Sorting

Having had some work done at the flat - ie the replacement of the bathroom ceiling, replacement of the kitchen ceiling and the kitchen taps replaced and re-plumbed - we have been spurred into a bit of Spring cleaning.  Incidentally the builder we had in to do the works was the best we've ever 'employed' and we've been through a few over the years. 

We have emptied the bathroom completely and only put back what we use - there were so many bottles of sun- cream and conditioners in the cupboard we could have started our own shop- binned. We had so many towels yet only use a couple each so removed the rest. 

We have emptied, cleaned and reorganised all the kitchen cupboards, getting rid of things that haven't seen the light of day since we moved along the way. Of course we are now in the state of opening the wrong cupboard to find things aren't in their familiar places, but we'll soon get over that. 

We've also done a bit of 'renovating' in the garden, and been through our seed store, ready for planting over the next couple of weeks. Having had butternut squash soup for lunch we have also saved a load of seed from that which we'll try to germinate. We'll plant in pots here ready for potting on to the lottie. 

Next job is to sort the guest room/my office/Cuddy's room ready for Becky's arrival next week ...
