    Valli I think it would be a bit strange to borrow your cutlery and not invite you... NDN may just assume... Anyway, heat time did you tell the brother you'd be there?

    Hate doing car insurance... have found something slightly cheaper than my current quote BUT it means I'll have to get round to sending proof of my no claims to the new insurer, and my old insurer only goes up to 10 years, whereas the new one seems to go up to about 100... so is it worth it?

    Bit more work done. Freezer nearly back together, so need to bung the stuff that's currently in cold bags back in there and tomorrow I can sort it out properly.

    Mother has called to fuss :p OH has texted and is clearly in a funny mood :( I blame his parents...

    Hi, first of all, apologies for resurrecting an old thread, but I am looking for someone who may be able to help. For about the last 4 weeks or so I have had some kind of soft white stuff forming inside my black bin bags that I have been told is mildew, I emptied the bin 5 days ago and there is not much in there now except a bit of left over chicken curry from Saturday, a bread crust and some tea bags. I really don't know what could be causing it as I only drink tea and dispose of tea bags in the bin, I don't have enough food waste to need a food bin, but i can't get to the bottom of what is causing this. I thought it may have been the damp cleaning cloths my cleaning lady disposes of, but they are not in there now and the white stuff has already started forming, Does anyone have any ideas as my waste habits have always been the same, so I don't know why this is happening now. The bin itself always looks clean once the affected bag has been removed and is often washed out and dry before a new bag is in place. Thanks for any help.
