After cleaning and drying the freezer, I had a thought - as oil is hydrophilic, surely if I coated the inside of the freezer with a tiny amount of cooking oil, this should make the thing less likely to ice up again? So I've tried this and await the results from my experiment :cool: [this is where everyone else chips in with 'we do that already - didn't you know?']

Cleaner came today and did a not-bad job (no damages which is always good!) I, meantime, went into town then up to my mum's, then with her to the cattery, back to her's, home for lunch, *back* into town, round the shops and then home again. The repeat trip was the result of poor memory on someone's behalf ;p But I do now have a Christmas present to stow away and yarn for my next SANDS shawl.
I was going to go out tonight (to Stitch 'n' !!!!!) but am feeling tired and shivery (a cold?) and really can't be doing with a third trip into the city. Fortunately I have a bus pass.
I was also going to have a go at Tuesday's list this afternoon but shall take tonight off and hope I'm feeling better tomorrow. I wonder what Wednesday holds for us?
Morning routine was done this morning and the evening swish 'n' swipe will happen when I've eaten. Aha - was that the cooker timer pinging?Household: Laura + William-cat

Off to take hoover and duster upstairs while im at it and clean the bathroom

Will crack on now
