So far I've done the school stuff, washed up, moved furniture around in the LR, even hoovered the walls, checkEbay sales - car selling :j:D:D

Question - not flying related - DD is getting an IPod for Xmas - 2nd hand as we can't afford a new one but I;ve no idea what I'm buying, is a 2nd Generation 8GB ok - she won't use it too much and won't overload it with 1000's of songs [unless she's buying them lol] there is 1 on Fleabay starting for £40ish with new earbuds and the connection lead [great condition] - is that a good buy - thank you

In my HHC I

S&S'd 2 bathrooms and downstairs WC
Got spots of emulsion off the floor tiles in downstairs WC :mad:
Made our bed
Stripped 2 boys' beds
Move DH's craft table from living room to utility
Hoovered hall, breakfast room and living room (including under sofa and large chair)

A short break to finish the coffee, get my breath back and make some more course materials, then I'm planning another HHC from 11.00.

ionafan - how did you get on :]] I managed to clear the coffee table [not as simple as it sounds] lots of trips to the bin, kitchen and other rooms to clear away stuff [all other rooms now look even worse] dusted and started to check off my Avon delivery

I'm feeling quite pleased with this mornings progress so far

Helen :]]

How did you get on helen jelly?

The laminator decided to be awkward so I ended up wasting time and having to reprint a number of pictures on card. Memo to self - don't try to laminate A5 in future - the corners curl up!

In my HHC I finished hoovering, dusted the living room and straightened the cushions, and S&S'd kitchen. Must now put everything back in the downstairs cloakroom, then that's everything done for today, flying-wise, apart from quickly tidying my desk.

Will put casserole in the slow cooker for tea, have an early lunch and then be off to the post office and town. It's still raining

Wow - what a great thread! Just thought I'd pop on to say hi. I really need something to stop my inefficiency and this may be it. Can't promise to post much this week, but will try the Level 1 challenge later - am sitting in the office killing time at the mo!
