Posh

The cleaners came today, which is always nice.  We tidy the house beforehand so they don't think we're too filthy and idle, but they then do all the proper cleaning.  The floors are washed, the windowsills are dusted, the stairs are vacuumed.  Marvellous.

I went into the bathroom after they left and they'd folded the toilet paper end into a neat triangle.  It was like being at a hotel.

How utterly fabulous. I would so love to have cleaners except for the fact that I'd have to pay them and that I don't work so, strictly, have all the time in the world to keep my house clean but, frankly, can't be arsed. I have MUCH more important things to do, like, well, not cleaning. Plus what would I have at the end of my life other than a clean house?

My first husband's aunt used to clean her house every Wednesday because the maid came on Thursdays... I never could quite understand it.

Did you fold it back again when you were finished? I would... just to freak people out.

I think I'll start and see how long it takes before my daughter says anything.

We at the Golightly mansion are lucky enough to have two toilets so I don't even have to experience Mr Golightly's bathroom, which he is solely responsible for cleaning. I would never bother with a pointy end on my TP, isn't that what your finger is for? Eoooooooooooooowweeeeee...

Just remember you are NOT in a hotel, so when you steal the towels and the toiletries you are only hurting yourself.

I was toying with the idea of getting a cleaner for my flat, but when the prospective home help came to price the job we realised that it wasn't possible to have two people in here and get anything done. So I decided to do the job myself....

I would probably be the same if I had cleaners. Quickly run around tidying up and hiding all the midget porn.

I am worried by the fastidiousness of someone who would fold their loo rolls into a triangle at the end. i shudder to think what they do to their jobbies before they flush...!
