Tell him it's Marmite.

I think all in all he is good value for money. My dear departed FIL was like that. He drove a black cab in Glasgow and often brought refugees home for tea. My MIL was a Hyacynth Bucket so laughs for us all round.

He is a bit of a "decent chap" that way, we're forever embroiled in other people's plights, we once found a Guatamalan family in a forest and relayed them home (to Sheffield, not Guatamala). He's saved a baby from an overturned Range Rover, rescued two lost fashionistas stuck on a rock face (in stilletoes) Mended endless motorbikes at the side of roads, etc. the list goes on.
Maybe I should overlook a jar of EXPENSIVE mayonnaise.

Mr. Moany's awful nice too - though his rescue record is rather lacking compared to Mr. Topher. He did once rush a family whose car had broken down to the airport - at 2am!

Pales into insignificance when compare to fashionistas in stillettos on a rock face - Guatamalen families in a forest! But the icing on his cake has to be the baby in the overturned Range Rover - worthy of a medal that one. :T

Belay my last post. I respectfully suggest that, even if the mayo' came from Fortnum & Mason, the karma account is still well in the black.

Aah, men eh? What would we have to ponder over if they occasionally used their brains?
I've actually caught my OH using a duster to dry the washing up with. A yellow fluffy duster that is.
What a wally.
Lots of training required......

More worryingly ...............

Who discovered that Mayo removes Tar from car seats? ...... :undecided

and why?????

and why did the tramp have tar about his person?

I'd let him off this time as its a first offence of this type, and his rescue record is impeccable.

I was going to make a flipant reply about how you should use all his conataminated credit card but reading the rest of the post I thought better of it :A

May I suggest a jar of cheapo mayo kept somewhere cool like the garage would be appropriate.... after all if you give 'em the posh stuff to clean with they will use it......
so 2 lessons really
1) tip a little out the jar to clean off tar
2) tar doesnt worry about organically produced or cost....
(pick one each lol)

ps congrats on a sweet huby BTW :beer:

I worry about the 'who thought of that thing first' too

I mean, who was the first person that thought....hmnmmm whatever comes out of that chicken I'm going to boil it, fry it etc

If you pull that bit on the cow and what ever comes out of it hmmmmmm I'm going to put in on my cornflakes, make a milkshake out of it

If you chop a pig or bull up, hmmmmmm I'm going to stick it in the cooker with potatoes

Rice..who would ever have thought of that?

Also, theres the why and errr why???? like parsnips, how did anyone ever pick them from the ground and decide this was something people would like :eek:

see... this list goes on, I take me hat off to all those people that discovered it.....by the way, what else can mayonaise do? :rotfl:

........... who first thought mmmmmmmmmm yum yum while looking at a frog jumping about?

........... and I bet the person who first thought of eating snails was also a 'bogey eater'!

.............shudders at the very thoughts!
