Muscling in on the cleaning

 
Mr Muscle Cleening product cleaner of the year

We can all be a bit rubbish with helping out with the cleaning sometimes, but it’s nice to know that some blokes are a bit more pro-active with the mop and bucket.

The makers of Mr Muscle® cleaning products recently launched a competition to find Britains real-life cleaning heroes, and the winner was Ben Polhill, 37, a Sport and Physical Activity Development Officer from Chichester, West Sussex. Apparently he’s a cleaning champion to wife Becky, a primary school teacher.

Becky says, “We have nine-month-old twin girls – imagine dealing with that as well as trying to keep the house clean! It’s been crazy for both of us learning how to be parents, but Ben’s been an absolute dream with helping out – he happily does the cleaning so I can get a few minutes of quality time to myself. Still, I’m not surprised – Ben has always helped to keep our home impeccable. We’re lucky girls to have him in our lives.”

Ben says, “I can’t believe that Becky nominated me for this competition – and that I won! I do my fair share of cleaning in the house, but she’s the real hero. She looks after me and the children and I’m really glad that I’m going to be able to take them on a lovely holiday in 2009 thanks to the prize of holiday gift vouchers from Thomas Cook. As you can imagine, having twins fills our house with all sorts of clutter and mess. However, I make sure I go round the house regularly with a bottle of Mr Muscle® cleaner – if you put in a bit of effort, it’s easy to be clean.”

The real Mr Muscle® says “Ben is a real hero – not only does he help fight the good fight against grease and grime, but he’s always there to spend time with his family. My mission is to help cleaning champs like Ben and Becky get the tough jobs done even more quickly.”

As an extra incentive to do a bit more around the house, we’re also offering you the chance to win a years supply (or 6 months if you’re particularly clean) of Mr Muscle cleaning products. Check out the competition here!
