Wooop thanks ladies, I am in. Even if Pigpen is mean, she must have seen I wanted it to be the kitchen

Measure landing for where picture frames need to go
Check schools - see if they are open and if transport is on, take boys if it's on
Check neighbours before we leave, phone DPs Nana/Gran to make sure they are ok, so can collect essentials while we are out
Contact Dunelm re delivery date
Look online for tie backs
Clean mould off upstairs windows

Well - since I can no longer see the carpet in any part of my house I think I'd better ask you lovley ladies for some help. Please may I join in?

I'll start small and aim for level ones but having said that all of tomorrows tasks look acheivable so I can only try.
