    Gawd this is turning out to be a right job....I've now pulled all the sealant up from around the bath and am now trying to scrape the rest of the jelly like bits off :eek: its going to take ages.

    Then I'll spray with the mould spray, in the meantime I'd better pop out and get some new sealant and a toilet seat and maybe a new shower head.

    BTW I found 13 bottles of various bathroom cleaners hidden round the back of the loo and the sink, including 2 bottles of mould cleaner/remover.:rotfl:
