    Evening all

    Feel asleep on the sofa for a while so awake now. I've put the DW and WM on and nearly cleared up in the kitchen. Cats are going stir crazy with the snow now - the queen was even chasing her own tail earlier out of boredom, something she never does.

    Plan for tomorrow is to walk into town to by some christmas cards for local delivery and for the kids to tidy their rooms.

    Bedrooms all to be cleaned by Tuesday night
    Kitchen to be done by Wednesday night
    bathrooms to be done by Thursday night
    living room/family room to be done on Friday.

    Plus I'll see what I can do off Piggers list.

    Piggers I don't think Toots will be on tonight and I think Asbo is otherwise engaged and Soappie is off line do you still want us to stay off the new thread?
