All the floors except the sitting room done, and that is currently inaccessible as there are chairs to go over to OH's and other bits and pieces needing homes.

Windows are filthy (inside - outside is fine as I pay someone to do them). Floors need washing, dust needs evicting, but it's all going to have to wait...
