We ate our lasagne for lunch, and had some carrot'n'orange cake for pud, and there was another half-hour before he had to get back to his desk and re-commence work.
Normally, he wants to play a PlayStation2 game to fill the time; I mentioned I was going to fall behind with the housework with having Lucy to see to as well, and he helped me dust and polish the hall and lounge, instead; including moving all his heavy IT books from the top of the hall bookcase and giving it a thorough clean - something I can't manage on my own, as some of those books are huge!

I am making progress. :j I can't find my MOT so i can Tax the car but i've just phoned the garage and they said they can print me off one for £10. I'm going to search high and low before i get one printed off.
I've sorted a whole drawer full of paperwork and half filled a black bag with shredding and a recycling bag with paper. I now have a small pile to file. I've got to stop now though because i have to pack my sales and go to the post office and market before i pick up Ds2. Just going to tidy up the mess i've made a bit first.
If you tax it online they check the details electronically so you shouldn't need it.0 -

I would but i forgot to change my address when i moved and i don't have enough time to change it before the tax is due.So i have to do it at the post office.
I've been to the market and got 3 massive bags of fruit and veg for £10 and picked up Ds2. I suppose i'd better get off my backside and do some more.

DS1 deposited at work

Just having a short break whilst cooking DS3's dinner (bitty night for meals and he is starving) and then I want to cut the front grass as it is green bin day tomorrow.
