    Hi all

    Been out all day but kitchen floor washed, along with all the cupboard doors. Worktops and tiles have had a proper clean, microwave and toaster have both had had a bit of a wipe over, all necessary surfaces dusted and polished and nearly all the clutter rehomed. Thats it, tired now. Our bedroom is a disaster zone, not looking forward to tackling that.

    I gave DS2 £10 because he was going out with a friend today and he managed to spend it all, but I am not entirely sure what he got with it! School holidays - dont you just love it.

    Ohhhh we're on this weeks email!!!!

    Should have put Vallli in charge months ago :rotfl:

    Thifty well done on your doors

    Large cupboard collected by ebayer. Felt a bit sad to see it go, he was not very gentle with it. It was the boys toy cupboard for years so sentimental, feeling very tearful today and AF is not due.

    Bins out for recycling plus neighbours who is away. DS2 deposited at work, to be collected. Need to get DS3 to bed in a minute. Have oodles of paperwork to do but really not in the mood.

    Hope you all have a fabby holiday!

    Thanks for the congrats but it's a collective effort - so, as far as I am concerned, a team win.

    (Having said that I had a thread chosen ages ago and was most chuffed! - haven't bothered to claim a badge though).

    Wednesday list is up!

    Bossy have a great holiday

    Trying to decide which flying to tackle first tomorrow, leaving the duster in the hallway helped to focus the mind first thing this morning.

    Um - well I set myself the goal of de-cluttering during the school holidays and I seem to have had some success.....

    DS is moving out on Monday!

    I've known this was coming for a while, but he and g/f went to see a house to rent yesterday. We talked to him last night about going to see a few and choosing the best - and he has ignored us and gone ahead with the one he saw yesterday!

    Anyone know of a decent cook book for beginners?

    And bossy and the littlies - have a fab holiday!
