    hoover hall, stairs and landings

    Extras
    1. If you are planning jollidays this year.. make sure those passports are up to date!!!
    Good progress. Please nag me about the passports I have done the forms but don't have the funds to pay for them at the moment. I've lost mine and DD2's has expired.

    From the Frog list in my head I have cleaned all football boots and am going to put the outgrown ones on ebay to start the passport fund. This is also something I need nagging about as I procrastinate a la Valli.

    I will hoover the stairs after I have collected DS3, DD2 and DS2 from school in that order. Must also go to Tesco as there is no food for dinner or sandwiches tomorrow.
