Crumbs - doesn’t matter how often I hoover

Mess - I’m constantly tidying up something

Washing - can easily put on a load or two every day

Kids - I have three and they are 90% responsible for the above. DH is responsible for the other 10%!

Spider webs. They appear overnight, yet I never actually see any spiders. It's ridiculous!

Craft stuff, pet hair and chocolate. If you removed it, the house would fall down!

Shoes, books, Warhammer, gaming consoles, Lego, types of cheese and until recently pets.

Excessive numbers of all of them.
