Morning all

Dull again but I've hung a load of washing out.

I still like doing the kitchen on Mondays so I've given that a good going over but I've also given the living room a good damp wipe and vacuumed right through downstairs. Didn't do the stairs because DD was still in bed. I'll try and remember them tomorrow. Also damp wiped the computer desk and shook the crumbs out of the keyboard.

Can I join?

We are having a loft conversion, and I have scaffolding in the hallway, a bathroom suite in the living room and tiles and stair treads in the porch, but apart from that the house is spotless. :eek:

I need help! Will go and run a hoover around now and check back later.
