I have an almost still brand new kitchen. It was very exciting whilst the old one was ripped out and the new took form over one week. Obviously once it was handed over to my tender care, I made every effort to keep it as spotless and pristine as physically possible. I had one handicap […]
My very best cleaning tip is to shake out all the cushions and loose hangings, beadspreads, towels etc. first to get rid of the dust and hairs. Once those are clear of debris, pop any moveable and liftable furniture up onto a table or put outside. I’m thinking here of dining chairs and pouffes. Just […]
After the lovely relaxed months during summer, there is probably an inclination to leave some of the less regular cleaning chores ‘for a rainy day’. There is always that niggling feeling that spending too much time on cleaning up and tidying around the place, somehow it is a shame that the good weather is not […]
A small family lives near me – the mum is a bright cheerful young woman, usually with one child firmly attached to her right hip and the other child hurtling around on a new on trend scooter. The mum works unsocial part time hours, evening and weekend shifts some drive away. The dad of the […]

In a lifetime ago I worked for a small company out in the sticks – a funny little industrial unit way out of town a few miles off the nearest bypass. It was idyllic though, we were surrounded by nature, birds, squirrels, farmland. For those of us who were not in a tearing hurry to […]
There is a tiny office near me where a relative runs a web based business – all kinds of activities online and so her business is all contained within the one room – no goods arriving or going out, no packages to worry about and no garbage beyond the usual lunch packets and chocolate wrappers, […]
I used to share a bedroom with a sister who was always much tidier than me. It would be a battle ground and after a while, her irritation with my less tidy ways would boil over and a clear demarkation line would appear, beyond which I dare not let anything of mine stray – particularly […]
