    What you can do for those under the rim yucky bits is use long lengths of cotton wool soaked in vinegar. Pack it up well under the rim and leave it overnight, make sure you are the first one down in the morning though before anyone flushes otherwise you could end up with a blocked loo!

    Pigpen!!! If you don't pull your act together and stop running away to the pub with your mother I am going to expel you!! Or at least come up there and give you a big size 7 kick up the franny!!!!!

    I expect to see some results from you tomorrow. Do you really want to slip back? Look forward and think about how your house will look in a months time if you carry on without flying? Do you really want that back again? I know you have been getting discouraged with the work in the bathroom but there are still loads of other rooms to think about, the bathroom is only one room.

    Remember how proud you were when you first started flying and seeing results, get that pride back and get on with the tasks in hand!

    Ive done okay today, just waiting for tomorrows list before I go have a nice long soak in the bath.
    Going to be out all afternoon as I have offer to help at my local riding for the disabled, I'm very nervous as I'm a bit of a social phobic, but I love horses and hope that it will do me good as well.
    Always on the hunt for a bargain

    Yes Miss Moggins *curtsey curtsey* I am finding it very difficult because the muck keeps moving!! and my vacuum is upstairs and needs emptying and I can't lift it down.. can I just go hide tonight then??? PLEEEZE And I promise i might not go tomorrow.. *grin*

    The front room is desperate for a twinkle..

    I did wipe down all the kitchen again today though.. and cleaned the mucky fluff out of the dryer and scrubbed the ENTIRE table cloth not just the bit on the top they put their plates on, I did all the dribbles down the edges.

    Can I go if I load the DW with tea plates and pans and put the dryers on first??

    Apologies first Moggins, i got side tracked this afternoon and finally tackled the spare room/study as i have a friend coming to stay this weekend.

    I can now see the bed:j ,
    I have a pile of filing that is going to take at least half of tomorrow:eek: ,
    the computer desk can again be seen and i have made such a huge pile of shredded papers that the puppy is currently rolling around in it making even more mess and we loose him if he jumps in too deep!!

    So tomorrow I will -
    Dailies
    • [STRIKE]beds
    • WM
    • DW
    • Lunches
    • evening meal
    • kitchen ss
    • bathroom ss[/STRIKE]
    • hoover main areas

    Also
    master bedroom
    • [STRIKE]hoover
    • dust[/STRIKE]

    Moggins List
    Childrens rooms/[STRIKE]Spare room/Study/office[/STRIKE]
    1. [STRIKE]Tidy all of the above rooms you have
    2. Hoover (as above)
    3. Dust (as above)
    4. Dust all lampshades
    5. Clean marks off lightswitches[/STRIKE]
    Tackle filing, hotspots, and a 27 fling boogie (or as many bits of rubbish as you can find, if you don't have 27 things then well done)
    If the sun is shining (would be nice after two days rain)where you are open the windows and let some fresh air into those bedrooms, even if only for 10 minutes.


    Pigpen (((big kick in your direction))) enjoy your night at the pub very jealous of you getting out twice this week.

    I am now away to search this forum for how to remove choloclate ice cream from a cream top which also has a picture on it so cant bleach it:mad:
