Exactly. On returning we stayed indoors, i did all the holiday washing in 4 small sorted loads. All washed and dried and put away or ready for ironing before we went to bed.
I didn’t sleep well last night. We had the air cooler on all night. We don’t have air con in the house, but each room is equipped with a portable fan and some with ceiling fans. We have now put electric air coolers in each bedroom, work well but very noisy. It was the noise that disturbed me,
Today I must change our bedding and wash the towels as well as preparing the beds and rooms for our visitors. Outside I need to prune back the wisteria that provides shade to our outdoor seating area. In 5 days it has grown vigorously, obscuring my climbing runner beans that are growing up the support poles. Otherwise a bit of shopping. Bob wants to look at wash basins for the new ensuite he is building in the mater bedroom.
