    Make sure that it is dh's clothes that you wash when you first use the washing machine after using dye in it...

    Well done on results.

  • He he. Never had any problem with Dylon machine dye.

    The curtains were hand sewn and will need reconstruction once they are dyed.

    Today it is operation "reclaim the house" since we have invited some neighbours for drinkies.

    Hoping the eternal rain stays off so I can get my washing dry.

  • Oooh! We have worked like dogs. Nesting, I think you would call it.

    Just washed up the stuff I took food in/on to camp in July. Think I might be rushing it?!

  • OMG we have worked like DOGS today. Two neighbours out of 4 turned up for a drink which was jolly. We got a bit of the local gossip.

    House looks great. except our bedroom which is a pig sty.
  • Morning! Conked out when the neighbours had gone last night. Today I am collecting the (hopefully fixed) curtains and being outwitted by more flatpack. Tape comes off the purple wall today.
