Morning everyone

Will tackle everything else on my list of yesterday in a bit. But for now, Froddington has set me a lovely little puzzle which I WILL solve!

And I have to say you are brilliant at it! Thank you!

Welcome the all the newbies

toots - thanks! I just phoned my dad to say I wouldn't be round and he kindly told me I sound awful :rolleyes: My eyes and one side of my nose are running - the other nostril is blocked - and I alternate between sneezing and coughing!!! Ah well, hopefully it won't last long!

pigpen - enjoy your cuddles with Tabitha

I have eaten some lunch and am now going to veg on the sofa and watch the footie.

Back down again - I'm losing the will to live :rolleyes:

After a firm ticking off littley is now up there doing her bit, trouble is there wont be much in the rubbish bag which is why I like to do it now and again thoroughly....still.....I can see the floor now and half of her walk in cupboard is clear-ish, just 2 double wardrobes & 20 drawers to go through now. Then I can start on her clothes.

Welcome Nellis :hello:

Still no flying done as when I went to go for shower OH nipped into bathroom so I decided to book holiday flights and it took ages. Mainly because I was switching between 2 websites to see who came up cheapest and by the time I went back I had to reenter the information. Then you have to add all the passport numbers and details etc so took way to long which is why I am still in dressing gown. Anyway its done now (and we dont go until August :rotfl: )

Right shower and then Flying !!!!!

• Cleaned the washing machine and am currently steeping the powder drawer!

Well done on your HHC nellis... if you have DW, Pigpen's tip for this is to bung the WM drawer in the top rack of the DW to get it clean. I've been doing that for the last few months and it works beautifully!

Get yourself some soda crystals and vinegar (and any dirty cleaning cloths while you're at it!). Put the cloths in the drum. A couple of scoops of soda crystals in the detergent dispenser, and vinegar in the softener dispenser (about the same amount as you'd use of fabric conditioner), and put it on the hottest wash the machine will do (mines 90 degrees) on the longest cycle (usually a cotton one).

Hopefully that will clean out the mould where the drawer goes as well as any other gunk in the machine! As a general rule, soda crystals get rid of grease, vinegar gets rid of limescale.
