Any views on what to clean windows with, I have been using window spray ( smells nice, doesn't work too well) and meths (stinks, works less well) they are sadly neglected, do I give in and just use neat bleach?!
Happy Flying...
I know the answer to this as I am now addicted to Kim and Aggie!!!!
They used lemon juice cos it had a nicer smell than vinegar, and they just splashed it on and wiped it with a paper towel/kitchen roll and then buffed it up with some newpaper!!!
Im going to try it on my patio doors, as i never seem to be able to get them streak-free......

Morning all, lovely day here.
Two loads of washing on the line, including my bedding, and it's drying well. I love typing that!
So, I've done all the bedrooms today Toots:) and I've done the bathroom and toilet too Toots
As far as I remember my two stars I already have are for the living room and kitchen so I think I can have two more now.
Also, I've made a batch of Easter biscuits using the last of my oil of cassia and a fruit cake.
Vacuumed through downstairs and all the washing up is done and put away.
I'm not really being good, I'm having a day out with DD2 tomorrow so I want everything done. I don't mind doing some housework over bank holiday weekends but I don't like having loads to catch up on, I'd much rather do it early.
Hope everyone's OK, I haven't caught up yet this morning.0 -
Pantry done, except can't do floor as DD2 will wake up as she hates the hoover.
Off to do the fridge, and DH is digging the garden, yay!Please do not confuse me with other gratefulsforhelp. x0
