    Have to agree with you there Piggers although the bathroom mould needed something else so I got some stuff from Lakeland which is absolutely awesome! I:heart::heart::heart::heart::heartpuls:heartpuls:heartpuls:heartpuls:heartpuls it

    I have white grout and white silicone!

    DW filled. With some on the side for the next load. I could wash it but now I am back to a 1 person household I might as well add it to the DW. I can't fill the DW in a day, anyway...

    I got astonish mould and mildew remover for the bathroom.. it was amazing... I did end up scrubbing it with a toothbrush but its all gone.. need to get OH to sand the ceiling so I can get it all painted.


    the kitchen is much emptier.. I threw out so much!! I've filled a wheelie bin today and a recycle bin and sold £245 of stuff!!! crazy isn't it.. people do actually buy anything this time of year!

    Monday..

    Clear some more kitchen
    contact decorator for a quote for the front room.. I MUST get that dealt with asap.. its dreadful in there and distresses me whenever I go in.. I want a decorator to paint ceilings and strip paper and repaper the chimney breast and the tiny loo.. shouldn't be too awful.. I don't mind doing the emulsioning.. though if its not much more I might have them to that as well!!
    List 20 items to sell
    Tuesday .. forms and finances sorting, hospital appointment chasing other appointment chasing..
    Wednesday.. dyeing
    Thursday I'm out all day
    Friday DS2 and I are making a start on clearing the boys room while DS3 is out..
    Possible hospital appointment following Monday.. need to sort Pixie care!

    Bossymoo sympathy for doc appt.

    Not a bad weekend.
    Swept up lots of leaves.
    Cleared out dead tomato plants etc from conservatory, carefully relocated 4 small newts to a different corner so they wouldn't be trodden on.
    Reports jogging on.
    Went to remembrance service in village.
    Filled bird feeders.
    Mr N did a load of ironing and vacuuming.
    Went to cousin's 50th party.
    Printed off Xmas card list.
    Various other things I've lost track of now.
    Remember...a layer of dust protects the wood beneath it.

    Morning all
    Huge well done for what everyone has achieved
    CY well done on the cake
    Pigpen love the chairs
    Dh decided to let go of some videos over the weekend so we've bagged up over 800 that were being stored on the drive they are going on freecycle this week and any left will go to the tip next weekend! 8 holdalls full of martial art kit, suits belts pads etc are hopefully going to a friend who still runs a club, if not CS can have them all. Two black bags of rubbish gone already from under there. I'm asking today if the school want a big table football game. I want the space mo than I need the clutter that is filling it.
    Working this afternoon and need to make a must do list as I keep thinking of things I need to have done by Christmas.

    Have a good day everyone
    Hope the poorlies are starting to feel better.
