Cor.. noone ever listens!! Soda crystals are good for nought... ok.. they are fairly ok for cleaning the cooker top.. but not as good as sugar soap...

stardrops and bleach.. cleans everything in here..

They're good for adding to your washing powder.

Interesting evening here. DH is really fed up with studying and is thinking (or has possibly decided) to give up. I managed to stop him putting the books (worth hundreds of quid) in the dustbin, and am trying to get him to keep going til the first set of exams (mid Nov). Good vibes / prayers welcome!!

have done MrT order but forgot to search for any codes and of course you can't go back in and add them, and now all the slots are taken for sat so I think I'll just swallow the extra cost! :eek:

Oh Pigpen I meant to say, The 'liver a la piggers' was gorgeous! The family all enjoyed it except DD2 who is a fussy mare.... (my fault, I fed her bought jars of baby food, instead to making it all myself..... DD1 & DD3 were both fed on home made grub, they eat more or less everything now)
A great success, ta bab!

Actually they're great for soaking your oven racks in the bath. Grease just slides off.
But I will never use them in the DW again:rolleyes:

Do you put bleach and stardrops through yours then? How much do you use?

((giant hugs for michelle)) honey you sound run down again, take it easy, you've done way more than most of us plus the mummy stuff, hope you manage to get some sort of break over the weekend x

rach ((big hugs)) I so know how you feel, strangely the best thing I did was back off, he only did something when I said 'right, you made it clear how you feel, make your choice, waste what you have done so far or get on with it' well in a few more words but they put symbols instead of the words I used on here.....anyway, he got on with it, strangely. If it's getting to him don't let it upset you both. With the Tesco thing can't you add them when you check out again? Or you could ring customer services and say it hasn't come off when you get your delivery but you wanted to use it, choose your words careflly and you won't have to lie sin free blaging :rotfl:

serena pleased to hear that!

soda crystals, great for cleaning paths, I use them for all sorts inc laundry boosting. Dishwasher I use either the magnum stuff from Aldi or just scrub it by hand usually with either disolved soda crystals or some borax then run a hot wash, pipes are rubber stuff on ours so I don't use bleach.

liuhut good luck!

Right, pack ups to do then I think I am finished!

Just put a load of washing in so it's ready to go on the line first thing in the morning.;)
Washing is actually not too bad at the moment.:D

I'm debating on whether to go to bed or kip on the sofa. DH bout of manflu has suddenly worsened this evening:rolleyes: He's gone to bed but I don't think I can cope with another night of him snaffling and snarling all the time. Just hearing it makes me want to heave :mad::rolleyes:

I'm bored, but tired and a bit more bored!

But are they all one colour? More detail needed please Pooh

I have to confess that my soft pegs are not all one colour but I always put them out in pairs of the same colour and I get upset if I run out of them and have to use ordinary ones too. My ordinary ones are all white but I really don't like using them anymore.

It's starting to sound like The Waltons round here now.
