    Afternoon. Two washloads done, both beds stripped and remade and one load of bedding done and nearly dry and clothes washed first thing and all dry. Indoors because it's cold, wet and windy again instead of lovely and sunny like yesterday. Otherwise just normal dailies done. Hope everyone's OK x

    Afternoon all,

    I spent the morning in the big town, taking DD’s car for a service and MOT. That’s a good job ticked off. I might have wasted some time by walking to the fabric shop, but I promise that I was very restrained.

    The kitchen and utility have had a cursory clean and sweep, sinks shined. Admin tadpole has been munched, the frog is nearly sorted as well. Wm x 1, all hanging indoors due to incessant cold rain.

    Last night I crocheted my first ever granny square using some of my stashed wool - it actually might have been my mum’s, so it’s been hanging around for a while. I am inordinately proud of my achievement!

    hoovered throughout this morning and cleaned and tidied the landing window sill as well as the hall stand.

    S&S the bathroom and shredded another notebook.

    Dropped off a return at the PO for my dad and posted a little gift to a grandson. The postage cost more than the gift!
