Morning all.

Back to a full house clean I think, before Christmas and New Year, to set us up well for the new start and resolutions. How lovely to not have "get house sorted and clean" on the list!

As always I start with my kitchen workbench, where my canisters are.

Fill the sink to the top, with bleachy water (check if your sink isn't stainless steel that you can use bleach)

Clear the bench, and wipe over with bleachy water, leaving the water to sit on any stained bits. Wipe over in about 1/2 an hour, when it is clean.

Empty the canisters into some bowls, and wash cannister (tea, coffee, sugar). Wipe down the kettle, well, and teapot, tray etc.

Make sure the cannisters are very dry before you refill them.

Wash down the draining board with the water, before you pull the plug, and polish up with a dry, old t towel.

Hmmm

Stop nit picking!

This is to give you something easy, that looks good, and is encouraging. Something you see on the numerous times you have a cup of tea! Wink

That's the trouble with housework - you just get everwhere looking nice and clean and tidy, and then someone comes along and makes it messy again. Sigh . . .

it's always just when you have washed the floor that the dog comes in with wet paws or the cat walks across the work surface just after you have used that antibacteriological spray stuff
