We bought the sofa in DFS a couple of years ago and have mostly put throws on it of an evening when we're chilling, but not always. There are 4 large cushions on the base with zipped removable covers. I checked the label and it said do not wash, professional dry clean only. I did my usual and ignored the label and shoved them in the washer on a hand wash cycle in cold water.
Me to DH - 'If they shrink, on my head be it'.
DH to me - 'Don't worry, if they don't fit it's bound to me my fault, I usually get the blame'
I put them in the tumble dryer for 5 mins to fluff the pile up a bit and stuck them on the line to dry.
They've come up like new and fit the cushions perfectly :T
DH to me 'Thank goodness for that' :rotfl:
So he's not in the doghouse?:T:T:T:T

I'm thinking of buying a nutri bullet. Anyone got any words of wisdom as to whether they are worth the money or the best thing since sliced bread or save your money please
I don't have a nutri bullet, a little expensive for me, instead I bought this a little while back now.
I use it quite a bit (there's a video showing what it does). I made 5 different salad dressings with mine on Saturday for a birthday BBQ I did for DH. So easy to do and to wash up after. Have made soups and smoothies too.

an enormous thank you for this from dd1, dd2, their partners, my boys, and several cars of friends who went to see this tonight , they said it was brilliant and laugh all the way through.
:mad: from me, who ended up running a crèche for the kids, including cooking tea for them, while they all enjoyed themselves,
then supplied refreshments for when they all got back, like a mad house here :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:0 -

I conclude it is correctly "eBay" and that "Ebay" is wrong. However, I note that even MSE appears to have it incorrect, for example the panel on the right-hand side, "POPULAR NOW", currently has "2. Ebay buying". Obviously shows how often I use Ebay (sic).
You have concluded correctly that it is indeed spelt as eBay. The Bay part starts with a capital letter as that is the dominant and most memorable part of the name and one of the crucial elements that eBay highlights by its use of a capital B for the word Bay. Apple does the same for its products - iPhone, iPad etc.Smiles are as perfect a gift as hugs...
