    Calm down :p The lists are just ideas, do you honestly think I'll achieve all of it this week and I write it! Anything you do is great, anything you don't forget it (it'll be back on in the next few weeks for sure).

    HHC at 9:30 anyone?

    I have just had breakfast, so I will crack on and join you pigpen, Dustykitten and Little Miss Happy now!

    I have my ensuite venetian blind to do which if I am quick will take 45 minutes :mad::mad::mad::mad:, then if I feel motivated I will do the dining room one - that will be two frogs squished!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    and then I feel justified in getting on with the Tuesday fly list
    The cold never bothered me anyway
