DS has come home from Uni for the weekend
So that's the 1st load of washing draped on radiators; 2nd load now washing; and 3rd and 4th loads waiting patiently for their turn
I've also watered all the bedding plants that the gardening fairy planted this week, as a few of them were looking quite sad. We seem to get a lot of low grey cloud, but no rain??? Sun is shining today woop woop :T
Right, next I'm going to feed Harry Spadge and his mates as they are giving me black looks through the window

Hob is clean. Second load of washing is in, first load is in the TD. Eggs and veg bought. Lots more tidying to do before I can clean properly but I don't really feel like it...0

Inspired by pollybear I scrubbed the shower out properly rather than just spray and wipe. Ouch :cool:'If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need' Marcus Tullius Cicero0

Birds fed.
3rd load in WM - after liberally dosing cricket whites with 'stuff' to try and remove hot chilli sauce and blackcurrant stains!!! Apparently it was the cricket club's initiation week for the freshers who've joined this semester ...DS is trying to convince me they are not a load of eejits....so far I remain unconvinced. (Am reliably informed that the cricket club is tame compared to the rugby team though...the mind boggles!)
Have just started to read The Great Gatsby - am thinking that as a book it probably makes a good film, but I haven't seen that either so I'm guessing.
