...it's sitting there looking at me. :evil:

I've done all my other jobs.

It's still sitting there looking at me. :evil:

I've had 3 coffee breaks.

It's still sitting there looking at me. :evil:

I've picked out 12 photos to make up the Vistaprint calendar for mum and dad to try and eke the time out.

It's still sitting there looking at me. :evil:

Don's gone out and it's usually him that takes pity on my hatred of this job and does it for me.

It's still sitting there looking at me. :evil:

I've even cleaned the fridge to delay the inevitable.

It's still sitting there looking at me.

Short of cutting the flex in half I just have to face facts. :evil:

I need to hoover. :lol: :lol: :lol:

I don't mind most things h-worky..but just can't stand hoovering. :x

I do believe vacuum cleaners and I lived a previous life together where all was not well on planet Alison. During my life I've broken countless hoovers..including one that was brand new, just out its box but I lifted it up by the wrong handles and it tumbled down 16 tiled stairs and lay in a smashed heap at the bottom! :o :o

Even the one we have now is a git as the cord keeps coiling round my legs!

>>>Off to do upstairs...... :roll: :x

I know how you feel Ali - but imagine how pleased you will be when it's all done :D I speak as someone who grasped that particular nettle this morning - Mr. Osc has done it quite a lot recently, sometimes even without being asked :o but he was busy doing lots of cooking for the freezer so I decided to step up. Now when I hoover I move furniture and do the edges (someone else doesn't ;) ) and I'm now exhausted, sitting with a cuppa before hitting the shower. Incidentally I would never again buy a Henry - terrific suction but flipping awkward and heavy to move around.

I don't mind vacuuming all that much either. Because of the cat hair, I really should vacuum every day but I don't (esp during the week); so when I do it really makes such a difference.
I think my least favourite HW chore is washing dishes / cleaning a kitchen after cooking
