Question for all you experienced flyers:- How can I remove black mouldy bits from inbetween tiles, & on the seal stuff in the bathroom without damaging it & what product(s) are best to use? TIA!
dunno if this has been answered - I use neat, thick bleach on a toothbrush on the tile grout - and shall be trying the same on the silicone seal...Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016

Not only do I remember them, I regularly convert prices back: "Whaaaatttttt????? That's fourteen and ten! I'm not paying that sort of price!!!!!" :rotfl:
I do that! as in 'you'd better eat that it cost ten bob...'
chocolate's ever so expensive in shillings;)
I have already made an impact on the dining room (work clutter) and also have another new pair of curtains (these are for DS's room and a 'thing' to go across the foot of my bed (like a sort of throw just across the foot of the bed if that makes sense) and STILL some more curtain. It was worth paying an expert seamstress to do the sewing - I would have hyperventilated hacking the curtains down. And I still have some fabric left - I might end up with cushions on my bed, too! (My sister gave me, last year, a huge pair of very expensive John Lewis lined curtains which weighed a ton - eventually I got them to my sewing lady - I have had two pairs of curtains from them, for my two biggest bedroom windows.)
Might go and hang DS's new curtains...(right now, a tiny frog - if left it will grow and grow...)
DD's in the smoke on a theatre trip - which reminds me - not seen Dippypud lately
ETA Poohboear - thought mot corsa was Italian or something at first :rotfl:
