Queenie you get one quick hug from me and then a kick up the bum!! My bathroom is a complete disgrace with rusting radiator, rust spots in the bath etc etc!! It doesn't matter, just a simple clean will make it so much better. By the way, wood effect vinyl is down to £4.99 a square metre in Homebase, that's exactly what I have on my floor and it's lovely on the toesys and extremely easy to lay just with the aid of a stanley knife.
Needmoney one swift kick up the bum for you too!!! Get going girl - procrastination is the thief of time!

I managed to do a thorough job on the living room this morning whilst watching our beloved Martin on the Wright Stuff.
Cleaned and hoovered out the coalfire and blackened it up - yucky job.
Hoovered picture rails and skirtings,
pulled out the sofa and hoovered underneath
used windowlene, mr sheen and orange oil - the room smells lovely
Treated myself to the Empire cinemas monday special. 11am £3 to see the
Producers. Next week Capote.
Tomorrow I will tackle the Bathroom and utility rooms.
Good luck Flyladies on our weeks mission.

Well I've done nothing
Just got in from work - was only planning to be there til 12pm :rolleyes:
I've made a cuppa - does that count?Bulletproof0 -
Just sat down with a cup of coffee and logged on, still feeling rather proud of myself. Not any more!! I've just read your post moggins and as soon as I finish my coffee I'm back to the bathroom to finish the job!!!:o
I had no idea I'd missed so much until I saw what you'd done:eek:
Oh well I can only get better. I hope.You never get a second chance to make a first impression.0 -
OK, I've just cut son's hair - into a mohican :eek:
I'll make them some tea then off to the bathroom I go.Bulletproof0 -

That's one for me, too. Zeebrite is the thing - grate product (gedditt?!?! :rotfl: :rotfl: ). Hard work, but what an effect!
I've just lost my freecycle vir9inity - got rid of my bed that's been in bits for a month since we got our new one. Thought it would have to be firewood, but have 8 people after it within 1 hour! :T :T :T
Kitchen is very tidy, but no time to clean. Big improvement, and will clean on Friday, promise.
Lots of papers sorted out. Lots to recycle bins. Using seagrass baskets to put (1) things for DH, DD, DS to put away, (2) things for me to put away (3) things that need attention. Stuff from freezer sorted, and list for shopping to use up stuff there. :j
I'm enjoying this! Must be a bit like the support you get at slimming world!

was it only me who chuckled at the rear passage way being cleaned.... ok i twas sorry
If I leave work now, I can get something done when I get home - you've all tired me out with your lists - Moggins and Queenie, can I request some timings from you both please!!! (if only to slow you both down in your cleaning!!!) Seriously though I am amazed at how much you get done. Queenie honey, big hugs - throw it out, decorate how you want, secretly put house up for sale, find new one to buyTell OH, that these lovely people came cold calling for purchasing house!!

Just spotted this post - if I sit down to read it all then nothing will get done on the ol' FLC, LOL!
Count me in! I just got my Mission for today on the email which is clear out under the bed - which certainly needs doing, so I'm starting there. Will read the rest of the thread later when my bedroom is hopefully looking slightly more respectable!0 -
