Sorry Triker i couldnt think of anything - i thought some of the others would have jumped in - what about the bleach you can use on clothes - is it called ACE? or vanish?

No probs hun, I tried the oxygen stuff and some whitening stuff, it has faded but it still there....its on hubby's work shirts and I haven't told him yet....:o

Evening all, I am in again this week too please. Really want to invite Nan over for Sunday lunch in a few weeks so will be concentrating on the tip that is also known as a dining room this week! As ever working, kids, studying and then will spend the last few hours of the day flying. I may not post every day but I do keep up with the thread!

Toots, thanks for the stars, hope your throat is feeling better - I will join in with the ironing challenge please - I will even post a picture of the ironing mound soon!

Sexy - hope all goes well on Friday, I echo what others have said about the bullying it doesnt seem fair. x

Quillion - that poem was lovely thank you for sharing.

As ever thanks to Pigpen, Toots and Soappie and thinking of those that have lost loved ones last week x x x x

Finish setting up calendar and diary
Phone Polar for missing trim and compare price with local garage
Decide on car tyre deals

I'll update and post new lists in the evenings this week - won't have time to keep up with the thread, just read last page each time I'm on. Have a good week, everyone.

Good night all.

We needed 4 tyres on our second car and they came in at 50.00 +vat each !! DH went to Halfords for something else and ended up buying alloys and tyres for 249 so in theory we got a set of alloys for less than 50.00. Only worked out better cause we needed 4 .

Well I couldn't get the mould spots out of the washing, I did ask earlier but no-one offered any suggestions....I used a 'whitening' product that is supposed to get rid of stains but it hasn't. Dunno what to do, may have to bin all the washing.

I'm sure there's a special mould stain remover - one of the stain devils? Or you could try google and see what comes up. It's the kind of thing I'd have asked my mum... Hope you can sort it.

In case any of you are thinking of buying panto tickets I just found this thread where you can get a child ticket free with each adult ticket - quite a saving!
