Clean the oven
Do the ironing
Hoover under the sofa
Get rid of the cobwebs hanging from the ceiling in the hall
Clean the windows
Clean the kitchen floor
Change the cat's litter tray
Find the table in the dining room
Repair and wash the bedroom curtains
Polish the silver

Why am I still sitting here in front of my PC???

OMG I am going to find it now fab!

littlemissbossy · 20/09/2004 14:25

yes clairabelle, there's a few oven cleaning companies that come to your house and clean your oven... then for the windows there's the window cleaner, ironing the ironing lady, gardener etc. All from the littlemissbossy book of how to avoid housework

blossomhill · 20/09/2004 14:27

Cleaning the oven.

carla · 20/09/2004 14:27

But LMB our window cleaners told us it would be cheaper to replace the windowns than have them do the insides plus the secondary glazing

Titania · 20/09/2004 14:27

yes carla i do.....

i also need to fix the bathroom curtains since DH pulled on them too hard to draw them and ripped them....

and wash the window frames down....

The worst thing of all....put the little babygros in the loft now he has outgrown them (months ago!!) I hate doing that......

clairabelle · 20/09/2004 14:29

Got the window cleaner and the gardener am too fussy about my ironing for anyone else to do it but am very excited about an oven cleaner person especially if they have a leopard skin botton like the one on the website.

littlemissbossy · 20/09/2004 14:29

Carla - why would it be cheaper? do you live in a mansion? OMG are you the queen?
