MrsChaos - I put my oven shelves in the bath with biological washing powder - cheapest you can find - and water and leave them to soak, then it doesn't take much elbow grease to clean them.

Does it not leave greasy tide marks in the bath though?

pooh I hope you are ok honey - thats a bit of a disastrous escapade! I hope you have a lovely evening out - hope its not an Agatha Christie evening:D:rotfl:I have had a lovely visit with Ann my minister friend. I dont seem to have done much today though so had better put that right.
toots xx

I was really relieved to see it was raining so we could get easily to the hotel, and now it is snowing again!! What a winter!
It isn't a murder evening but if I was supersticious I would be concerned about there being 13 of us!
I am pleased you had a nice time, don't do too much now to try to catch up. If I dare suggest that.:D

Kitchen is finished !!

V disappointed with milk delivery. I signed up over the weekend to give the milkman a chance to earn a living. It promised early morning delivery... Milk finally arrived at 10.50 and it wasn't what I ordered (not organic). Not happy, rang customer services who promised to send the correct order today. Am I right to be annoyed that at 17.25 I still haven't had a replacement and I've waited nearly all day for them to do the swap? Boys are begging to drink the stuff delivered - we normally get through 10 pints a day so this has resulted in all the smoothies being consumed.....

So let them drink it.. it won't kill them!

The milkman couldn't reuse it anyway as it may not as far as they are concerned been kept at the correct temps etc.
