  • Likklegibbon Can I join you? My challenge has to be the fish tank in the kitchen-can hardly see the poor little beggars:eek:

    I cleaned and dusted every surface in the living room last night, came down this am to find DH back from NS with the woodburner roaring and it's doors open wide, black dust now on every surface again:mad: I hate this cleaning lark, you just get finished and have to start all over again

  • I'm up for the HHC at 10.30.
    I've cleared a couple of hotspots and started on the kitchen. Just having a coffee and catch up on here.
    2 loads of washing done, one on the line.
    Kids are being reasonably quiet this morning so not too stressy.
    Nothing to declare ;)
