Default Is it worth it?

Oh yes!

For those of you back in the UK putting your application together, sorting out medicals or tieing up your old life and wondering whats ahead of you.

Its worth it.

The only drawback I've experienced is cleaning the barbeque and mowing the lawn - but hey I can live with that.

All the preparation was worth it, but the worry wasn't.

Why clean it? They only rust faster that way. They don't clean the BBQs in public parks and they are the ones to seek out. The scungier the better.

I'm surprised the 'Jims' franchise hasn't got into that yet. We already have Jims mowing, Jims Tree cutting, Jims Pool Cleaning, Jim House cleaning.

How about a Jims BBQ cleaning?

The only drawback I have had is losing my hubbie to barbie cleaning duties. He lovingly cleans it every weekend. LOL though I am beggining to think he is using it as an excuse not to come shopping with me.

I'm not alowed to clean ours, hubby wipes it with newspaper and thinks that good enough. I sneakily get soap and hot water to it every now and again then re-oil it with that spray on oil.
