Marmaduke had a bath!!!!!! Courtesy of my dad. I hinted enough. For three solid days. It paid off though.
Anyhoo, the meal last night at Dexter's in MK and watching Juno was a good night. Though maybe next time I should book the table for an hour and a half before the film starts, so we don't have to walk past people to get to our seats. I'll remember that if we do it again.
I've been doing so much voluntary slave labour today, it's weird. But my mum did her back in at work on Wednesday night and is having major trouble doing everything, so I'm having to do loads of stuff to make her rest every now and again. My dad is no help at all on that front. On Friday, she did all the housework except the hoovering because she couldn't face lugging a heavy hoover all round the house, and she washed her car, on top of all the usual stuff you do everyday (e.g. laundry and washing-up). She dropped hints that the hoovering needed to be done, but my dad obviously needs several days of hints to get the point. So I've been doing that (it really takes time you know, if you do it thoroughly), washing-up (it's Sunday roast day! I hate that roasting tin!!!!!), tidying...okay this doesn't sound a lot now. I'm sure I must have done something else because otherwise what else would I have done with my time?! Ooooooo! Out of interest, does anyone have a Dyson hoover? I want to know if they're any good. Whether they actually suck up the dirt and whether cleaning the filter is a pain in the arse (like it is in our current hoover)??? My mum and I are on a mission to find a good hoover, but we can't justify the expense of buying a new one each week.
Talking of Dyson, look at this:
It's a Dyson hand-dryer!!!!!! They have them at Addenbrooks hospital. My mum tried it and apparently, it dries your hands in just a couple of seconds. Completely dry! Hand-dryers are normally useless. I want to go to hospital to try it out!
I'm totally ready for work tomorrow. I don't know why I'm looking forward to it, because it's just a load more Year 9 SATS mock tests, but I am. I'm really too optimistic today. It's wrong. Maybe I'm ill...
