Ever since 'Red Dwarf', I wouldn't countenance ever purchasing a "Smeg" fridge. Can you imagine opening a bottle of milk taken from a Smeg fridge and seeing the cream at the top? :eek:

"Smeg" is the perfect name for them, Ian! ;)Quote:

I've just resurrected my valve head amp.
It didn't work :(
Had a gander and realised I'd nicked the output capacitors :doh:
Working now :)
Such fun.
I am valveless... I have no valves :eek:
After a few hours of use my Garrard 401 starts to smell like my grandad’s old Bedford van.
Ha - as long as yer pants don't! :D

Have you noticed that you can't buy spray bleach now? I use it quite a lot for cleaning and wanted more. Nowhere seems to stock it now. Probably regarded as a potential weapon! :rolleyes:
It'll be oven cleaner next!!
Caustic soda is becoming difficult to obtain these days.Quote:

We use bleach very occasionally (such as on our enamel bath), as bleaching everywhere is not particularly good for your immune system - and if you clean stuff often enough it doesn't need bleached! ;)
Cleaning products made from natural ingredients are far better than anything with chemicals in them - certainly much healthier :)
Marco.
Cleaning records! :lol:Quote:

And as for protecting the immune system, well adults should have fully developed ones in any case.
Most of the inerior paintwork in the house is satin white and picks up discolouring hand marks quickly and I find bleach spray works well at keeping it looking decent.
Lol - only your Lonnie Donegan shite, surely? :DQuote:
