Don't breath the cleaning products. Not only do I have a huge headache but it gave me a nosebleed.

Why oh why do I bother to clean at all? :blush: :argh:

There are all natural cleaning products that won't do that you know.

Thats why most of them have a warning saying 'Use in a well ventilated area' or something similar!

I find the worst cleaning product of them all is "Wilkinson's Limescale Remover" - that absolutely stings your nose while using it.

As long as you don't get too close to it, the smell from Cillit Bang isn't that bad (yes, even though it has those annoying "My Name's Barry Scott" ads) :p

No I am not a cleaner, I was just cleaning up my place today...it really needed it.

Yes I did have the bathroom fan going, but it can only move so much air in a given time.

Hey, it was my mistake and I only killed a few million brain cells in the process.

Fart fans are considered a luxury in the UK? Whats up with that? maybe thats where they get the stiff upper lip thing.

When cleaning the bathroom, open the window! When cleaning the bathroom, don't mix chemicals and don't use more than you need.

WTF?

Fans aren't a luxury, they're just not that common; except for extractor fans in bathrooms (maybe that's what was meant?). We usually only have about 20 days a year that are hot enough to need fans or air conditioning.
