my aforementioned lumpy slate floors in me new (cough) house could really do
with a vigorous mopping by a dedicated mop-nerd, you know!!! reading your
post causes me near-physical pain :-) (i don't like mopping, oh no i
do not... and to add to my woes, i have not a string mop & a string-mop-bucket
yet.)
i was looking at them today in despair. we have swept and swept but i think
it's still not ready for mopping - i would only make MUD.
this house is enough to give a clean-freak a nervous breakdown. :-)
