- Oil squeaky doors and drawer hinges.
- Swap over to LED light bulbs
- Clean behind your radiators.
- Clear out of date tins from your food cupboards.
- Re-silicone the shower.
- Organise your kitchen drawers.

Thanks for reading and remember these wise words from Charlie Mackesy’s brilliant book – The Boy, The Mole, The Fox, and The Horse.
“This storm is making me tired,” said the boy. “Storms get tired too,” said the horse, “so hold on.”
Thanks for reading,
