    I'll have one with you opti-mum, thanks. Will mop the kitchen floor first and then S&S the bathroom whilst the floor dries.

    cuppa being guzzled as I type.

    Dot clearing up a bag of prawn crackers

    OH and Squeak still not back from Tesco.

    My kitchen is filthy .. it is going to take days to clean it all :(

    So, once these have finished attacking the ceiling ..

    Start sweeping at the top so everything is swept onto the floor
    Wipe from top to bottom
    sweep then mop

    It can be painted at the weekend.

    Going to do some flinging upstairs once I have finished this cuppa.. bins are all bursting again.

  • thanks for the company TMD, how did you get on?

    Really well - kitchen is much improved. Even put the recycling into the van and emptied OH's suitcase from his weekend away. Just going to strip DS's bed ready for the WM. The sky is white with clouds, but it is very warm and blindingly bright,so I think the sun just needs to burn through - think I'll chance another wash. I really am sad when it comes to washing. It's my only OCD trait, but it keeps me happy :o

    DW on.. another 2 loads and it might be clear in there!
    Dot fed.. nothing nutritious as I have no bread and no way to do anything remotely worth eating in there. yoghurts, cheese chunks and a packet of quavers it is then! ... now I need to vacuum those and the prawn crackers.
    Kitchen bin emptied.

    God knows where OH has got to!

    Off to do the bathroom and hoover upstairs. Trip into town delayed as DD is watching Matilda. Contemplating buying some paint for her room to do it later today (maybe)
