I've been good this morning and done some ironing before I've even turned the computer on! I've now got a mound of clothes to put away though which I'm just going to start on.
I'm going to do some more ironing when Quincy is on at 10 and then that should be the worst of it done!NST #10 Steps 7K 2/30 10K 2/12 5 a day 3/30 NSD 0/20

MOJT - well done, hope it goes well this morning. Where are you off to on holiday?
Soappie - hope the weather picks up, have a good day
Orkney - I won't worry about not giving blood on holiday, it won't be high up on many people's list at that time. Good to hear you are having such fun cleaning, suppose there is always one lolDon't put it down, put it away - thanks Valli
Thank you to all who post competitions & help the smooth running of the comps board0 -
The problem with all this cleaning is that it uses every cloth and duster I own, so I have to do a hot wash about once a week! Not good for the gas bill, but probably good for the washing machine to have a proper clearout anyway.
Oooh, just a quick one as I catch up - I had to have my wm fixed about 18 months ago and the guy said don't bother with all this calgon stuff, just put a whole bag of washing soda into your machine, run it on its hottest setting (with your cloths in if you want) to clean the machine out and get rid of all the limescale - do this about every 6 months - had no problems since (not sure if that is the reason, but not complaining)
