I've had a look on the index but can't find:-

How do I remove shoe scuff marks from white painted doors. I have tried an eraser, I used to have a high density sponge which was great but haven't been able to source one again.

Can anyone help please?

*zippy*

I got a twin pack of the sponges in wilkinsons think they were 99p It took me ages to spot them they are in a pink card wrapper and called erase away.

Have you also tried Cif /cream cleaner ?

Help!!

We have a roller blind in our bathroom which we pull down when showering (need to do this as otherwise window sill gets soaked). The blind now has some water staining (black marks). I have tried scrubbing it with stardrops but does not seem to have moved it.

Any ideas anyone??????

Shell, do you think it could be mildew? Just wondering, because a roller blind if rewound before fully dry would encourage it In any event I'd be tempted to try some lemon juice to "bleach" it out, but maybe not a good idea if it's a dark colour!

Thanks for that, will get some lemons tomorrow!

Hi shell,

This older thread might help too: Our bathroom blind is disgusting!

Hi

I have a recipe which calls for brown lentils. But I have 2 packs of green ones in the cupboard. Can I just use the green ones? Are the green ones brown ones?

(I don't mean red lentils - I know they're different)

thanks in anticipation

I'd use green in place of brown no problem. They are very similar and cook in the same way, they don't turn to mush like red lentils;)
