How clean is your house?"Part of my kitchen floor are thick with dust, grease, part of a broken mug, a few mummified oven-chips, a desiccated used teabag and a couple of pieces of cutlery", says Sandettie Light Vessel Automatic. To most people, that's filth. To some of us, that's dinner. Tell us about squalid homes or obsessive cleaners.

This is a bit of a roast,I've noticed that me and Mrs SLVA tackle cleaning up in different ways. She gets out a load of cleaning stuff, then starts polishing the windows, then polishes loads of other surfaces, gets the hoover out and so on.
When I do it, I get a box and put everything in it that doesn't belong in that room, then take it out and leave it elsewhere. Then I tidy up what stays in the room, plump the settee up, sweep the wooden floor and the room is presentable in maybe 5 mins when she would still be faffing about with the Mr Sheen. I then go put away the stuff in the box and then get down to the polishing, or more usually move onto the kitchen. Wash up and put the pots away, give the hob a quick going over and wipe down the worksurfaces. Then bathroom etc.
I reckon I can get the full house presentable within 90 mins tops. In fact, I'm off to give it a go.

Getting the house presentable is one thingBut she's the one that will then polish and clean stuff properly.
Besides, a bit of a tidy and a hoover makes her extremely grateful if you know what I mean.
