Spring Cleaning
Just wondered if you had all started your spring cleaning yet
Annie are you in your deckchair or do you have your rubber gloves on
I just pulled out my washing machine and tumble drier, was
when I saw the amount of dust there was underneath. Have got the bug now the weather is nice, must do all the cupboards next, happy days from Linell.

Re: Spring Cleaning
Yes Lin, the nice weather does make a difference.
1st on my list - the bathroom needs sprucing up, so far I've painted the ceiling and hope to do more at the weekend

Re: Spring Cleaning
Yeah well done San you are a star! a model of spick and span!
Can I ask a question
why move these things cos what you cant see don't hurt you
I move mine every week to clean and dust but then I am a slave to housework

A person should have an opinion on everything, It becomes tact whether you reveal that opinion or not.

Clever man! Does he get a sore arm about this time every year, Mally?
Some mistakes are too much fun

Re: Spring Cleaning
I was running out of room in my bookcase so I went through all my old tax files and threw out anything over 5 years old. Does that count as spring cleaning? I love chucking things out, its my favourite thing

Re: Spring Cleaning
I've been painting too! supposed to be having tiles laid next week but will believe that when it happens.
My Pilates teacher is venturing out into selling eco-friendly cleaning products and I'm waiting until the ship arrives with more. I bought some last year and loved then (though they are very very expensive here). They come in pretty colours and natural smells so that I actually wanted to clean house - and I hate cleaning! So, if you want to kickstart your springclean, try looking for Method cleaning products. The pink grapefruit spray smells yummy.
