    Dusty - I didn't know you knew there were two 5 o' clocks in the day:p - hope your leg's ok.

    I thought it was just a rumour but now I know :eek: Wish the birds didn't know.

    I've been since God forsaken o'clock too.. OH woke me up and I just couldn't get back to sleep... esp. once my cats started defenses against the random tom that comes to play.

    I am really hungry this morning.. I could eat a whole elephant!!

    Due to recent seismic activity I assure you there will be no more jogging today.. 50 uards almost killed me and in the interests of planetary preservation (and self preservation) I shall refrain!

    kettle is on.. Dot still snoring.. bet I don't get a cuppa in peace!

    Good morning :D

    Lost internet last night so didn't post. My kitchen looks good :A DD2 emptied the DW (on 1st time of asking!!), everything washed up, surfaces wiped - even under microwave!!! LR/DR/hallway hoovered.

    The front door was playing up again :( I ended up removing a screw from the plate and it seems to be ok now :) The screw was bent! Not too sure how safe it is, but at least we fitted the chain a few weeks ago :)

    DH did a lot of the bedroom before we went away at the weekend - so not too bad in there :)

    Off to toddler group now. catch you laters

    Thanks for the list Dusty

    If it's gone it's either done or n/a - I really need to get everything done this week as I am away next week and I know DH will try but only the tidying and basic cleaning will get done :p At least if it is spotless before I go it won't look like a bomb has hit it when I get back!
