Have to say I did consider this to teach them a lesson but I wouldn't want to get postie into trouble. I'm just too nice!!! (or stupid!!) xx

I'd go with the latter.. I'd be ringing up to get the postie into trouble.. he is not doing his job properly!!

Ahem... parcel not arrived I'd say... but I am so dishonest.. :money: .. get the claim in.. it won't show as 'delivered' on the track and trace because it's not been signed for!

We had that with a delivery from Mr T, a dvd player. It really didn't arrive so I called them and they sent another to my son at uni. THEN they sent one to me, then the first reappeared after some one signing for it in a different house, then they paid me the money back too.!!??

When I tried to explain and get them to take some back they wouldn't listen to me, they said they had done all they could!! I wanted to give two back but as they wouldn't listen I had two spares to give as pressies and I look really generous.:j

HHC x 3 because - like I said I KNEW I wouldn't be able to complete my bedroom but in my defence I have dusted every book on the little bookcase I have in there, by removing them from shelf and using a paintbrush to flick dust off them - and I have flung quite a few too. Everywhere dusted - just needs a final vacuum and tidy. Brought loads downstairs and have filled sack for charity shop DD clears out her clothes regulary (she gets a lot passed down from her cousin) into MY room - so there's always something to fling.
Brought washing in, sheets and towels, folding as I unpegged.
made DS bed and flung DD's duvet over banister to air.
Labelled jam.
Time for :coffee:

Any expert cleaning tips from you domestic goddesses on how to get mould/mildew marks off a shower curtain?
I have bleach, borax, soda crystals but havent been able to get stardrops yet - will any of these work - have tried soaking in a little bleach but still some marks there.:rolleyes:
TF xx

Best thing I've ever found for this is... Dettol Mould and Mildew Remover :T

Fantastic for doing what it says on the bottle! But probably not very OS... but since you've tried all the OS ways :A , give yourself a break and try it!!! :rotfl:
