Lol! I like some of those!

Prompted by my sister I joined a US web thingy a few years ago called "Fly Lady...your personal household organisation coach" (or something like that). I don't go on it much any more, but it was usueful. Two of the things from it I still do regularly.

1. When you first go to the bathroom in the morning, give the basin and toilet a quick wipe round and run a cloth over mirrors.

2. When doing any sort of cooking, have a bowl of soapy water in the sink and wash things up as you go along. Saves time later. Though I don't have a dishwasher....

I clean almost everything with either bicarbonate of soda, vinegar and/or lemon juice, either singly or in combination. Vinegar is most definitely the best thing for cleaning any sort of glass. If you use newspaper to rub over afterwards it's even better.

Love Lynne
