    Left handed glove becomes orphaned ... and ... get's chucked in the cupboard under the sink ...

    Now ... Is any one else as daft as me to keep it and not throw it away?
    And any idea's what I can do with the many spares under there!!

    whole thread of ideas here :) I'll merge this later to keep ideas together.

    Yes perfectly, saves electric and gets more fuzz out of the corners, just use sweeping movements and it'll collect in a little pile (and make you feel *urgh* if you leave it a while :o )

  • When I'm sewing I can't bear to wear a thimble but sometimes need to really. So one day I chopped up an old and v lonely rubber glove, used two layers on my middle finger and one on my thumb, and found it worked brilliantly!!!!!!!!!! If you're as mad as me and try this you'll need to use, say, the little finger of glove so it fits tightly on middle finger .... you get the idea ...... off to have a little lie down now...........
    Wilson the Volleyball is one of Hollywood's most loved volleyballs. His glittering career started when he became the only companion of Tom Hanks' Chuck Noland in Cast Away. Many say this is Wilson's best performance and he couldn't have given a better effort.
