    drumroll please!! I have attempted to clean my ovens!!! :eek::eek::eek::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    think it's going to need more than one go though :( even with a brillo pad and some astonish stuff there's still burnt on gunk at the bottom. And I've got some liners to go in the bottoms once they are clean too! :D:D

    Not too much else to report - ooo apart from the brand new flower bed that my dad has dug over for me - tomorrow I'll rake it over, and then plant it up!! :D:D can't wait!!

    Off to declutter tea (homemade lentil & bacon soup) & then some flying ;)

    hugs to those that need them!

    Totally off topic - but I couldn't think who else to ask :o

    I had an Avon catalogue delivered about three weeks ago. It had two free samples with it (one of which I have managed to lose by dropping it out of the bag...no idea where it went!). It's not something I'm interested in, so I put it to one side, expecting it to be collected. Obviously these things cost money (to someone, if not the reps) so I wasn't going to bin it.

    It has now become its own Hotspot - attracting thing to itself on top of the microwave because it hasn't been collected. I have the lady's first name and mobile number on the order form. Should I ring her and ask for it be collected or is three-four weeks a normal time frame between drop off and collection?
