    The day I post that I am giving up coffee will be a strange day indeed!!

    Anyway, Sea, queen of all things Flylady.........I am sure you are far more on top of things than you make out!

    Afternoon Hypno :hello:
    I'm glad to be able to catch up with you, I may have sorted my computer today, and I'll be back more regularly :beer:

    I'm so up straight with my housework (sorry :o ) that I'm even doing jobs postponed for years, like scrubbing the cat cack off the wall near his food bowls. I've even been watching back-to-back episodes of Kim'n'Aggie for hints....
    (did you know you can move a cooker out to clean behind it :confused: )

    AND I have no ironing left to do, now that I have no children or OH to look after.

    But I know what I'd choose, and it isn't a showroom house. ;)

    Duchy, def a good idea to mull things over with a coffee.

    OO I am impressed with the level of housework achieved. I can't move my cooker out, as it is a built in one. Actually for Christmas I am considering asking my mum to pay for one of those peeps that come out and clean your oven for you.....mine is quite shocking. The hob is shiny but the oven - well that is another matter entirely!

    PP, I have just pm'd you!

    Right, coffee finished, and an hour remains before I need to go to the supermarket, so best get on with this lounge.........catch you very soon, I am sure!!

    Oven? I'm sure I've asked this before, but is that the bit of the cooker with the glass door to display all the pretty casserole dishes inside? I can honestly say that mine is spotless, just like brand new! Wonder why?! :D

    I would like that too. It's the one place I hate doing. Left to my own devices it would still be clean but OH keeps using it!! He does give it the odd clean - usually when to turn it on alerts the smoke alarms - but it's never properly clean and when it's listed as a "to do" on the flylady list (which is quite often!!) I just delete that bit and pretend it wasn't there! maybe that should be my challenge for after the attic?

    El, it is the dining room next week - finishing off the lounge now.

    YM, perhaps if we could buy "elbow grease" then we would be fine.....do you reckon we could get it through quidco :confused:

    Self-cleaning ovens - whoever thought that one up was having a laugh, mine is anything but!!
