We have to be very careful when we swash about with cleaning products these days. Certain ones take the enamel off my white goods! Gone is the kneeling down with a tin bucket and a mop to get those floor tiles looking clean and shiny. We’ve moved then to squeegee mops – slabs of cleaning […]
I always thought I was a fairly clean living person. Nowhere near perfect but I don’t think anyone would turn their nose up and refuse to eat in my house. However, the need to keep hands and bodies so much healthier these days has made me question my modus operandi around the home, that’s for […]
We have been subjected to the massive changes in our lives caused by the global pandemic and it’s not getting any easier. Although we’re allowed to start socialising a little more, strict rules are ain place to keep everyone socially distanced for safety. There are many rules for businesses to adhere to as well. As […]
We are expected to be clean and have good habits if we have been brought up properly. Every child should be washing their hands thoroughly after going to the toilet, after playing with messy stuff and having been in the garden and after playing with a pet.

In the late 1960s with the proliferation of massive great secondary schools and technical colleges, there were always a great number of toilet blocks and for some reason, a call of nature could so easily be made to wait for as long as possible, […]
1. Fight cooking smells. Try this to remove the fragrance of the broiled seafood of recently: In a pot, blend 1 glass of water and 3 tablespoons of vinegar, and steam for all moments. Vinegar is not alkaline and smells are not amphoteric, therefore the latter will be neutralized by the former. 2. Handle the […]
I was away on a cruise recently – very lovely it was too. The luxury of having a room steward to clean my washroom and refresh the cabin twice a day was wonderful. I’ve managed to create a little cleaning routine for my own abode but I’d be hard pushed to do 18 cabins with […]
A small family lives near me – the mother is a bright cheerful young woman, usually with a small child firmly hanging on to her right 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 […]
