Ever wondered how to fit the ironing into an already overcrowded
schedule? Or needed advice on how to deal with house guests whose
political opinions you abhor?In this charming guide, Her Ladyship
dons the mantle of a modern Mrs Beeton to provide the answers to
these pressing domestic questions, and many more. In her trademark
lightly humorous but always elegant style, she discusses important
issues such as day-to-day housekeeping and routines (exactly how
clean do you need to keep your house?), dealing effectively but
graciously with 'staff' (cleaners, au pairs, gardeners), how to
avoid committing social faux pas when entertaining, and useful
ideas for getting the children to help with the housework.The book
is not aimed solely at people who live in large country houses,
like Her Ladyship, but at anyone who feels in need of a bit of
gentle guidance on running a home properly, whatever its size or
type, while still coping with the demands of work, childcare and
all the other perils of modern life.
