Blimey no. It would only remind me of what I;m meant to be doing.

AllieBongo · 23/05/2006 12:11

there was a big one on how to clean a brabantia bin...

pecka · 23/05/2006 12:10

I really want a housekeeping topic too

please please please

MrsBadger · 23/05/2006 12:09

I think there may be a genuine demand for a Housekeeping topic.
I mean, when a thread about pegbags gets more than 70 posts, and 'Laundry baskets - where are they situated in your house?' gets 179...

AllieBongo · 23/05/2006 12:05

Cappucino · 23/05/2006 12:04

eek!

AllieBongo · 23/05/2006 12:02

i could start a thread called
"101 cleaning uses for an old toothbrush and some bleach"

WelshBoris · 23/05/2006 11:57

Ok I grudginly admit I may lurk sometimes Blush

lucykate · 23/05/2006 11:55

Cappucino · 23/05/2006 11:25

fullmoonfiend · 23/05/2006 11:22

can't beleive I'm ac tually interested or having this discussion but - that's exactly the sort of tip I need cappucino, thanks. Does it not leave oily marks?

Cappucino · 23/05/2006 11:21

I mean lavender oil

[slightly less smug]

fullmoonfiend · 23/05/2006 11:21

Tutter - that was probably me Blush
(the reasoning goes, I may look like a bag lady but I smell nice...)

Cappucino · 23/05/2006 11:21

scented ironing water is a consumerist con!

I put two drops of lavender water in my steam water

[smug emoticon]

fullmoonfiend · 23/05/2006 11:19

not interested or nuffink..but > Cod, what scented ironing water do you recommend?

TheFlameWhoWasAfraidOfTheDark · 23/05/2006 11:18

pmsl @ Nasty Stains!!!

Blu · 23/05/2006 11:14

Or one called 'Nasty Stains'.
That would pretty much cover it, one way and another.

zippitippitoes · 23/05/2006 11:05

perhaps just an old fogeys topic

Cappucino · 23/05/2006 11:04

older mums need more support

it's the day when someone starts posting as Cathy1988 or whatever that I dread
