    Hi

    Just a quickie. We have just fitted a new bathroom suite and now have a posh bath. I don't want to use any harsh chemicals on it but it's getting a bit grubby. Any ideas for a gentle cleaner I could try?

    Thanks

    apart from the supermarket comparesion site for yuor whole shop is there such a website that only tells you what offers the supermarkets have at the mo..
    like they will say what bogof's all the suermarkets etc...
    instead of you search each supermarket website or product..

    As long as there isn't any mould on it (which I tend to find on mine fairly quickly) then I don't see why not! :D

    Hiya,

    If anyone out there has sultanas in the cupboard, and digital scales, I'd be really grateful to know the weight in grams of a heaped tablespoon of sultanas!

    Huge thanks if anyone can be bothered to help me out with this...

    20g, give or take.

    For a recipe I'd probably say 25g - isn't that the rough equivalent to some fraction of an ounce?

    Although sultanas don't have a very steep angle of inclination - ie they don't tend to heap very high. At least that's my observation ... from just now ...

    Now, spill the sultanas, why are you asking?

    I've got a tub of smartprice plain yoghurt in my fridge, still sealed but with a BB date of 6th March on it - will it be okay or should I throw it out?

    I tried to make scones last night and decided (for the third time) I hate my wooden rolling pin.

    Any ideas what's the best one to get? Mum had a glass one - is that gonna be better than silicone or anything? :confused:

    Hi Savvy_sue, multiple thankings for going to that trouble for me!

    It's cos since I've gone all old-style and grocery challengy, OH is concerned we're not getting our 5 a day. I've been successfully making cinnamon bread with sultanas, but was trying to calculate how many slices would make a 'portion' of our 5 a day. The weight was really important, cos I make 6 loaves at a time, and the thought of me endlessly spooning out of 5 packets of sultanas was somewhat depressing!

    Bet you wish you hadn't asked now;)
