    I haven't seen it for ages. Either they have stopped making it, or the big supermarkets have dropped it in favour of the "Windolene System Trigger 4 Action" spray which cleans ""Windows. Glass Surfaces. Taps. Windscreens. Worktops. Mirrors. Fridges". Or the "Windolene Glass Wipes".

    I looked high and low for this when we moved house, wanted to put it on the windows (and not wipe off) prevent gawkers when we were decorating.

    OH and I had a memorable windolene argument in asda about this time, him huffing that he had no idea that I was on about, and all they had was blue/green (can't remember colour now) and me snapping that windolene wasn't blue/green in my book but pink and opaque.

    We had to be separated by an old lady who very diplomatically told him that we were both right, I wasn't confused, just looking for the old fashioned version, and he was thinking of the new one, which in her opinion wasn't a patch on the old one.

    Bless her, if they still make it I may have to take the search back up again!

    Bummer! I have not been able to find any in Home Bargains in Durham. Have looked there a few times in recent weeks. How frustrating. Will have to try some of the local mini mart-type places.
