I took down the nasty plastic blinds. They were so horrible and I couldnt open the windows properly. I also gave the woodwork around the windows a good clean.

I think we need to head down to the dump to get rid of the nasty plastics and then check out the voile in IKEA and Dunhelm Mill. I'm also finishing off my spending diary updates.

Have been researching chemical-free ways of cleaning and sent hubby to shops for supplies of lemon, baking soda and white vinegar
Now must get on, lol!
Going to grab kids bedding and put in WM - they're out for a meal with their mates to finish Easter hols off, (aww nice ) so will be a nice surprise when they get back I did get one lot out on washing line and this lovely bout of wind is blowing it dry nicely
Right bedding, de-clutter, polish and hoover while I went for lemons, vinegar and gloves to do cleaning jobs
