    AH- we had double glazing put in not so long ago, that might be it. I wanted to dye them black but seems that won't work. Might try the Milton/bleach thing and if thats no go then just get new coloured ones. TY!

    Yay Byatt!
    Did anyone watch the guy who just jumped from more than 24 miles up? My heart was in my mouth so I can't imagine how he felt. And he even landed on his feet!
    A rather lazy day with lots of new pins on my boards in Pinterest (go Fuddle!). So many lovely things to make, so little time.

    You used to be able to buy a packet of something that would make nets white again. I don't remember now what it is called (haven't had nets for a while). It came in a small box, say 3" x 4" (from T£sco or wherever) with two sachets in it. You then simply soak your nets with a sachet (from hazy memory!). Might be worth a quick look through the cleaning section of the supermarket.

    Incidentally Mar, having previously put a hex on your gas bottle, if you have a car watch out! You may find your near side back tyre with a puncture in the very near future - although I hope not!

    RPP

    Glo white..:D

    VJ's Mum don't think anything of it!
    The jump was amazing. He was spinning badly and I held my breath a bit, but he controlled the descent and managed to speak, so I managed to breathe a bit easier.

    Fuddle I don't think I can own up to any hard work at all today.....did clean a window but it took about 2 minutes so I don't think that counts.

    https://www.pinterest.com it's highly addictive. So many great ideas... much better than google because interests are all pooled together. You can follow people you know. I follow Possession because she's lovely, no lol I follow Possession because we like the same kind of things and I can see all the things she's found and pin them to my pin boards. Just now I've added a fair few new recipes from P.

    That is where I'm going to start my new 'my next home' folder. :)
