Ooh Mrs R I would have been tired just typing that list

I was proud when I read that toilet brushes are a 'no no' as I agree, so I do not have one..I think they are rank! Unfortunately thats the only thing from your list that makes me feel virtuous

the rest is what my brain wants to do but my body just will not follow?

Never even heard of Ecover or the sarah jane cloths (was it sarah jane can't remember now) but off to google them. And I have not tried cream cleaner since I lived at home so may give that and the limescale remover a go as at the moment I just use star drops (well I say I 'use' it but actually its in the cupboard for emergency cleans when we are having visitors

)

Bring on the cleaner who will make me (like Hypno) do panic tidies before she arrives

which in itself will be worth the money :cool:

Thank you so so much Mrs R!!! From that, I reckon you are worth every hard earned penny :T

Of course, my own two hour cleaning routine goes something like this.....

Go into kitchen and assess whether there is a clean teaspoon available. Pop kettle on to boil and while waiting for it to do its thing, hunt for said teaspoon, take dirty one out of dishwasher, and clean. Then, take coffee of choice and decant it into a rather lovely Mug. At this point, if I am feeling v. active, I will open cupboard close by and briefly consider makings of storecupboard meal for later. By now, kettle has boiled, and coffee can be completed.

Taking drink as I go, and being careful where to put it, move into lounge, moving stuff from one part of the sofa to another in order to create sufficient space to park one's bot. Promising to just have 5 mins before starting on housework "proper", pick up the laptop and log into MSE.

2 hours later, moan on MSE about the lack of productivity despite all best intentions, and go back into the kitchen. Put kettle on and look for a clean teaspoon.........

Oh hypno that really made me laugh and made me feel better :A
