    QUESTION>>> Does the microfibre cloth thing and vinegar work on laptop/ flat screen tv's ok?

    It is what we use in my house.. 4 laptops and 1 flat monitor and we've not killed one yet! Alcohol works too but we'd rather drink that :p

  • Hi all! :hello:

    Another newbie here hoping to get the house organised with the help of DH! :)

    No kids or pets... we seem to make enough mess by ourselves! :eek::rotfl:

    Both me and DH work full-time. We're out tonight and tomorrow night, so I'm hoping to catch up with some tidying, cleaning and decluttering at the weekend and start flyladying on Monday if I can. :o

    Hope it's ok to join you. :)
