Nothing really, bit of cleaning and tidying but not essential as we aren't having any visitors or anything. Feel like I should be rushing around like everyone else but I honestly can't think of anything I need to do! Come tomorrow I bet I'll be running round mad doing all the things I should have done today and forgot about

Still have to do the food shopping and dh says the masses are queueing in their cars all the way back to the entrance to the car park at tesco. Good job my parents are taking me to the farm shop while dh looks after the kids.
