I've been doing a lot of overtime recently. The inevitable consequences of this are more pay, but less time at home.
This has helped me to justify making a purchase that I've been pondering over for a while now.
The irobot Roomba 581 vacuum cleaning robot arrived yesterday.
It's spent two half hour sessions tonight, roaming around our living room floor. The kids had a lot of fun watching it glide and spin about (as did we), disappearing under the furniture, and emerging again, sweeping the floor as it does so.
It has it's limitations i.e. it can't clean stairs, windowsills etc, but it's done a pretty good job of the floor. It's no substitute for a thorough 'spring clean', but for regular carpet hoovering whilst putting your feet up and having a cup of tea, it's ideal.
