    Dishwashers.... if you'd asked me 3 months back I would have said Zannussi but since then my 3 year old zanussi washing machine and dishwasher had a power surge (as did every other appliance in the house). Computer restarted without a glitch, as did everything else except the Zannussi's. Hubby being a techno nerd dismantled them, worked out waht was wrong, phoned round for a couple of quotes for spares only to discover that the electronic gubbins need to be reprogrammed by Zannussi (and only Zannussi), 2 circuit boards for each appliance at £100-£120 each plus labour. So I bought me a matching pair of Bosch. Worked out cheaper. Very quiet, easy to load, energy efficient. No complaints about them at all.

    PHEW.. TD now rehomed in the back room.. it is REALLY noisy!!! I may have to ram it in the kitchen!!! :eek: BUT the airer sits perfectly in the top of it so I can now use that too. I have sorted 2 carriers of shoes to go to charity shop and 3 pairs to ebay.. I have completely trashed the back room and the middle room!! I have mucked out the bunnies, fed them and cuddled them and loaded the TD's and WM's.

    Why can I not tidy things tidier why do I always end up making even more mess than there was in the first place????

    The middle room now has 1 book shelf, 1 shelf unit with the toy boxes on, a bedside cabinet (which will be chucked out once I've rehomed its contents!!) the pouffe from the front room, the chest with my fabric and sewing bits in, a basket of socks and about 10 boxes of toys!!!!!!!!!! I don't think there will be much to go in the loft once I have sorted through what remains.. :D bonus.. I think hubby will be very surprised how little there will be.

    As we are going for a meal tomorrow afternoon I intend defleaing the children tonight and bathing them in the morning then we will get on with the sorting through the middle room and getting stuff boxed up. Second thoughts I will box it, tape them shut and stack them in my bedroom.. then the children won't be able to get in them!!

    I just got my quidco debenhams voucher.. woohoo!!!! That'll go in my christmas voucher box!

    Who's in for another HHC ?? 3-3:30pm??? I always miss this one as I'm on the school run.. but not today

    It was only 30mins this time, but then DS1 crashed the PC so had to fix that.

    I did teh dishes, S&S the kitchen, sorted Mount Iro-more into stuff to be ironed and stuff to be folded, folded some of it, put some of it away too.

    Now I really need to go to asda, right when the kids get wild, oh joy.

    Pigpen, go for it. If not you will onlyput it off and decide to do it in 10years time anyway.

    Oh I am so pleased!!! I now have £50.69 earnings on Quidco! I am kindly donating it to hubbies hut fund, arent I a great wife?? :D
