    I have completed my online Food Hygiene course, and printed off the certificate (100% - yay! Go me!)

    DH has sorted out the freezer to see what we have got & what we need. We have chucked a few bits. I need to do the fridge next.

    We are off to Aldi now to get some shopping.

    Would you mind sharing where you did this and how much it cost? I would like to do one for my childminding training. :) Thank you

    I shifted a huge box of toys which was hogging the landing.. I am sick of falling over it so I moved it.. it was rather heavy!! I figured 2 minutes pain moving it or 20 seconds every time I walk past it.. it is so much easier getting to my room now!

    Washing brought down.. I don't have a full load :D

    I need to start on the girls packing for Wednesday.. which involves them pairing up thousands of socks until they have 5 pairs each :p .. then they need to find shoes for paddling.

    Where you off too?

    Think this was done online; just check that whatever qualification you do get is accepted by your Local Authority.

    (People keep telling me I ought to sell my jam but I don't because I'm fairly sure my kitchen wouldn't pass - not that I'm a mucky mare, but I have cats:cool:)

    I have hardly been in the living room; certainly not flown in there but stuff has been shifted as per list;)

    DS has been chivvied to wash his bike properly, as it is listed on ebay. It already has 5 watchers; loads of views and it is collection/cash.
    I have had to measure it and I am VERY proud of myself because I have linked the listing to a photobucket album and now have 11 extra pictures on there, showing it in great detail! First time ever. Have had to 'lock' all my other albums though!

    I have also done a major weed/moss clearance on the side of the house, moved some pots about and it looks a whole lot better.
