    I got a bit distracted just then as the postie arrived. However, in my HHC I managed to get all the porcelain, taps, tiles and shower screen scrubbed and shiny.

    I usually do it a bit at a time, but with Mr LW at home today, it's unfair to tell him he can't use the bathroom for a whole 2 hours.:D

    I'm all out of breath now, so will have a time-out, I think.:o

    Poohbear just you take it steady my girl, or you'll have me to answer to!;):o:D

    I was tempted to post a reply - but then I decided to treat that thread with the contempt it deserves.

    Thanks hun, I'll read it with my lunch in a bit.

    Just having a wee break whilst the vinegar works it's magic in the shower room.

    I've just made my best spelt loaf to date :j (shame the chocolate cake sunk, I knew it would as soon as it went in the tins - never minds the crater will mean more chocolate icing I guess.

    Not sure how much more I'll achieve now - quick dust of the living room perhaps and then lunch, wash and change for the joys of this afternoon's English Exam; I wonder how their minds will be stretched in this one.
