    Hi
    Can I join in again please? I tried to join in a while back but kinda got lost along the way. This time I am determined to get my house routine sorted and it just so happens that my plan tonight was the kitchen and dining room.
    Feel free to give me a virtual kick up the b*m if I get lost again, I may need it.

    [STRIKE]Clear and wipe worksurfaces[/STRIKE]
    Shine the sink!
    half done. will finish when i've done the last spot of washing from the cake that's just come out of the oven

    Level Two
    Wipe fronts of appliances and units
    will do washer once floor has dried and oven once it has cooled down. all other appliances are intergrated

    Evening all,

    Big hugs Vanilla.

    Tooch i did my Level 2 in 6 months, 3 days placement and 1 day in college a week. The work load outside of college wasn't too bad, i probably did half an hour a night if that. There was a lot of writing to do but once i figured out how to write up the pieces of evidence it was quiet easy. It's finding a job now that's the hard bit, it's been over a year since i finished and i still haven't got a job.:(

    My list is around here somewhere, i don't think i can cross much off though.

    Learning Welsh will really help Tooch. I've seen a few jobs that i couldn't apply for as i can't speak Welsh.
