    Remove dark stains from light-coloured leather upholstery by mixing a paste of one part lemon juice with one part cream of tartar. Rub the paste on the stain and leave in place for about 10 minutes. Apply another layer of the paste, work it in, then remove with either a damp sponge or a damp sponge topped with moisturizing soap.

    If you really wanted to ;);)

    Paying full price?? Shame on you :p:rotfl:

    But as a fully fledged member of the Elite I can tell when things are really a bargain. ;)

    I just spent half an hour trying to flush a frog out of my garage. The little booger kept jumping from behind one stash box to another.

    I got there in the end but the garage is in a hell of a state now :rotfl:

    Bless you dippy. No man is ever worth having to live with my MIL

    She is a difficult and demanding woman who could cause an argument in an empty brown paper bag.

    I have taken her to see my friend and her baby, after 30 minutes my friends' patience had gone.

    Then I took her to my sisters.... same again

    Then I took her to my mothers' house (who is deaf and has altezheimers) it lasted about 30 minutes!

    :D:D:D:D:D
