    Cups came up well with a bit of soda crystals dissolved in hot water and left to stand while I cleaned the kitchen. Then washed up as usual and all sparkly and back to pristine condition!

    Thanks for all the advice - it worked!

    I have taken mum to Mr S and done a little off my lists. Bulk of kitchen cleaning is going to wait until after I've cooked a curry for dinner as I'm not cleaning it twice!! Veg is on so it shouldn't be too long.

    so far done 2 loads of WM washed and hung up to dry, folded a huge pile of clothes and towels, dishes done and worktops washed, scrubbed the back door, skirting boards and radiator. also ordered DD to her room (of doom!!) to attempt some tidying. had a bit of a bad moment, took her fave white jeggings out of washing machine to find 3 purple stains on them that hadn't came out, poured some bleach on them. came back to find the bleach i used was 'arctic blue'! it came out with a really good rinse though. away to sweep kitchen floor (again) then get the bin cleaned.
