Frizzle in my wm instruction booklet there's a cleaning cycle instructions but I tend to just run it on a hot wash with NO detergent or a handful of washing soda once in a while.
Just realised I did everyone else's pack up last night but not mine! Just got to shoo Ds2 out wash up and I'm gone.

The rest of the room is a tip, but if I shut the cupboard doors and just look up, I am happy :rotfl:
Hope that quote works I'm on the I pad - maybe my new mantra will be "just shut the cupboard doors and look up"!
Morning all 3 x 2wm on line because couldn't get any out yesterday.
Haven't run DW not enough pots:j:T
