DH did 5 hours straight of pressure cleaning the entertaining area and the driveways and retaining walls. Looks great but a big job.
So today it's a final sweep and tidy of the lot and some gardening.

Wasn't hard for me Yvette but DH is feeling it this morning.

I'm going to Good Guys today to have a look at the Dyson 44 animal. They have it on sale for $528 less for cash, I think JulieO paid $525 for hers at HN. They have the DC35 advertised for $399. Want to know what makes the 44 $127 better.

Part of the drive and retaining walls DH had to clean.

Mich I want one, there is a comparison on site somewhere the 44 lasts a bit longer and think more suction let me know how you go.

We have been in the house for 2 1/2 years and this is the first time. It's needed doing ever since we moved in.

They look great Robyn. It wouldn't be such a big job if it was done more often. Everything needed doing when we first moved in.
Even though the house was only 10yrs old it hadn't been looked after.

The most stressful part of yesterday for me was reversing DH's 4WD down the drive it is very long and steep and has a bend in it, I don't even like reversing my little corolla down it. DH makes me nervous too barking directions, because he drives B doubles he can reverse anything anywhere and gets annoyed that I'm so hopeless.  :-[

A good job done out of the way mcmich. I can relate to the reversing car part, you should have seen me trying to reverse small trailer.  Not fun, well not for me anyway but others thought it hilarious.

I would rather take a trailer off than reverse it.

Today we went to the accountant. Yay ;D ;D I MAY be able to buy something I have been coveting and certainly don't need. ;)
I believe Robyn is getting one and Gert would like one. Perhaps when we get home from SA.
