I love a good charity shop browse. If you pick your area you can get some really good stuff.

My DD did stint in the Heart Foundation Charity shop and would tell me when there was stuff in that I would like 

I used to get loads of books....read them and then return.

Is this thread like the what have you done today thread?

[san]

Yes, but chores as they are usually not a chosen thing but a necessary activity

[Limpy]

Yep - Cook is right, very much necessary activity not chosen things. Except for the G&T

[lady57]

I see well i have done no chores at all except for hoovering through now our christmas visitors have gone,

[CLKD]

Nope - it was started to see what chores we were doing .......... not what we had done pleasure wise.

Thanks Cook!  that covers how I feel about 'chores' 

Dusting, washing the floors, general clearing: however outdoors I can do repeat tasks without it bothering me
