    Not doing too well with the washing and ironing task for this week. I have done 3 loads of washing with 1 maybe 2 left to go. Haven't even thought about the ironing as I am exhausted with getting up early for work this morning. OH has said he will try and get some done tomorrow as he is still off. On a plus note the floors are clear and the house is surprisingly tidy apart from what has become our ironing dumping ground. Going to my mums on Thursday so I need to try and clear it ready for the washing that will come back with us.

    cyclingy - top news they've found a source for the pain. Hope things get sorted pretty soon now xx

    Piggers - are you going to post the lists for the last few days of the week as, I have the impression, you're going to be otherwise occupied by squeak over the next few days xxx :P

    Kitchen has been dysoned to death, dinner in the oven. Another glass of wine poured. Washing NOT put on the line because it looks like rain....

    Post 'em anyway - just in case you get to like those drugs they'll force down you and you'll be off on a cloud xx

    ETA - you could always change them as time and squeak permits. That would REALLY keep us on our toes xx
