I have used the recipe on this thread from MSE's christmas forum. Thanks to ccastley for posting.

I haven't tasted it yet....... but it smells great.

That looks like the same one - it was in Good Housekeeping.

I found half a bottle of voddie in the back of the sideboard that must be at least 15 years old. I don't drink alcohol now, and OH doesn't drink spirits, so I was wondering whether it could be used for cleaning anything - I know gin can.

Any suggestions please folks?

Use it to clean your teeth. Rinse, gargle, swallow. Lovely clean teeth and a nice warm glow.

It is supposed to be good for cleaning jewellery but not porous stones like opals or pearls.

Also good as a skin tonic - especially for oily skin.

I know some of you on here make your own beer/wine/lager etc can anyone give me a little advice. I have started making strawberry vodka tonight (red skittles) already the gunge layer is forming. On the blog I have taken the idea from says about using coffee filters to remove the gunge, then further down the page it mentioned that a single sheet of kitchen roll will be just as good?
Can anyone suggest a good easy way to do this?
I have pics so far of what I have done, and plan to take more throughout the 5 day ish whilst the skittles dissolve?
