Your tried and tested cleaning tips

To get the last bit out of shampoo, conditioner, ketchup, mayonnaise, well anything like that, make are the lid is on securely, ( very important )then hold it upside down and spin it round (sort of circular motion with your wrist!)

You might be surprised how much you can get out of it!

WD40 on any stainless steel surface: hob, taps, microwave etc. Quick light spray, wipe off, all grease is gone. One can will last years.

A dash of ordinary vinegar on a piece of kitchen roll cleans windows, mirrors and shower screens without smears.

Kittye I buy mine at Sainsbury's must be available in other supermarkets. Costs around £1. It's a tub of a pink, slightly abrasive cream cleaner that is good to clean many things. Google it, you'll find out!

Thank you Charleygirl.

Use 1 part fabric conditioner to 5 parts water in a spray bottle to freshen upholstery etc.

A vinegar water spray 50/50 is the only cleaner you will need for glass.

Bleach is available in tablet form in most supermarkets, two tablets on a hot wash with all your cleaning rags, cleans the machine and your cloths.

Don't bother to dust higher than your tallest visitor -

Denture cleaning tablets down the toilet once a week for an overnight soak.

Love your reasoning BeeWitch ???

Talking of ironing curtains, I wash them and hang them damp. If they don't dry crease-free I steam them with the steam iron, held vertical. The idea of drying them on the line and then bringing them in and hanging them again is just too much!
