i'm so shattered when i go on hol as i'm working full time right to the day before i go away and also cleaning like a crazy woman, as well as packing but once i get checked in at the airport i can relax, i wouldn't swop that feeling for the world!!
hope you have a lovely time!

My wifes the same, cleans the house from top to bottom, then on the morning we go away no one can use the loo after she has put her special stuff down.

Now I think its so inconsiderate to us men for you to be rushing round the house,
hoovering and dusting,getting the cases packed and putting the last few things in the washer, while we are trying to watch television.
There is nothing more annoying than a woman with her hoover while we are watching football trying to hoover round our feet.
We know your game.
But the fact is you should involve us more in the packing because our organising abilities would be invaluable.
Its been pointed out before,that we can do several tasks at once.

I too rush around like a mad thing scrubbing floors, cleaning windows etc. etc during the week before we go......must be daft cos we have three sons at home who will undoubtedly mess the place up within the first 24 hours of our departure!

You are in a right mischievous mood today. I notice you are stirring things up on HT as well . :

my wife is exactly the same, everything has to be spotless before we leave.....dont know why she bothers cos we leave a 19 and 22 year old lads behind....they dont exactly keep the claning up whilst we are away

i meant cleaning , not claning

Tony

Us women knew what you meant

Me too. We are all mad but in a nice way. It makes me feel as though I am really going at last.

Lynn every so often I love to throw a spanner in the works.
It keeps people on there toes and makes them think.


Me mischieviouse?

Gene

Me too I always clean and everything spotless before we go away....I would hate to come home to our usual mess. And like has been said beforeit helps fill the time before its time to leave for holiday...

Good post Gene almost fell off the sofa laughing when I read it.

I am exactly the same, I leave everywhere spotless, then come home and think *oh now where did i I put that*

I understand the concepts of cooking and cleaning......just not how they apply to me!
Seriously though, I think the reasoning behind our frantic even manic pre hols cleaning is that on our return from where ever, we want to dump our luggage, flick the switch on the kettle and relax a little while longer before we let reality seep into our lives!
8 weeks and counting!!!! ( Not cleaning yet!)

Regards.

Yes I am a mad woman also, I clean anything that does not stop still, my hubby says why do you bother it will only be dusty again when we come back, but as you all say at least you know you have done it and it gets you in the mood for your hols, I think if I did not do the cleaning before I went I would feel like I had forgot something.

5 weeks today and I will be in sunny Icmeler just finished my shopping for hols now, I am on the count down.

Happy hols to anyone going soon

Another old post dug up.

This one made me laugh. I have already started getting things in order, ready for the mad 1 day clean the house from top to bottom, every corner routine.

When I came back in June, I couldn't find my contract mobile phone for 2 days, I had hidden it so well

I am in the process of my pre holiday frenzie,thiefs don't look in my oven Monday strip all beds,Tuesday clean all rooms,Wednesday Kitchen and bathroom and Thursday bleach down all sinks and toilet,so Norman will have to "p" at neighbours

Diane

PS powder in soap dispencer in washer ready for when I return,just need to put clothes in and away we go !

Hi i am the same clean everything inside out i hide all my bank card etc and takes me ages to think were i have put them

Made me laugh as well, I love cleaning, I know it's quite sad really

Leaving my son and step son on their own this October so I'm expecting to come back to a right mess. Still if they don't get on facebook and invite everyone round for a party I'll be more than happy . Hopefully they wouldn't dare

Well I have all the cleaning done, just sat down nice glass of chilled white wine and waiting patiently for Monday morning at 3.15 when we will be heading for the airport. What a lovely feeling
