all over the DR floor.

    Serena - I have run out of funds for the garden - all projects on hold. DH kindly spent all the disposable from now till Christmas on an 'essential' machine :rolleyes:. He can now make lovely skirting boards, and door frames, and cupboard doors etc to a professional standard so it will eventually pay for itself. No rain for here either, having to water key stuff and the butts are empty too.

  • Completely failed on my HHC.....

    Saw the remains of the roast last night, and decided to cut the rest of the meat off the bones, make stock and wash up the carving tray.

    Trouble is - I like cooking w-a-a-a-a-y more than cleaning! :confused:

    Now: should I make curry for the next 20 mins, or get down to some cleaning?:rolleyes:

    Hmm. I could always do the curry first, then start the HHC at 10:00... For real. Honest.

    Yup. That's what I'll do. Off to cook.... :o
