Got most of the washing in now and it's folded and put away. Just three things not quite dry.

Cut the back grass, I hacked back some bushes yesterday but it got too hot for me. Finished it today and it looks tidier. It'll never be great but at least it's tidy.

dusty.. if it is tea I'll drink it!!

Right I got all carried away and took the filter out of my tumble dryer and scrubbed it so it twinkles.. hopefully it will be way more efficient now!!!

I'm ging toy collecting now.. taking my laundry basket, filling it with stray toys and then making the children put them away.. they aren't mine after all!!!

I also need to empty both vacuum cleaners so I can vacuum... sigh.. more tea!!!!

Rach snap - I got distracted too. Decided to hoover the room I never clean - kept that one a secret long enough - more details later and decided to see if any of my medical books had any details about cholerstrol in them - had my test results back.

Right back to the task in hand. Need to move enough toys to hoover a bit in the living room - grand prix still in progress and they are having so much fun I can't break up there track. Then stair and then bathroom - back in 30 x
