Just curious - i always do my cleaning on a Sunday morning - after breakfast, in my pyjamas and then when all the house is sparkly i go and have an indulgent soak in the bath, change into comfy sunday clothes and then prepare dinner.

What made me ask this is i just saw next door neighbour in the garden as i was hanging out the washing. Well we 'small talked' and it transpired she was doing her cleaning also....
In a Ghost dress!! I only know its ghost because my sister bought it for her reception outfit when she got married last month so you can imagine this is not a cleaning outfit!!!!

So what do you wear to mop the floors and scrub the bathrooms???

Well, all this talk of cleaning has shamed me into going and cleaning the bathroom... in what I was wearing at the time. Hmm, I relate to an earlier poster - dressing up and cleaning both don't happen very often. Mind you, we're fairly happy!
Now I'll go back to my hole...
