S.O.S

I am excited.  Very excited, as excited and happy as I am in this picture (thats me on the right hand side with my sissy Shona and my Mum circa 1974/75)

Its not very often I get visits from my beautiful family members (NZ side) but for the second time my Mum and Step Dad are coming AND as an added bonus my lovely step sissy Dee is also coming to visit! YES! Its 19 weeks away and I am in FULL excel spreadsheet/planning/panic mode.

First problem challenge
Mum dosent scale the stairs very well and we have one and a half flights to get to the boudair section so we have to set them up in the office.  Thats not the challenge.  The challenge is that the office dosent have anywhere for them to put their clothes while they are here.  Any idears peoples?

Second problem challenge
Bathroom.  Namely - there is one.  While the fam is here that will mean that we will have 6 peeps for 1 loo/shower and when the girlies are home 8 peeps for 1 loo/shower.  I wonder how much a portaloo is?

Third problem challenge
15 days.  15 days available in their 45 day stay.  YEEK> I need your help.  Here is what the plan is so far ::
