    Greenbee well done to you and your dad, you always seem to get so much done in the garden.
    You think i get lots done?! Have you looked at your own lists recently???? You've done a vast amount.

    Went to the office today and got quite a bit of work done. My dad chopped some logs, cut the hedges, moved some topsoil, and a few other bits. Need to spend this week s&sing and doing odd jobs in the garden.

    I've booked to look at a couple more houses on thursday so I'm still looking at things. The weekend will involve packing :( which some of you already know I hate...

    Haven't caught up properly but sorry to hear there are so many littlies with nasty bugs.

    I've tried all sorts of ways and TBH the best way is to bite the bullet get a damp microfibre cloth and wipe them individually, I use my thumb under the slate and index finger on top so both sides are done at once. It is boring but satisfying once done. I only do them about once every six months.

    Ironing all done.
    Floors hoovered and mopped.

    Tomorrow
    hoover family room sofa
    dust family room
