Any chance of removing Tippex from black trousers? No... thought not.

Hi liney,

I think some people have had success with white spirit. Have a look at this thread:

Removing Tippex

I've just spent ages looking for the slow cooker recipe index, I thought I'd found it but none of the links will work :rolleyes: Please can someone send it to me please.
Much appreciated

Hi Dotmatic,

It's here.

If you're looking for it again, look towards the top of the main Old Style page where there's a bar called the Old Style (Thrifty) Resource bar. Just below that, click on Indexed Collections and you'll see The Complete Slow Cooker Collection there.

When this happened to me and I had unsuccessfully explored all possibilities for removing it I coloured over it with black biro. Just a thought.

Does anyone know how to get burnt milk off a stainless steel saucepan please?
I've tried soaking and scrubbing. Most of it has come off but not all of it.

Thank you!

Hi - just put a layer of salt to cover the bottom, then fill the saucepan about half full with water and boil for ten minutes; works every time (I don't burn ALL my saucepans, honest!)

Can anyone tell me the recipe for a non bread pizza base (I think it is a scone base and I have seen it on here somewhere, but can't find it).

ok smelly socks (not mine lol) every time i do a wash with smelly socks in it, they still come out smelling funny as do some of the dark clothes in the wash with them

What can i do to stop them smelling so bad? it also means when i hang them up to dry in the house, the room they r in will smell too :mad:

DonnaP scone dough recipe is on here http://www.users.bigpond.com/catch22inc/pizza_dough.html aswell as many others

Smelly socks usually caused by the bacteria in the socks from the offending feet, there is advice on here, which I was going to suggest is using some sort of antiseptic/antibacterial stuff to wash them in http://www.embarrassingproblems.co.uk/sweating_b.htm my sons got terrible feet and so has his Dad, I soak their socks in a water with a cap of a copy of dettol I found cheap then wash them with the cloths or towels wash :rotfl: same when I wash their trainers I always add some. Freezing them could be another option, I know many do that with smelly trainers in a bag in the freezer.

Just turned DS's fave white T-shirt pink round the bottom - it has a tiny red trim which has bled into the surrounding fabric. I must have had the temp too hot as I've washed it loads of times before OK. It also has a pattern on the front so I'm a bit worried about bleach. Any good tips please? Thanks

If you don`t mind the trim going white or pink (if it`s only a tiny trim it may not be too noticeable), try filling your sink with a bleach/water mixture and draping the tee shirt over the edge so only the bottom is in the liquid. Try a weak mixture for a few hours or overnight first, then a stronger one if necesary.
