are you talking your OLD kitchen room or your NEW kitchen room to be ??

im picturing books in that huge kitchen to be and thinking thank god i dont have to dust em ...:rotfl::rotfl:

Old kitchen, new study!

New kitchen/cheese room is going to be properly lime washed we think (itsme will be pleased with me!). But we were going to use modern paint in there:rotfl: for easy wipeability.

The books and dusting and the kitchen are all other issues. We think not all the books will fot in the study. . I have atleast four big bookshelves full of cookery books, which i don't really want in the kitchen, but somewhere i can sit relax and read them, bring in the ones i want at the time.

But the kitchen ceiling is going to need dusting and i cannot see how we will do it. I need a help ful tame bird, or some sort of trained squirrel/monkey.

I thought thats what spiders are for

Rhiw, your spiders must be better trained than mine.

I like spiders, we have plenty of flies frm the cows and plenty of mozzies, the spiders and the bats are essential in helping us, so live webs i am happy to coexist with...but those ones that drape and gather dust and whose spinner has long since eaten a husband and laid her eggs have no place in a room i cook food in imo!

Let's be honest we're a bunch of old (& some not so old) crocks on here. I'm starting to wonder if we could make one decently fit body between us :rotfl:
Rhiw, Choille hope you're both back to 'normal' soon.

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: im not sure what body part i can offer ! even my brain is lacking ! :rotfl::rotfl:
does stubborness count ??

Itsme, the ad came from a chambers of 1906. But this and this are possibly my favourites.

You sound in good spirits so I may just set you some item teasers again, from Germany and Japan, if you're up for it

:rotfl::rotfl: son nearly gave my "old lady" heart attack when he walked a 10ft high wall to remove branches for her.. :rotfl::rotfl:

a long pole with what looks like a figure of eight of lightweight bristly stuff does it... perfectly
cobwebs that is not to get son on wall...:D

A trained cleaner or OH does quite well.
Seriously, it depends how high you have to reach. For some of my ceilings I can use a long telescopic dusting brush.
A couple of times a year it's getting up a ladder with either the steam cleaner or the hoover to completely clean the beams off.
To get to the very top of the ceiling it's either a double ladder or the scaffold tower.

I keep all my cookery books in the larder &, as you say, fish some out when wanted.
