Everyone seems to have one cleaning trick that makes life easier. What's your favorite tip or hack that actually works and saves time?

Not owning an iron.
Smooth and fold when getting off the line. Put shirts on a hanger and hang straight not the line.
My lovely neighbour showed me how to do this many years ago.

Meet friends for coffee/lunch/afternoon tea………if I’m not there to make a mess it won’t get any worse will it?

Seriously though, what's the best thing with which to clean a stainless steel sink?

Bicarbonate of soda works well loopyloo.
