Forgot to say though that I don't do sewing. The only thing I'm capable of doing with a needle is injuring myself. Wundaweb is a marvellous invention. Mandy :)

Oooh well done Gwynne, I think that deserves a glass or two after work;) I'm not keen on any aspect of the 'h' word but I do it because I like the end result! The thing I'm really putting off is unpacking the last few boxes from our move. They're out of sight in the garage and in the spare bedroom, so there's no incentive to get them done. Mandy :)

anything to do with clothes, Washing, hanging them out and especially putting them away. All those dissapearring socks and the kids out-grown clothes that have to be sorted out every two weeks coz they grow out of them sooooo quickly!!! I'd be quite happy to become a naturist given half the chance, but I don't think my neighbours would like it too much!!! LOL

Polishing the floors, they are due (only do it once a year), and I'm not looking forward to getting my knees bruised. Heather x

Cleaning windows - I loathe and detest it, and they always look smeary, no matter how hard I try! If I could get a window cleaner I'd pay him the earth just to do the outside. We've got tons of windows and the upstairs ones are really dirty at the moment.
