I can't believe how much black mould/mildew is in my undersink cupboard :eek: Sprayed loads of demoulder, window is as open as I dare have it in the rain and I'll be putting a few dehumidifiers under there when I can stand to get near the cupboard again!
Its also given me a chance to empty all the bottles out. Can't remember when I last emptied it out, some of the bottles have lost their labels, some are empty (no idea how they've gotten back under there!) and I've found some things I didn't even know I had! Will be making a list and sticking it to the inside of the cupboard door so I don't end up going out and buying stuff when I have something suitable under the sink. Also sorted through all the gardening bits in there where I found a newspaper from 2009
Oh well, not much else can be done now until the cleaner has worked it magic. Really can't believe how much stuff I have to clean with considering the state of the placeCreeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!0 -
