  • Cooker hob has been cleaned, DS3 away to playgroup, more washing done and td back again.

    helen jelly it's right round his waist, not as red this morning but 4-5 blisters round the area. He gets it all the time so does DS1, i think it's an allergic rection to something.

    Right back to the kitchen i go...

    Of course you can bring it over - and I'll sit and make encouraging noises while I watch you clean it.:rotfl:

    [/STRIKE]A 5 minute job which has been on your list too long - hmm, have been putting off having a look at the bbq. It has a cover on, strapped with bungees, but I can see something is hanging off. I'll go check now... ETA: it was the single ring hob. DH must have taken it off last year to fit the cover over, and slotted it underneath for safekeeping, but it's come loose, so I've put it back. We've not used it at all this year.

    I'll have a look in the tea towel cupboard later. Not sure what my hotspot of choice is though. Might be the tea towel cupboard :rotfl::T

    Kitchen is done and looking good, I'm going to make a cuppa fling the mop around, get the caravan stuff away and get on with the ironing.....

    Had a call from school asking if I can work this week if DD is better, so will try and get some bits done in the other rooms too. DD did dust the LR earlier.

    Vanilla - does he wear PJ's - could some washing powder be trapped in the elasticated waist??? Other than that I've no idea - sorry:[[

    Lamewolf - I really did lol, hehe

    Kitchen is looking better, LR is still the room of doom, or is our bedroom the room of doom - either of them are as bad as bad can be!
