    Morning!

    Thanks for the lists, ladies, I'm in, following my own lists.

    Have just sprayed the shower tiles with black mould stuff, will rinse later. Kitchen fairly straight so shouldn't take long to whizz round later. I need to nip out - may get a flu jab - and I have college work. I've done part 1 and prepped part 2 so it just needs fitting together so it reads well.

    Most rooms are reasonable, some "stuff" left the dining room last week - 2 bags for chazza, some SW recipe books sold and a laundry hamper sold. There was another to be collected but she never arrived and didn't seem to think it was worth contacting me :mad:

    Ebeast stuff didn't sell, no watchers even, probably because it was stuff I can't post. Will try once on FB selling pages then I'm giving them away!

    Right, account needs checking first!

    Ionafan, when you go away and your OH walks the dog, hide the short lead from him, so he HAS to use the long lead, that way he wont get in a muddle and Rosie wont be able to go wandering off.

    So far today
    WM x 4 I think will be on the go
    Beds stripped one remade
    Whole house hoovered
    Toilets bleached
    Bins done

    Are any of you lovely lot anywhere near Keele university?

    My daughter hasn't had her student finance through yet, her phone has broken, she has no idea where she is or how to get to uni from her house.. she may need help lol.. she is a twit!!

    2 x WM
    2x laundry on the line.. it's blowing a gale out there.. fabulous weather!

    twinkle was sick in her bed last night so all that is in the WM now..

    Sorting Next returns and then hopefully I am on my way to get stuff organised..

    Oh, and as a little aside note... the mortgage company have agreed I can take over the mortgage in just my name.. they are just deciding whether they need to get CF signature or not as he is not on the deeds.. if they decide they do need it they will take him to court and force him to sign and send him the bill.. Chelsea Building Society may be the best!! And Tom their mortgage advisor is wonderful.. they will be getting a shining review if they pull this off!!

    Pigpen this is no help but my son is hopefully on his way home from Keele University. He was supposed to come back yesterday after visiting his girlfriend but missed his train or something. He says the buses are very complicated so your DD is not alone in her confusion. Then again I dont think DS really wanted to leave his GF and come home.

    Feeling much more chirpy today, forced myself to go to the gym which helps. I have to rise above the situation at work because I have decided to stick it out for now.

    More paid stuff to do. Committee meeting tonight, not very enthusiastic.

    Ionafan that ^ ^ ^ is exactly what I was going to say! In fact, put the short lead in your luggage, so that he can't inadvertently find it. ;) It's easy enough to set a flexi-lead to a short length if you need to, so he'd be able to manage just fine with just the flexi-lead.
    I never let my guests off lead on their walks, even if I've been assured they have "perfect" recall; there only needs to be something just too distracting for just a second.....
    They get their off-lead exercise in the back garden.;)

    Very little Flying happening here; the girls simply take up all my time and energy (but they're worth it).
    Mr LW has gone outside to sweep up leaves - does that count? :o

    YL re work - would it help to imagine the idiots sitting there in their unmentionables? :D Might just take the edge off the situation. :o
    If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)

    I'm in and a big thank you for the list which I love as my DH cleaned the kitchen last night so everything is done!

    Quiet week for work so hope to have a sort out this week. Famous last words. I may actually just sleep as feeling a little under the weather :D
