If you had a message/call from someone to say they would be at your house in 20 minutes, what would you clean?
Especially if the whole house is a tip and you decided to drink tea and eat chocolate because you didn't know where to start.
Where would you start and what would you do?
I need to be prepared for next time!

Sprayed the downstairs loo with cleaner.
Bleached the loo.
Cleaned flat surfaces in living room.
Washed dried and put brekkie dishes away.
Cleaned miniscule porch (7 pairs of shoes in there).
Hoovered kitchen, living room and hallway and 4 stairs that are visible from front door.
Wiped sink and flushed and filled loo with toilet duck.
Put kettle on and stuck crap from kitchen in utility and shut the door.
I thought I did really well!

Nothing, I'd tell them that I was out.

Make sure toilet and handbasin clean enough, clean hand towel.

Straighten lounge.

Stack and dirty dishes, wipe kitchen sides, quick sweep if needed.

Open windows, quick loo clean, pick up mess from lounge floor and sweep kitchen floor.

Nothing would get done properly but it would all look ok on a superficial level.

I'd also be going "excuse the state of the house!"
