This geezer is coming around today to clean up dog shit from our back garden. What a job. He comes round, clears it all up, then takes it away. 'So...what do you do for a living?' ..... how would you answer that?? There's an entire Winter's worth of shit out the back for him to pick up, lovely! 50 bucks to do a 'Spring Clean' and if we want, he'll come around weekly for 10 bucks (tempting as G *never* does it although he is supposed to!).
Speaking of G not doing things, if he doesn't put away the clean laundry upstairs tonight I may not be responsible for my actions.
Baby had a 'hyperactive' day yesterday, I swear he did not stop moving once. Hopefully this is not a sign of things to come. He's quieter today, just a few bumpings around in there, probably exhausted poor chap! I also had a hyperactive day yesterday in the end. I shampoo'd every carpet in the house. The previous owners, for some peculiar reason and despite having 2 children, decided it would be a good idea to have cream carpets throughout. Obviously they were much more anal about spillages than we are - as when we moved in they were still fairly immaculate. No longer, of course, so regular shampoo'ings are very much necessary.
Spent this morning responding to a journo about chat safety (again). It does annoy me when these people are out to do obvious scare-mongering and inaccurate reporting. No doubt my responses will be misquoted in Friday's paper which is a shame as it's the paper local to where I grew up, and where most of my family live, and where my Dad worked as a young reporter many years ago!
