Womens linen blend black work trousers
Hello During the summer for work I wear black linen mix or blend trousers, as they do not crease as much as pure linen ones and are very cool to wear. I can't find any this year, despite numerous hunting and google searching. The only ones I can find are wide leg, which look silly as I'm only 5"2 or the ones which stop at…

USA to UK Postal Box/Service for $20 item
Over 10 years ago I ordered some Adobe software from the USA using a US-UK postbox service from Parcel2Go, back in the good old days when you got $1.7 to the £. Think it cost about £20 per year to have a Florida PO Box. (They no longer offer this) There is an item on Amazon.com that they sell which isn't shippable to the…

Shark Lift-Away/Vax Air Reach or similar
I need a new vacuum that can cope with hard floors and stairs which is also pet-hair suitable. I was initially looking at the Dyson V6 Total Clean but the small battery life between charges is not practical so have started looking at the convertible corded uprights.

Ideas to decorate a flatpack cupboard
I've rearranged my study and taken a cupboard out of it - ordinary flatpack, pale wood veneer with 3 shelves. I removed 2 of the shelves and part of the backing and it's now become a TV cupboard (I love being able to shut the TV away) with recorder, etc. underneath. However, it's a boring piece of furniture and I'd like to…

Merino wool clothing companies- ethical but reasonably priced?
My partner wants this for his birthday. He doesn't want pure merino and would prefer maybe 20-30%. Which actually makes things more awkward! I'll only buy from companies that use non-mulesed merino. I tend to use Icebreaker for this stuff but they don't have what I'm looking for this time. Could anyone recommend any other…

Carpet
My mum wants to buy a new carpet for her hall and living room. She went to Carpetright and was given a quote. I don't know why, but I find that shop a bit 'odd'. There's ALWAYS a sale on and the underlay was more expensive than the carpet!! Any other chains that people can suggest please? Or stores in London. Thanks.

Side sleeper: Premier Inn Hypnos or JohnRyan Origins 1500 Mattress

Price Monitoring Alert Service?
I'm in the market for a new Samsung S3 tablet, but they're very new and very expensive at the moment so I think I'm going to wait until there's a bit of a price drop. Does anyone know of any free websites or apps that allow you to monitor prices for individual products and that will automatically alert you if the price…

Where to find 160cm wide Ikea mattresses?
I bought a king size 16-cm wide Ikea bed in 2008 (+ 160cm king size mattress). I need to replace the mattress now but it looks like Ikea only does 150cm mattress nowadays. Brillant. Any idea where I can still find the old 160cm Ikea mattresses (I mean brand new but the old model)?
