    Clear the clutter from all these rooms!! It would really help if my LO didn't keep emptying the bin all over the floor :rotfl:
    Level Two
    Vacuum the floors Need to go out so will do that when I get back
    Clean bath, toilets, shower and sinks Done
    Wipe down the tiles and defragment the pc while doing this. Actually remembered to defrag today! I need to delete some stuff I think - only 25% left of a 4Gb memory!
    Level Three
    declutter and dust the pc desk Done
    Wipe away cup rings and sticky things Done
    wipe the keyboard, mouse, cables and sockets and suchlike. Done
    Clean the windows. Did yesterday
    Extras
    • HHI.. There's only one shirt to do so I won't bother today
    • polish mirrors! Done
    Also done:-

    WM x 2
    TD x 2
    Bread rising

    Need to do:-

    Go to PO to collect Child Benefit
    Buy multi-journey bus ticket for DH
    Buy some salad for dinner tonight
    Buy soya milk (if the supermarket has it in - otherwise no coffee!)
    Collect DS from school

    DD1 is going for tea with a friend tonight so I don't have to rush (she goes out at 6pm as she is in St John's Ambulance so Tuesday is a bit of a rush usually). She has something on every night of the week plus Saturday mornings so she has a much better social life than her boring old parents :rotfl:. DS only has cubs (he won't try anything else).

    Right, off to change my trousers then off to do my errands.

    SSL - well done - did you not only look at it for the first time yesterday!?!

    Mudbath - positive vibes for your wrist/thumb, don't risk long term damage for the sake of a few weeks. Now you've sorted your house, you could just travel the country to show those of us that need it how to de-clutter - I'll just need to book a few [strike]days[/strike] weeks.

    Johanne - hope you don't need to wait until Friday
    Don't put it down, put it away - thanks Valli

    Thank you to all who post competitions & help the smooth running of the comps board

    SSL - Congratulations!!! - Just Tiamai to hear now.
    Witchypoo - sorry to hear your sad news, hope you enjoy the concert though - you're probably in need of a bit of fun.
    Mudbath - Sorry to hear about your thumb - I admire your positive attitude


    I'm joining in with the chanting:

    'johanne's baby will come before Friday and her OH will be with her and everything will happen pefectly'

    *whispers* Do you like the way i'm avoiding all references to flying today - thats cos I've done none! don't tell Pigpen.

    Before the budget we were paying that for diesel. It's gone up to 122.9 a litre - over the past week it's gone up about three times, so it might even have gone up again! :mad:

    Yep. It's now 123.9 :rolleyes:

    You've just reminded me that I need to try and unblock our bathroom sink. I've tried plunging it and there's lots of gunk coming up. I'm going to try (again) the old vinegar, bicarb, boiling water trick. Didn't work last time though :rolleyes:
