''Tidy and clean up the day before!! Seriously, the place was minging. I'm sure it created a poor impression for the visitors. The area where people were to eat and make drinks was barely fit for purpose. Also the toilets were gross. Suggest a good clean and tidy up the night before. Mike.'' | ''Tidy and clean up the day before!! Seriously, the place was minging. I'm sure it created a poor impression for the visitors.

:More generally, as regards the toilets (and to some extent the kitchen area) I really think it might be worth hiring cleaners for a couple of hours every week to do this. I appreciate we need to clean up after ourselves and I do when I'm there, but are people really going to volunteer to clean the toilets? Presumably other tenants have cleaners and I don't think this will cost very much.

:Kitchen area was a serious problem - Clare had to do some food prep on the sofas and there was very little space to lay stuff out. The wiring for the dishwasher is pretty crazy. Fortunately there are already plans to build a better kitchen area but we should think about a) do this before holding another workshop and b) think of the counter as a food serving area as well as food prep.

:I did actually attempt to clean the toilets before we started. Not much improvement, I admit, but they were worse previously! I should have mopped the floors and the pipework, but the biggest problem is the seats - I only had bleach and a loo brush to clean them with. Cleaning the seat in the south toilet just caused more MDF to crumble away. Also need towel hooks by the sinks and a replacement for the toilet roll holder in the north cubicle.
