    How did you get on frodders? I've finished the ironing but while doing it my mind took to wandering and now I feel the need to do a bit of furniture arranging, I think the piano and side board are going to swap places so I'm going to do a HHC or 2 of furniture Tetris.

    It took a while of gazing round and him saying I know something is different. He got it in the end LOL.
    Ds2 walked in from work, glanced at the piano said oh you've had a move round it looks much better. So he earned brownie points

    I've cleared the alcove so all winter coats are now upstairs ready to put away and there isn't much in the lounge that shouldn't be there. I still need to go and make a start on the kitchen, but when Dh comes home from work we are going to drop of the three dysoned we are giving away so more space being created.

    Random bits again.
    - did new gym program
    -bought and wrapped a couple of presents for Mr N who is 65 tomorrow. His 'real' present is the day out on Friday.
    - emptied DW and put away kitchen stuff
    - put away clean clothes from basket
    -filled a bird feeder.
    - done a bit more tax return
    -rang optician to see if I need a checkup before choosing new specs, having finally given up hope of finding who swapped mine (I have some which look very similar but aren't mine and I've asked everyone I can think of if they have picked up the wrong ones!)
    Remember...a layer of dust protects the wood beneath it.
