That’s an epic OAT @greent, especially coordinating all 3 of you to be together to do it! 👏

Meanwhile, I have finally cleared down and tidied the dining table and removed two huge winter dressing gowns from the back of my bedroom door that stopped it opening properly. One is off to the CS and the other will go in the bottom of the office wardrobe!

Epic OAT indeed @greent! 

I've been scything down the nettles behind the house 😬 Been meaning to do this for a couple of years but it never got to the top of the list - until they interfered with the electric fence and the cows escaped into the garden 🙄😂 Nowhere near finished, but progress is good.

Mr C is also having a sock amnesty - also not finished and not my OAT (although I have retrieved a few of my socks 😂) but still counts as progress!

Mr KK could do with a sock amnesty … and a grundies amnesty … and a T-shirt one … basically his whole bedroom!! How did you get Mr CD to engage @Cheery_Daff? 🤔

Ha, not my idea on this occasion (and truth be told there are other tasks I would have put ahead on the list)... Still, a sort out is a sort out and I am absolutely not complaining!

I just bin MrJD's when they've been put out for the wash and if they need binning then they go!  It's not very often he says where's XXX which I've binned!  As they don't go out as a bulk lot I don't think he really notices!

Big OAT that needs doing - calling the hospital to get my surgery booked for December otherwise I'll be overdue. Slightly smaller one is to book myself a full body mole check at a local clinic. Several of my family do this annually, and it seems like a sensible idea.

How much do you pay for that or is it NHS? Three family members have had skin cancer.

It's a private clinic locally. Just under £300 I think. And something I'm willing to pay for as an investment in my health.

I do the same as @joedenise with some of MrBC's clothes and 'junk".  It's never anything precious or of sentimental value - more like supermarket receipts, car insurance paperwork from 20 years ago, socks with holes in etc etc.  he's got a revolting jacket that's covered in logos of long defunct brands that he will never, ever wear but because he paid for it as an emergency buy when it was pouring with rain at a sporting event in the last millennium he won't part with it.  Unfortunately it's too bulky to sneak out of the house.

Finally got the new plants in the ground - they've been sat in pots for a week and we're going away for a few days tomorrow. Need to water them again before we leave but they should be fine 😊
