    Another productive day on Tuesday for me, although I didn't do filters or the top of the fridge for Level 3 glory and didn't have chance to start on our 'dining area' which is doubling and trebling as many things at the moment!

    I sorted through a heap of paperwork, some of which had been around for 6 months (or more :o), found some vouchers and a sample sachet of posh coffee - a real bonus as I'd run out completely and was putting opff buying a new jar. (Cold turkey!) DH noticed the difference and commented - then checked the top of the fridge and sighed loudly. :rolleyes:

    Bathroom is only small so that's achieveable later and I'll tidy this table instead of the 'study', so that I can prep for tomorrow's interview.
