    In my HHC I cleared the BR floor, cleaned the bedside tables and windowsill (uuggh), dusted and dewebbed throughout.

    Made dinner - Leftover game pie for DH, Salmon for me, with New Potatoes and salad.

    How off to scoff.

    Dora and BB - hope you were successful.

  • I think we might be related :D

    As suggested on today's list, I sorted through a box of handbags from my wardrobe. I found various things still in some of them - tampon, tissue, tape measure, hair band... and a condom with a use by date of Dec 2007 :eek:
    hi sister from another mister!:rotfl:

    good job you checked the use by date on that condom otherwise there would be no wine in your future for about 9 months minimum :eek:

    phew, that took longer than thought and I am absolutely cream crackered. I am now sitting down to toad in the hole, its really nice, if I do say so myself, only made it once before!!

    In my HHC I managed to:
    hoover the stairs landing and bedroom
    pick up the rest of the stuff laying about
    shake out the bed

    Doesnt sound like a lot but I did a very thorough hoover.

    kitchen now unfortunately looks like a bomb has hit it, as does the spare room, not to worried though as im sure they will appear on the list this week.
