    Clean out Humbug and John and Sarah

    The surname of those last 2 isn't Connor by any chance?

    Good Morning, all; as I'm not at work for 8 days from this Wed, there's been a bit of advance dysoning and kitchen stuff being done.
    I built 2 vegetable lasagnes from scratch (one for Tuesday evening) and put quite a lot of stuff away after I did all the washing up. All the laundry from the weekend is already put away, including the teatowels.

    Get Well Soon vibes to those with poorlies in the house, spare spoons here for those with longer term conditions and sticks for those ruddy black dogs are in a basket by the back door.

    It means Swish And Swipe - as in a quick once-round with a cloth and a spot of cleaner of your choice of the sink, or the wash-basin, or the loo. Not a full scrub, but enough to keep it sweet-smelling and muck-free.;)

    Morning - just. Woke up at 10.30 am so not a great start and still not sure I'm properly awake. Two lots of washing have optimistically been put out on the washing line, and the dishwasher rinsed through. Now thinking it could be a good idea to actually wash and dress myself.

    Having looked last night, I couldn't even remember which room it was today. Not going to follow the lists this week, just the room - so anything I can do in the kitchen today will be deemed "progress"!

    Thank you both :)

    I've just read Toots welcome page and there is mention of a 'master list' for each room of the house, could someone post a link for me? Thanks.
