    On the pointy end up rule - I had a new one in January, and read the instruction book cover to cover (I just love instruction books!) and they (Bosch) had changed the rule and the instruction book said pointy ends down.

    I suppose safer if you ever had an unfortunate falling-over-onto-an-open-dishwasher incident. I've never noticed a different in cleaning regardless of which way they go in.

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker I've been Money Tipped!
    I use Lidl's cheaper tabs £1.79 for 30 I think (not bought for a while.) I always use half a tablet too, unless there's a lot of cooked on mess. They used to be a Which? best buy, but their website no longer mentions this.


    Ok I was in Lidl today, to buy some more of these tabs BUT they have stopped selling the £1.79 ones and the others which were £2.99 are now £3.99!!!!:mad:
    I was really annoyed at this, it's a stunt you expect from Tesco not Lidl.
    Just thought I'd mention it in case any of you were off to buy some.

    It's only a game
