I'll donate a tenner to the charity of your choice if you tell us what it was.0

LOL. It was a thread about something that got resolved ten seconds after I posted it!
An embarrassingly simple DIY question...
Far less embarrassing to have left it there, tbh
We're all going to have a field day wonderng what you actually said...
"I'm a regular poster using another ID....."
"I'm sorry if this is too much info, but [reams and reams of 'too much info' :eek:]
A combination of the above.
And so on.
Much - much - less embarrassing to leave a DIY question on the board for our perusal.
You'd probably have found that you got a lot of replies along the lines of "OMG!!! I did that too!!" :rotfl:0 -
OK, OK. The charity thing swung it.
I was asking how to get red wine off a carpet. Googled it in desperation and found the solution straight away (soda water - happily, I had some and it worked)Life is a gift... and I intend to make the most of mine :A
Never regret something that once made you smile :A0 -
Tropez - if you still want to do it, then I'll nominate the Samaritans, as they have helped me so much lately. Thank you xxLife is a gift... and I intend to make the most of mine :A

What did I tell you?
"OMG!!! I did that too!!"
Quick response is critical too.
Salt doesn't work as well as soda water (in my experience).
Glad it worked out for you :beer: (those glasses do not contain red wine)

You get no BS from me & if I think you are wrong I WILL tell you.0 -

. Oh and WD40 for things that squeak.
WD40 makes things move if they should, and don't.
Duct tape stops thinks moving if they shouldn't, but do....much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -

Salt! That works a treat....much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -
