I found stardrops today in wilkinsons for 58p! Bargain!

So I came straight home and used it, it got loads of water marks out of our bath!

My Hubby thinks I've lost the plot! I made my first chicken stock from our roast chicken yesterday,I have never done this in 9yrs of being married! Also we bought some reduced crusty bread yesterday, but it went hard over night, so I wouldn't let him throw it out I said I'll make bread crumbs to freeze, he called me a DFW nerd!:rolleyes:

Cheek:rotfl:

So what I want to know now is what is the microfibre cloth I keep seeing in posts and where do I get one?

Also I bought breadmaker today so will give that a try next (morphy richards £35) any suggestions would be great but I do know that there is a breadmaker thread to look at.:T

    Microfibre cloths are available at loads of places, Savers, Tescos, Asda, Wilkinsons etc etc. Just look for "microfibre" on the packaging. They're really good!!

    Hello Newleafer, as the wise Churchmouse said all the above. And i got mine
    in Poundstretchers, they were a bit more expensive but the time and money that ive saved is more than worth it. You'll be well pleased with them.

    Yep they're brill
    Tescos do their own make - plain white 89p for 3
    but I also have some that came in a 4 pack (for £4) from poundstretchers that have different finishes - the yellow one for glass is fantastic.
    OH also thought I was losing the plot when I started on the chicken stock but he's got used to it now. I think he thinks I had some kind of hormone treatment that turned me into a proper housewife!:rotfl:

    Yes Microfibre cloths are brilliant, you'll end up buying loads. :D

    Just a word of warning though, if you use fabric softener then don't when your washing these, it kills the cloths :D

    I have the MR bread machine, it is excellent, i would start with the basic white (or wholemeal) to get you used to measuring out all the ingredients, then you can start experimenting!!!!! Good luck (and well done, we love our stardrops and microfibre clothes here too!!!!)

    I can't find Stardrops anywhere here in Walthamstow!
    The ability of skinny old ladies to carry huge loads is phenomenal. An ant can carry one hundred times its own weight, but there is no known limit to the lifting power of the average tiny eighty-year-old Spanish peasant grandmother.

    I get my Stardrops from Wilkinsons. They also sell them in my nearest branch of Morrisons.
