I would hav liked more follow up on all th families. I have learnt a couple of things though. 1) i' ve always cut open hand creams etc but never thought tocut hem 2/3 down to make lid
2) i have sliced and frozen left over lemons when i needed 1 and had to buy a net
And something i learned today from another source - add a slosh of white vinegar to water to boil j cloths in. Wondering i i can use brown vinegar next time?MrsSD declutter medals 2023 🏅🏅🏅⭐⭐ 2025

I suppose that last programme was very mse in its way. They saved money by rehashing bits from previous programmes with a tiny bit of new footage revisiting a couple of families. A bit like using up leftovers really.:rotfl:0

Does anyone know the name of the hostel featured in episode 4?0

Hartington Hall in Derbyshire. They got the idea for that feature from my blog, I stayed there in December. It is fabulous, like a five star hotel, at hostel prices. If you are not a member you need to add on £3 per person per night. I can see beds available in dormitories for £15 at the moment, but you may wish to book a private room. There is fabulous walking in the area, I love it there.

What it may grow to in time, I know not what.

I made the polish that was featured on one of the episodes, omg, its gorgeous. It was
1 tbsp lemon
3 tbsp olive oil (i used vegetable oil)
Essential oil (i used lemon)
Mix together and dip your duster in. It really brings up wood to a lovely shine, and smells lovely.0 -

I buy mine by the gallon from my local branch of Wing Yip (4 x 5l bottles for £5). You could try any Asian supermarket or cash and carry."Be the type of woman that when you get out of bed in the morning, the devil says 'Oh crap. She's up.'
