    Hope you feel better soon Tracy, sinuses are the worst. I'm not too worried about the payment cause if it is wrong I'll just pay them back so much a week, I've actually signed off income support via my lone parent advisor so it should have all been internal, I am wondering if these two payments I've had are part of the £250 grant though edit: they can't be they come to £280.56 :confused: think I'd best phone them instead of sitting here trying to work it out.

    [strike]make beds
    [/strike]dry 1 x load washing (outside hopefully)
    [strike]rubbish in bin outside
    [/strike]hoover through
    [strike]write shopping list
    [/strike]weekly food shop
    ^^unpack & put away (not my fave job)
    do pigsback
    quick S&S of bathroom (untidy already)
    bleach down cloakroom loo
    evening routine.

    I'm on my way to work now but wanted to ask you lot who have tumble dryers whether or not you can use them on carpet. I aks this because the only space i have for a dryer is in my bedroom near the window. I'll catch your replies later..see you :beer:

    Yes.. you can stand them on carpet.. mine in the middle room is on carpet. It does tend to get a bit fluffy and sometimes a little bit damp around the bottom though.

    Bed then.. night night!! lol

    Clean loo
    Clean loo floor
    Clean bathroom floor
    Clean desk
    Wipe keyboard, phone and mouse
    Wash bathroom swag
    Empty upstairs bins
    Wipe bathroom skirting

    stationery fling in study - I've got too many pens etc that I never use - will bundle up to take to work - need to do at least a 27 fling boogie.

    Who's up for a HHC at 10?
    I'd rather be watching CSI!
