@savingsusie I forgot how sniffy I was about the natural cleaners! Funnily enough I do use vinegar and bicarb; I baulk at the (relatively expensive) lemon juice though.

I think our local W.I. is starting up an evening group; if so, I’ll be first in line!

a couple of things –
bet you’ve never used lemon/vinegar/bicarbsoda for cleaning or you would know just how brilliant it is!!!

- when I lived in a Northants village many years ago – there were two W.I. groups – one daytime and one evening so everyone could go – and did!!
The W.I. should be encouraged to form more evening groups – it’s a wonderful organisation and pressure group.

Heh, the WI always makes me think of that movie, Calendar Girls. If you haven’t seen it, watch it. It’s great.
