    Wipe sofas - what do people use to wipe leather sofas?

    I use Leather Wipes from Dunelm; if there were marks I'd use saddle soap.

    Laundry all ironed; another load prepped.

    I used to use Lord Sheraton Leather Wipes which are good but they were out of stock last time so I bought the Lord Sheraton Leather Shine Spray, I have to say I think the spray is far better both smell like marzipan, if you like that smell which I do :rotfl:
    Thank you, will go search

    oooo, saddle soap - reminds me of my childhood at the stables. 50p for all day including a lesson! Very smart uniform as well for horse cadets. I might look for some at the tack shop to take me down memory lane.

    Good morning

    So far:
    Wm x1 just finishing
    HHI
    Airing cupboard sorted
    Bins out for collection
    Bag for cs by the door hopefully for drop off later.

    Will try to find space to hang the washing up then I need to clean the en-suite. I also need to call the doctor’s as this has become a frog.

    Back later. Have a good day all.
  • Good morning :D

    Well done Valli on the weight loss

    So far to day I have walked the dog, WM x1, restacked the DW :mad: , checked the bank accounts, filed a few emails and deleted a few and had breakfast. Paid stuff today, so I may try and get a few more things done if they sleep this afternoon. The nearly 2 YO is a bit stroppy this morning - wish me luck!! :rotfl:

    On the subject of cleaning leather sofas, I used to use leather wipes from Wilko (they weren't that good tbh), but I am trying to not use disposable wipes now. I will look out for the spray :T

    Have a good day everyone!
