Many years before I moved into my one-bed haven, I was in a houseshare with three boys. Lovely people, but our views on cleanliness… let’s just say they differed, like Trump and Harris.
The bathroom sink was freckled with their beard trimmings (sometimes landing on toothbrushes), they littered the living room with dirty plates for days on end, and their approach to cleaning up kitchen floor spills was to simply let them evaporate.
