Washing up (as long as I have Marigolds available).

Cooking...but only interesting things.

Hassled · 03/12/2013 22:11

Oh yes hoovering, too. Something where you see an immediate difference and that difference will last more more than half a day.

Putting a good wash on- the right colours and amount.

Removing the lint from the clothes dryer filter.

Weird, eh?

Polishing the mirror-finish glass front on my stove so that DD can actually use it as a mirror!

I LOVE bleaching the loo. Always have lol. I like to think of all the germs looking up at me as I'm unscrewing the bleach bottle before I squirt it all around and it trickling down the loo like a tsunami killing all in it's path. I have an active imagination lol

Waxing and polishing all my wooden furniture. I love watching a shine develop.

Lj8893 · 04/12/2013 13:13

Dusting and polishing! Love the smell of furniture polish and I just feel that the house feels so much cleaner and fresher when its done!

BrownSauceSandwich · 04/12/2013 17:01

Also polishing wooden furniture. Or really tarnished silver... So satisfying!

Vacuuming pleases me a lot now I've ditched my Dyson.

I like act of cleaning things like the work tops, sinks, hob etc. it's just the fact they stay clean for about 3 seconds that annoys me.

Frontdoorstep · 04/12/2013 19:05

I like everything to do with doing the washing.

cantthinkofagoodone · 04/12/2013 19:08

Dusting
Filing

I just can't relax when it's cluttered

CremeEggThief · 04/12/2013 19:48

Gardening and hanging washing on the line

mrssmith79 · 04/12/2013 22:05

Cleaning the bathroom. Ah, the smell! The shine! The perfectly arranged and co-ordinating towels! For all of about ten minutes 'til dh gets in there and undoes all of my hard work.

gaggiagirl · 04/12/2013 22:09

Laundry,just love it. Its pointless me even having a laundry basket really. Anything dirty goes directly into the machine.
