Soda Crystals are available in Asda with the laundry stuff or with the multi-purpose cleaners.
Stardrops I get in Asda (multi-surface cleaners, in mine its on the bottom shelf) or Home & Bargain, Home & Bargain also sell other Stardrops like cleaners

Morning all.
Unfortunately it's shopping for me to start the day, when I drag DP out of bed. Wish I'd realised sooner as I'd have ordered it online to save me money.
Cleaning is mainly clearing here, need a serious declutter today, I might even have a few bits for ebay as someone said try there for motox boots for my son I seen how much they go for so might pop his outgrown ones on there!
Have added those who have requested so far to Facebook, feel free to natter/post images on there. Will start a thread for 'week 12th january natter' in discussion.One day I might be more organised...........

I've bookmarked a whole load of openlearn courses from the OU, and I'm going to make sure I do at least an hour a day. My brain is going to mush being stuck at home with a toddler :eek: I'm also going to go through my 'ufos' and finish them off (Craftyscholar will understand what I'm on about I'm sure)
