I’ll do a gift exchange, I love decluttering and getting rid of ‘stuff’ in exchange will you please wipe down my doors and skirting boards? Where does the grubbiness come from ?

@Anrom19 You are absolutely on with that offer! 😁

Garden needs turning over, and the oven could do with a clean. That would be the dream.

I'll have a new conservatory please. The old one is...old.

Me too, it's getting urgent and we've no more spare money.

New flooring in the entrance hall
New worktop and integrated sink. I don’t mind keeping the one in the utility room though.
Someone to buy and plant loads of shrubs and plants to finish my garden. And find me a beautiful amelanchier tree.

Not much really - new kitchen, log burner for lounge, new internal oak doors, and maybe a new en-suite if the gift giver is feeling generous 😆
