    DS2 emptied the DW and got the ironing board out.

    DS1 has created the following washing today
    - one complete ref kit
    - one set of thermals
    - one set of golf clothes
    - one set of cricket clothes

    Ahem. So is DS1's next lesson "how to use the washer";)

    Washing up
    Defrost turkey joint and cook
    Sweep floor and mop
    Laundry
    Put away dry washing
    Empty and fold washing from TD
    Tidy away gibble
    Bathrooms + loo
    Clean all rooms
    Go through bathroom cupboard for throwing session
    Study
    Finish x-stitch filing
    1 hr fizzy moon picture
    Bedroom
    Go through the stuff on the wardrobe floor
    Chuck out all old uniform

    That should be enough to be going on with!!!!
    I'd rather be watching CSI!

    Good morning flyladies:D Thank you to all who organise this thread.
    Today I have hoovered the whole of the downstairs and swept the stairs.
    Quillion I am thinking of you.

    We get a decision on our business loan application tomorrow and I am excited and worried at the same time so I am going to keep myself occupied as much as possible today. Going out for a 'Christmas' lunch tomorrow. It was postponed because of the bad weather.

    TD x 1 as still too wet to put things outside.

    Tighten and wobbly pan handles!! not applicable, they're welded on...

    Ahem. :o Did some of this yesterday due to repotting of Swiss Cheese plant: also cleaned and moved 2 shelves of stuff due to potbound Swiss Cheese plant falling over and re distributing some compost...:D
    Still, it meant I cleared a whole corner and found some glasses we didn't need so they can go to the charity shop, along with the other decluttered items.
