Strong Wholemeal Flour

When we got it home, I looked at the small print on the side of the packet, and the fibre content is only 7%. Most other brands are around 11% or 12%. Does this mean that M&S are processing the flour to remove some of…

Cleaning leather sofa, clean and feed spray
My sofas are a few years old. We have no pets, just the two of us and we've got several sofas made of real leather. I was using a spray, 750ml bottle but it seems it's not around anymore. I last bought the item 18/24 months ago. It's Stardrops, leather clean and feed. It left the sofas with a slightly dull finish as they…

My washing machine started beeping!
Recently my Indesit washing machine has started emitting beeps throughout its normal programme. It's usually a matter of three short beeps but can be more. Does anyone know what this means? The manual went awol years ago and I haven't a clue.

Removing odour from storage barrel
I've bought a second hand plastic barrel to keep a bulk order of flour in. The barrel came clean but with a residual odour of whatever it held in its first use (smells like lime pickle to me). So far I've tried airing the barrel, scrubbing with hot water and washing up liquid, bicarbonate of soda dry left overnight, then…

Good morning all from Mehefinland, Well as might imagine, I can't sleep. So many things zooming around in my head. Yesterday's visit to the Undertaker was relatively painless and DS and I got much of it sorted.
