    Took a bit more than HH (the joys of dragon-ownership!):D but all the flat surfaces in the hall, lounge and bedroom have now been dusted, and the patio door and adjoining (door-sized) window have been cleaned.

    Also, as Mr LW bought some draught Thatchers cider in the pub on Sunday, I've pinched some to make a cider cake for tomorrow.;)
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)
