A small tip

My parents went away for the weekend, and as it is customary to do I had a go at tidying on Monday morning, so it was all nice when they got back home. I am not a domestic goddess. I'm not at all tidy, and I find cleaning really rather boring.

However I gave it a go, I cleaned the kitchen first. I wiped the sides, emptied the dishwasher, filled the dishwasher, and went to put the dishwasher on. I searched through the cupboard for those all important dishwasher tablets, but couldn't find any. So in my wisdom, I saw the washing up liquid on the side, and figured that that did the same thing. Squirted a load in there and went about my business. On to the living room, getting the Hoover out and running around the living room sucking up everything around, and stuff and stuff. Then I waltz into the kitchen, Hoover in tow, and it was like an explosion of foam......all over the nice new wooden floor.

Dishwashers and washing up liquid just don't mix...don't try it, the outcome will be bleak!!
