Right - I have scrubbed the hob after removing the water that was soaking on it last night and I can honestly say that my hob hasnt looked so clean ever! Apart from when it was new of course. So, thumbs up for the soak in bio washing powder. It has however, taken the best part of an hour. Those little splashes that dont seem so important, suddenly take on monstrous proportions when you have allowed them to be baked and rebaked and rebaked for weeks without wiping them up

not like me to be giving fabulous advice you know:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
