    Morning all

    Toots - Monday's list all done!

    I hope today's treatment goes smoothly for you.


    One load of washing on the line.

    Damp wiped the living room and computer desk too and then vacuumed right through downstairs.

    The cats got me up at 6.30 am so I thought I may as well crack on, it helps my sciatica if I move about a bit first thing too.

    Don't know if we're doing anything today, doubt it. Off to catch up now, hope everyone's OK.

    Most of us stick a load of soda crystals in the soap dispenser and white vinegar in the fabric softner compartment. Pop a couple of cleaning cloths in the drum and stick the machine on the hottest wash you have. Mine does a 95 degree wash.

    Hope that helps

    Put it on the hottest wash cycle (mine is 90C) with some soda crystals in the drawer if you've got them and some vinegar in the fabric conditioner bit. Run it empty or with your cleaning cloths in. It should smell lovely and fresh after :)
