    Kazm hugs, glad you have got through to DD and am thinking of you all as it must be so stressful in your house at the mo

    Just call me Poirot!

    remember I said there HAD to be a REASON DS desperately needed a phone?
    He's just brought her here - her name's Holly! ;)

    Loving the rat poison/babysitting comments.
    I thought it might be for her OH but decided to keep mouth shut (for a change LOL) as I am no good with OHs either - just can't seem to keep 'em LOL
    Still told her where to get it though:p

    re the half term list - I has one too!

    I cleared, tidied and put stuff away that didn't belong on the coffee table. I also tidied away the clutter in our bedroom and the spare room. OH still has ironing on his chair from 2 weeks ago so I have hung them all on hangers on the wardrobe in the spare room ( he doesn't have a decent wardrobe) and folded the clothes he is using on his chair...there was a pair of shorts there, if I'm not mistaken shorts weather ended quite a while ago in Scotland.

    I need to wash up before I go to pick OH up from work and I am going to attack my drawer in the LR too

    Greenbee - if I had read the no return instruction book I wouldn't have any children.

    Kazm - huge hugs for you. No advice, I just bin everything when people are not looking.

    Huge progress upstairs - half a bookcase and the building site bathroom to do then it is all clear for carpet washing on Wednesday. All four bedrooms done, deep clean on two.

    One last HHC 2.15-2.45 to finish the bookcase before I fetch the boys and make a start on downstairs. ETA Joining you Rose
