Hi Jellie - when we didn't have a cleaner we hated coming home and ate out loads - for us having a cleaner originally was an economy!! I'm glad your OH is supportive. I think with your health it makes sense to have a cleaner - safeguard your energy for your OH and earning dosh!Achieve FIRE/Mortgage Neutrality in 2030

Thanks Saving. I think they have a cleaner next door so might ask for a quote. Also think my uncle may have one and he lives close by so maybe a second quote there and see how they compare.2019 fashion on a ration 0/66 coupons0

Would also love a cleaner as I do ALL the domestics in my house and with full time job/shopping/horses etc doesnt leave much time for cleaning.... Just would be worried about someone having a key and my pets....MFW 2011 No. 161 £946.54/£2000 TargetApril 9/15

I think I'd have to be around while they clean as I don't like giving out keys!

I guess if you get someone on recommendation or from a company giving a key would be ok. It just makes me nervous- I'd also want to know that they are doing what I've asked....... Control issues maybe 2019 fashion on a ration 0/66 coupons0

Well it was a busy and expensive weekend as we had family visiting. I'm hoping I'll get back into being more frugal when I get back to work!
I realized over the weekend that my t shirts are looking tired so have treed myself to some new ones. Now I just need to clear out the old ones to make space!
My casual trousers are looking a bit ropey too but the embroidered style I like doesn't seem to be about anymore. I might have to learn to do the embroidery myself!2019 fashion on a ration 0/66 coupons0
