Managed to get quite a bit done but then a friend rang for a natter which was nice and we've made plans for family get together over school Easter hols which will be lovelySo thought I'd have some lunch and a cuppa then try for another tidying/cleaning session...
So far I have:
DW loaded run and emptied
WM loaded run and emptied - washing hanging in laundry room
S&S kitchen and bathrooms and floors swept
