    Just like to than Sazzy and MissH-i've never posted on the flying thread but just managed to get so much done in half an hour thanks to your inspiration. Emptied wm and put into td. Sorted another load and got in wm. Washed up and then cleaned the walls, tiles and work surface, canisters, mugs, kettle etc in a corner that mustn't have been done for (dare I saw it!!) well over a year!!
    Will do another 30 mins later has have a hospital appointment to set off for in a few mins-just enough time to clean cats tray and empty the bin before I go.

    Not much flying going to be done here today - off to a playcentre shortly, been and done the shopping this morning. Tidied the floor though, may dust in a minute.........

  • Oh dear. Just emptied the hoover for the 4th time..... The livingroom was very very dirty.
    On the plus side, I've hoovered the sofa, put all the playstation gubbins into it's own plastic box with games etc so it's easier to clean round, and the floor is now cleared. Two chairs and the dusting to do now.
