Saturday chores
Nina: The kitchen's a state — can you do the dishes while I tidy the living room?
Raj: Sure. Then I really need to do the laundry, I've run out of shirts.
Nina: Same here. And the kids have completely messed up the playroom again.
Raj: Ha, no surprise there. Let's just power through it.
The big clear-out
Raj: Right, let's sort through these boxes in the cupboard.
Nina: Honestly, half of this we can just throw away.
Raj: Agreed. It'll be so good to get rid of all this clutter.
Nina: Definitely. Bottles and paper in the recycling bin, the rest in the bin.
