    This might sound like a daft question but where do I put the vinegar? In the drawer? In the drum? :confused: sorry, you can tell I'm new to this :)

    Hi Tink

    I would use it on windows if I didn't have a weird cloth, I don't know if it's microfibre or not as it came with the microfibre cloths but it's for windows. All you have to do is spray a small amount of water onto the glass/mirror, wipe with the cloth and hey presto, clean windows/mirrors. I leave one in the bathroom so that whenever someone has a bath they can clean the mirror as it steams up and saves me doing it with spray bottle :) hehe

    Thank you Greenbee for that link yesterday for jointing a chicken. Just did it and i'm very impressed with how easy it was! Now i have a big pot of stock going with the carcass in it too:D

    Will go do some flying in a minute:p

    I found that too. It is much cheaper. I tend to put the carcass in the AGA for 20 minutes then pick the bits of meat off for the mogs.

    Been to physio.

    Need to test DS1 on geography again and then hope to finish the bedroom before I go out.
