Tomorrow we're entering the cupboard of doom in DD's bedroom in the hopes of rejigging it so her clothes will hang in it properly as she's just shoved stuff in there again so stuff is coming out looking like it's never seen an iron :mad:

    Ooh ATB, have a lovely day.

    I'm not sure what we'll be doing today. The initial plan was to go out for the day sightseeing but not sure if its warm enough for DH. If not, I may go clothes shopping at the outlet.

    Going to do some bits from the list before DH gets up.

    Have a great day everyone.

    Cripes Nicki - we may have to send out rescue dogs if you've entered your daughter's wardrobe :eek:

    ATB - enjoy your day, you lucky girl. Well jel.... we're off for a picnic today with friends, then collecting skids from the station for a manic end to the half-term break. Break?...break? :rotfl:

    I ate a huge frog yesterday and finalised my contents claim following the flood. _pale_ I hope the insurers can agree it.

    Morning all
    Dizzy hope the insurance settlement gets agreed.
    Hugs good wishes and coping vibes to all who need them
    Had ds2s friends sleep round last night, so I've come down to snoring boys on the settees, a sink full of dirty pots and grated chees all over the work surfaces - they seem to have made some type of pasta meal after we went to bed. Ds2 has school at 10 so I've started stirring them. Ds1 texted he didn't come home last night after London - I didn get a text to say he was almost back but staying at a friends and would go direct to work this am. Texted to say can pack up be delivered to work via his bro enroute to school. So will get that all sorted. Possibly evict his mates with him and get on with gardening and cleaning.

    Have a good morning all.

    Morning all. Never got back upstairs ( am on the second floor) yesterday until bedtime.
    Thoroughly cleaned my sisters kitchen, including tops of cupboard, cleaned the glass doors of the Victorian dresser cupboard which I assume is original, inside and out, and cleaned open shelves and their contents (thank goodness fo dishwasher) also cleaned downstairs loo and mopped kitchen, then porch and loo floors. While her DH is helpful he doesn't appear to have fully grasped the need for cleaning.
    Bathroom and ironing today.
