    Wish we had some of that sun here. We ate dinner at 1pm with the lights on cos it was so dark!!

    Hence my washing is in the tumble drier, on the radiators, and hanging on the shower rail

    I'm afraid the CBA mood is here too! Gilly 1964 - maybe I need that foot of yours too! :p

    On the topic of ironing.........most of the time our iron only sees daylight when there's Hama beads waiting to be ironed. :D

    A very belated happy new year. I haven't been on here for a while, trying to sort grocery spends, finances out and that forum (GC) has been moving like crazy, nice to see some new people plus regulars. I thought i would post a list of what i want to achieve, as what i have done does not amount to much.

    [STRIKE]shoppihg
    fold washing
    put on another load & hang[/STRIKE]
    finish sorting, and file paperwork (yippee nearly at the end)
    [STRIKE]finish kitchen[/STRIKE]
    bedroom
    get spare room cupboards out

    Dare i say happy messie flying

    Oh no! We have a surveyor coming out on Friday morning (changing mortgage provider) and the house is still a post xmas tip :(

    I have that awful 'don't know where to start'feeling. It's probably not as bad as it looks due to my prexmas efforts but :eek:

    I know I'll be nagged non stop by OH until it's done now too :mad:

    Oh god.
