Smile Sunny weather for cleaning

Thank goodness for the the sunny weather - it has made drying things so quick.

I did 5 loads of washing yesterday - turned off washing machine last night and drained it. Hubby put in bracket at top - very important for when you move a washing machine (thanks to whoever it was in the forum that reminded me a while back about doing it). I drained and cleaned dishwasher yesterday as well.

I've been scrubbing and disinfecting our shoes. I read somewhere - I think it was on AQIS site that a mixture of 50% vinegar and 50% water was adequate. So that is what I'm using. I don't fancy my stuff smelling like Jeyes Fluid :scared:

Attached pictures of washing machine and shoe washing process - that is only half our shoes!

Must admit I didn't do either of the above! My washer now sounds like a bag of spanners! You're doing a great job.
Keep up the good work and good luck!
Maybe see you soon!
