    [STRIKE]I'm not up yet, time to put kettle on and start rousing step kids so I can take them to SIL while I do a couple of hours paid flying.
    [/STRIKE] DSS got up, for dressed and got back into bed because we're not leaving for 15 mins :mad:

    Other jobs:

    [STRIKE]Find all cheques which are littered about[/STRIKE] and bank them
    Small shop for dinner and Sunday supper
    Pack bag for the weekend
    Start sorting through yarn stash and see if any of it is worth listing on fleaBay. If not, I need to take it to CS. Arduous task alert, I have so much pretty yarn I won't want to part with any of it but we're struggling for space and as I've been knitting the same sock for over a year it's time to declutter a sizeable chunk
    Fill up the car so it stops beeping at me every time I switch on the engine
    [STRIKE]S&S kitchen, LR and bathroom
    Load WM ready for dirty work cloths and clothes[/STRIKE]
    Do walk of shame to bottle bank

    I hang mine with the dangler to the back of the roll. I find that small people are much less inclined to use 2/3 of a roll at a time this way. Haven't managed to train OH out of this one yet though.

    Must add loo roll to shopping list…!

    Morning all. I've not posted for a few days, have been very busy so only the dailies being done here. Also have a busy weekend planned but I MUST get out in the garden. It is becoming a jungle.

    Yes Mrs MP - clockwise away from the wall.
    Piggers - good luck

    Hope everyone has a great day.

    Froddy - fancy going to Manchester the week I'm on holiday - I would have come and joined you for the day otherwise.

    Back from taking DS to football so I need to make a start so I thought I'd do a quick HHC in my BR if anyone would like to join me!

    I am failing ladies!! I don't know how you all do it! I think my training for a half marathon in September is not helping. Came back from my run after work last night completely exhausted...was just about able to prepare dinner without falling asleep! And I'm heading out tonight for a a work leaving do, so nothing will be down tonight either :( Will have to try and get a wee hungover run round with the vacuum cleaner tomorrow!

    Piggers good luck today so looking forward to meeting the new arrival xx

    Bonny you made me laugh this morning with you having to use google to work me out piggers has to do that sometimes too! Although I'm from another country so you shouldn't automatically be able to speak my language without training! :rofl:

    Loo rolls annoy me too but when I go to my SiLs I turn her roll the wrong way before I leave as it really irritates her :)

    OH is away to Newcastle so I have a bit of peace to get the housework done and encourage/shout at the weans to help!

    Going to have a cuppa if anyone wants one? Then I will get dressed and get started!
