I would need lessons in the wheelchair first  ;D

Apparently Wickes have had a run on domestic paint and brushes ........ all these men self isolating are being 'encouraged' to do all those jobs  ;D

I've attempted to clean the oven today. I need to remove the glass from the door in order to screw the door handle on as it is very loose. Done it before, but the screws won't budge. DH had a go too, then said my daughters partner can do it for us. No he can't says I, we are in isolation! It will have to be used with great care.

Yes tried that. Leaving it overnight, see if we can unscrew it or heat it up and see if that helps. Tomorrow is another day! I've left the shelves soaking in cleaning stuff in a bag and stuff inside the oven overnight. I consider cleaning the oven, the shower cubicle and the gutters the worst jobs. Go on like this and the house will be cleaner than it's been for a long time! And no one to appreciate it apart from me and DH.

I still have an excuse. No jobs like that for me until lambing is over  :). Even then I'd rather muck out the sheds than clean the house...

Be nice to be outside as the suns out, but it's still a tad chilly and I'm betting the mowers will start come out of their winter hibernation x
