wish me luck

I've got to go and clear the car out as it's a health hazard. Don't remember when I last did it. Am ashamed.
The children can barely climb in through the mountain of rubbish.

Heaven knows what I might find..... off to look for some marigolds (not the flowers). Don't want to take any chances

[sharonr]

Hopefully somebody has dropped money in there.

[squashysu]

may the force be with you!!!! lol!!! i was like this the other day x

[allotmentlady]

lol same ere, good luck did mine the other day found a brand new toothpaste....some seeds, my sons missing cap....

[janeyo]

No money unfortunately.

I did however find a pot of jelly. No idea where that came from. I don't buy pots of jelly, I make it and put it in my own little pots for lunch boxes.

I also found lots of childrens sweet wrappers. Again strange as I don't let them eat in the car in case they choke (paranoia)

One of the cats was sitting on the bonnet watching me through the glass. When I was cleaning the windscreen inside he started chasing my hand about and jumping on the window, daft creature!

Now I just need to persuade OH to clean the outside and it will look ok again for another however many years.....

[Gwen11ian]

Good on you for going out and getting it done!

[janeyo]

I know I am a star... cos I really wanted to be digging or sowing seeds and I decided the car really couldn't wait another day!

I was in my OH car last week - the first time for ages. He has a lovely car but you could have planted spuds in the footwell!

[janeyo]

If I go in OH's car I have to drive - he terrifies me. He says he quite likes being chuaffered whenever we go out lol

[vicky]

Enjoy your lovely clean car for the next day or so till the children wreck it again! I did mine last week, found things from our summer holiday....

[janeyo]

Am SO glad there are others like me and not everyone drives round in a 'showroom' car!

[willowstar]

likewise I am reassured that there are others like me. I have the filthiest car ever and the inside just never gets a look in. People in my office clean their cars by hand every week!?!?!?

[Nicos]

My poor car always looks like a shed on wheels poor thing!!- and it gets absolutely filthy on the muddy rural roads over here!

When I went to my OH flat for the first time in 2001 when e began dating I was shocked at the state of it - what a bloody mess.

I put my Project Manager head on a threw out over 40 black bags of single guy junk. I started in the spare bedroom where his kids stayed at the weekend and found chicken nuggets in the drawers underneath the bed. I swear it still cracks me up when I think about it. He sold that place years ago and we now live a clean and tidy clutter free life in a lovely home devoid of McNuggets!
