    Soz, Dizzy. Didn't mean to sound whingey about sunny weather.

    Another three hours gibble sorting and odd job doing. The dining room is beginning to fill up.

    OH tied a climbing rose back in and I hoicked out all of the weeds and bulbs out from under the pear tree and hacked all of the reachable pearlets off. I need it to put down better roots because it fell over when we removed the stake last year. I think we've left it too late but it's worth a try. And it needs another 70 litres of water on it. Just sayin'.
    Better is good enough.

    Tat has been on fleabay for over 24 hours and plenty have looked but none have bid or even watched :( But I have washed and sorted all the charity shop bag and it feels good to have all the tat that needs to get gone moved into one of the cupboards. If it doesn't sell on fleabay then I will try gumtree and fb selling and reduce prices until it all goes.

    Went round the outlaws for afternoon tea and cake in the garden. Got back and was inspired to bring out the window cleaning stuff. I need to buy a longer telescopic pole to get to four of the upstairs windows (thinking this one http://www.argos.co.uk/product/8551207) but I am now sat in the living room with my lovely sparkling downstairs windows :)

    Flying is great - feeling very positive :T:rotfl::):)
