When you did the second chance offer she will have got an email she has to open the email.. and read it...
There is a big yellow rectangle which will open the relevant page and it is completed like a buy it now sale.. really simple.. IF she actually reads the email!! :rolleyes:

Well it took me all day to gain the energy to do the kitchen, but now I have...
Terrible Tuesday - Kitchen and [STRIKE]Dining Room[/STRIKE] -Don't have one!
Level One
[strike]Clean floors[/strike]Tick
Level Two
[strike]Clear and wipe kitchen surfaces[/strike]Tick
[strike]Sort fridge bringing what needs using soon to the front, clean out any spills or grots in there![/strike]Tick
Level Three
Dust any extra furniture in dining area, checking for cobwebs on way round
Wipe and replace all those small appliances.. kettle, toaster etc
Clean oven if you didn't do it last week I was going to clean the oven...honest...but I realise I have no oven cleaner!! It will have to wait until next week (I did wipe the door inside & out thou)
[strike]Clean cupboard door fronts and fronts of appliances[/strike] .. don't forget those kick boards.. Door fronts done, kick boards not!
Check those washing machine filters and drawers for ickiness!! Tumble dryer and dishwasher filters need to be done too!!
Extra Mission
Choose one or more of:- [strike]Wipe window sills and clean windows in these rooms[/strike]Tick
- [strike]Wipe down any tiles and shine those taps.. a toothbrush is great for cleaning away the gunk![/strike]Tick
- [strike]Write an inventory of your cupboards contents and what needs using first[/strike]Not much in there :sad: but all in date
- Empty the cutlery drawer.. clean it out, wash the cutlery tray, chuck those baby spoons you don't use any more.. how many medicine spoons do you actually need? get rid of everything you don't use and make the drawer look nice again!
Get in that junk/spare stuff/'quick.. hide it in there' cupboard. Give it all GOOD scrub out before placing the things you need to keep.. I bet 90% of that can go in the bin!!. If no junk cupboard do a foody one! Feel free to get carried away and do more cupboards!!!
