    Hi Z,

    Ecoleaf doesn't have how many washes on the bottle/sack so have to guestimate.

    Technically I'm not giving her money, that's the main thing I have to do... say no to lending money :) buying them good quality food because they can't afford it themselves I see as something different as she couldn't afford it even if she didn't owe me money.

    Talking of my sister, she's finally in labour! Hurray! We shall hopefully welcome baby to the world overnight :)

    I have edited photos this evening and am currently weighing items ready for fleabay :) Although why people give neutral feedback without messaging first I have no idea, it's just rude.

    Sounds like a euphemism for hemp... ;)

    If it is one cap per wash, then fill up the cap with water and measure it.

    As you can probably tell, I use Persil.

    Which is probably a euphemism for some white powder or other...

    Thanks Z for the guide on how to do the laundry :p I've ordered a cap from persil as I don't have one, so will use that when it arrives and it was free. Although ordered ages ago now hmph!

    No it's not hemp, it's plant extract and good for the environment.

    To all the baby alert people, she's got 3 hrs then they're breaking her waters for her. So... baby will be born 3212 which is cbab orrrr see baaaaby :) I think that's really geeky but pretty cool. Much better than my dad's version which is cbab kebab.

    cbab

    It's the number order if you changed the letters of the alphabet to numbers :) so a =1, b=2 etc

    Baby born 4.32 7lbs 4, long fingers and his dads Jamaican nose just like his big brother :)
    Big brother woke up at Nanny and Grandads at 4.29am and shouted "oh no!" hehe.
    Both Mum and baby are well, Dad is asleep in the chair and taken the day off work.
