    Hi,

    @Fairyclicks - Wow, you've done brilliantly this month! :T

    Well, I didn't get a great amount done yesterday. I've had an awful cold for the last few days and not long after I got out of the shower, I had a horrible coughing fit and felt totally wiped out afterwards so I just got back into bed and slept for about 12 hours. :eek: But that's fair enough, I obviously really needed the rest. So, a few rollies for today then.

    Today I will:

    [STRIKE]Fill one carrier bag with shredded paper.[/STRIKE] Done. :D
    [STRIKE]Put out shredded paper for recycling. [/STRIKE] Done. :D
    Put out one bag of regular paper for recycling (once the bin men have been).
    [STRIKE]Buy rubber gloves.[/STRIKE] Done. :D
    [STRIKE]Buy Tipp-Ex.[/STRIKE] Done. :D
    Sort rest of catalogues (using Tipp-Ex to change the website address on them).

    I think that'll do it for today, especially as sorting the catalogues will take quite a while.
