This month's photo an hour challenge was chosen by Jane last month and fell on Sunday 19th April.
9am - A bit of morning reading before breakfast with a rather {ahem} intriguing character.
10am - While breakfast was cooking (sausages and potato & cheese patty thingies) we made a morning tipple (tea for me and coffee for him).
11am - Breakfast over and done with and it was time to decide which bit of housework to do first. The weather outside looked nice but was darn windy!
12pm - I might, just possibly, have not actually cleaned my dressing table for a month or two. First job of the day then ended up being cleaning the bedrooms.
1pm - Cleaning was my job but Andrew's was shimmying up a ladder and fitting a burglar alarm box to the side of the house.
2pm - Bedrooms cleaned and it was on to the bathrooms (never a nice job really).
3pm - The in-laws popped round to see how Andrew was getting on and we stopped for tea and biscuits, meaning that I missed the 3pm slot by about 45 minutes!
4pm - More washing, more cleaning.
5pm - Time to stop for a bit and browse t'interweb.
6pm - Andrew pulled me outside to see the result of all his hard work!
7pm - Then it was on to dinner, checking on the potatoes we'd chucked in the oven a bit earlier.
8pm - Roast chicken and all the veg for dinner with plenty of gravy, of course.
9pm - More food but this time putting together our packed lunches for Monday (cheese sandwiches and a hot cross bun).
10pm - And to bed, catching up with Portillo's State Secrets on BBC's iPlayer (although the episode about Jack the Ripper probably wasn't quite the best choice just before bedtime...).
16 lovely people joined in this month and a big thank you to everyone who took part or joined in the fun on the day by commenting on Twitter or Instagram!
So who did we have then?

I hope I've managed to include everyone, I'll update the list as and when blog posts appear but give me a shout if you took part and I haven't included you. If your blog post goes live at a later date, that's absolutely fine, just let me know and I'll pop you in.
Next month I'm going to go with Saturday 23rd May - it's the Bank Holiday weekend so I thought that might a good date to pick. Pop it in your diaries and I'll also tweet everyone the day before as a reminder - see you then!
Also, check out what I was up to in...
