Lynz - I am about, just OH has had most of this week off ready for moving today - still not exchanged even so we have been off out and about. Everyone is now ready to sign but start of the chain have a boundary issue that is holding us all up again. Very bored of the stress now, as I am sure you are.

This evening I have had a good basic clean, children are in bed, DW is on, animals are fed and walked. I am tidying up the red stripe nicely (but not as much as TNG was obviously).

Have a good weekend everyone.

4. Basket - I have a small wicker one that is always at my side. I put anything that doesn't belong in the room that I'm doing into it. When it's full I use a 15min slot to put away. This is a great job to get the children doing.

Fantastic idea, will start doing this, thank you Penelope penguin :T
