After the success of the Roomba, I went mad and ordered a Domotec steam mop - it's wonderful for doing the kitchen floors, but today I had a proper "go" with it. It was just good to get away from computers and other assorted stress.
I did the patio doors and the kitchen windows - there's a knack to use it on glass, but I think I've got it now. I did the cooker which, if I'm honest, I must confess to have been disgusting. It isn't now. I mopped down the cupboard doors, and the fridge/freezer, and the dishwasher. Then I came to my senses, and went and sat down with a cup of tea.
I *boiled* the cloths I'd been using. In a pan, on the hob.
Where will it all end?
Bed now - my shoulders ache.

But boiling cloths? Not me guv! I still remember Grandma boiling Grandad's horrible hankies for hours on top of the gas hob! Yeuch!
I'm afraid, that un-green as it is, I wash all such things together with bathroom mats in a 60C wash in the washing machine. But don't *ever* put yellow dusters in with them!
