    Many thanks for the list - am going to try and do as much as I can each day whilst not letting the kids sit in front of the DVD all day every day!

  • Thanks for the new thread Juliejim.

    Last week wasn't as good as I'd planned. I managed to do all till Weds but hoping to make the full week this week. We're moving over the weekend so MUST get everything done or may risk losing part of our deposit on cleaning, which wouldn't be a good use of our hard earned pennies!
