    Thanks for the thread Jue
    Thank you juliejim for another weekly list. Didn't do too well this week as we are in the midst of looking round secondary schools for DD so we are getting in from work then going straight out again to see another school. Looked round 2 last week

    That's what I'm doing this week too (even though DS3 is away on a school residential all week - good planning not:mad:). Did one last week, where I am a Governor, closest to home and where the other 2 week; this week the main 'competitor' in our area, just for research purposes;) and the school DS2 is at in the next town where DS3 can go on the sibling rule. Also have Governor meeting (or two).

    Main aim this week is paperwork and the RofD as the rest of the house is quite clean and tidy so HH flying each day and then concentrated efforts the rest of the time (when I'm not meeting friends for coffee :o)

    New blind in bathroom looks very smart so got a much larger one for the bar french door in the dining room. A very different look from before but gives some privacy at night as it is right by my desk. Homebase 15% off so a bit of a saving too.

    Ok, place is not too bad on the surface, so when the rooms come round, i think i will concentrate on the mess that lies within. Hope everyone is keeping well.

    PS Can anyone recommend a really good oven cleaner, i need to clean the roof of my oven, it minging, its a bit tricky as its behind an electric element, not sure if it removes, seems almost impossible.
