    Morning all

    Bathroom/toilet done today - don't know if that's today's list but when it comes round please can I have a star for it Toots :)

    I've also resalted the back path, cleared some pavement outside the back gate and salted that. The sun is shining in the back of the house today and it makes it so much warmer.

    I see it's spare rooms today - I did all the bedrooms yesterday so that's covered too.
