Well R&R got their house today and she's moved out. I shed some tears just before she went and managed to hold back the floodgates till she'd gone. They've bought a house 5 mins drive away from us so I know they're not far away but its awful seeing her room empty and her drawers cleared.

I went up to the house this afternoon to have a look round. Its a middle terrace but very spacious although its in need of a total redecoration and its filthy. So Reb got on with cleaning the kitchen and I volunteered to clear their bathroom. Boy I'd never seen such a scruffy bathroom before. The tiles were filthy, the toilet etc was scruffy but after two hours armed with Cillit Bang, bleach, toilet cleaner and a lot of elbow grease I left it gleaming. I couldn't bear for them to be in there and having to live with a filthy bathroom. So I left it sparkling and smelling of cleaning products so much fresher than before.

Had a bit of an episode with our son M. He works at a local pub and was supposed to be at work but decided to go AWOL as the bosses had really brassed him off. Anyway found out he and his mates had gone to Liverpool. He's just come bank and gone to work so I think he'll be in for some harsh words when he gets there. God its hard being a parent!
