Scrubs up nicely


Apparently, I'm not only stationery-obsessed, but I'm also a sucker for cleaning products. I have:

Cream cleaner
'Power' cleaner
Bathroom cleaner
Limescale remover
Sink cleaner
Hob cleaner
Oven cleaner
Glass cleaner
Window wipes
Furniture cleaner
Furniture polish
Furniture wipes
Floor cleaner
Floor wipes
And, just so I've got all bases covered, multi-purpose cleaner.

I feel a de-clutter coming on!

the glove brings on mixed feelings of either a sexy lady wearing rubber, or as is more likely the case, the nit nurse from when I was in junior school. Noticed there wasnt any headlice cleaner in the list. Remind me never to get that close. Thanks btw for commenting on my blog about the Mosque, I was feeling very ummy and ahhry about doing it. Dont want to be the cause of friction just because of a typo or something. Anyway always good to pop by your blog, you seem to be posting a lot more of late!

The trouble is adverts for cleaning products always promise you wonderful results and then just don't deliver. I've got cupboards full of sprays, wipes and all of those other miraculous pungent chemical-filled substances that the manufacturers claim will miraculously clean your house and all that is in it with no effort on your part. As soon as I'm told 'just spray on no need to rinse/rub/scrub/tub/blub/hubbub and your sink/shower/floor/child/lover/cat will clean intself magically' then I'm hooked. Can't bring myself to throw away all of the previous deceitful bottles, sprays and cans that have been used once and then discarded because that would be wasteful. So I find myself still scrubbing the shower with a toothbrush to reach all of the parts that are unaccessible by any other means and all of those traitors remain hidden away. Now that's not addiction, that's gullibility.

I wonder if this new bottle of Cillit Bang that I've just bought will deliver the goods??????

(My verification word today is hyadaza. Sounds like a greeting to the leader of the Conservative Party).

Chux - I'm happy to report that we have a nit-free household these days.

I haven't yet succumbed to the lure of Cillit Bang, but I just might after being woken from a Midsomer Murders-induced reverie the other evening to the welcome sound of "Hi! I'm Barry Scott! And I'm back!". Oh, Barry, how we've missed you...

To save you time and hope, chm, Cillit Bang doesn't work. None of them do.
