Oh BUSTED or what



OK back on track now here at "Top Tip"TM HQ


Imagine if Lillies have stained your favorite knitwear or blouse as you "accidentally *" brushed by them ( It happens ...)


Take a roll of a "well know adhesive tape" and holding the end reverse wrap it around your hand forming a sticky side out mitten


Then dab the "stained" area gently lifting the pesky pollen off with the tape


Bravo.... job done



Mop brow and fight the urge to drink a large measure of Gin





W**F



*But not a "Tiger Woods accidentally-on-purpose accident "

If your pet snake dosen't want to eat the defrosted mouse you have given him, dont bother trying again as he is probably preparing to shed his skin which can take some time. Once shed then try feeding him again as he is likely to be very hungry by then. Saves on wasting mice and/or a call to the vet!

Woof, perhaps you could have put this post in your Top Tips thread which you have sadly neglected of late. It had potential<

Do you have a "Rice supply" business ?


Or just a wee obsession with it

Dog owners.


Instead of carrying on with the vain spectacle of cleaning up after your pooch so as to allow the less vigilant pedestrians to avoid the embarressment of treading in dog mess, simply start adding British Rail (or whatever PFI hoodlum now precides) luminous paint to their food. This simple addition will draw the preventative attention of the hapless 'turd trampler', in that the offending article be visible in the dark.


Think 'cats eyes'.

Now is..


The time to look around if you're trading in or up, Christmas is a perfect time to pick up a discarded husband or wife or even

the odd widow.


House prices have dropped or stabilised & remortgages to pay the old him/ her off are hard to get. This can be deferred or even "side-stepped" so NOW's the time to splash out or trade in


Some do come with excess baggage which can effect their later performance,or even unsavory bathroom habits. Don't be put off though, seize the moment.

Beans, beans, beans. Nourishing, filling, versatile and very cheap. The cheapest way to buy them is dried. You then soak the required quantity overnight and boil then next day. Black eye beans and lentils (lentils don't need pre-soaking) are the quickest cookers, needing only about 30 minutes. They can then be used in casseroles, soups, pasta sauces, curries, chilli, pasties, salads - you name it!

mmmm... funnily enough, I ate a pile of steaming haricot beans with a delicious leg of duck and a succulent Toulouse sausage for my lunch.

    • Looking for a battery operated cat feeder please.
    • Half my family are medics, going back generations, and none of them would ever have gone, or would now go, on strike. I know times have changed, but my family knew what they were signing up for, and accepted the detriment to their families and the hours (which, in the junior years, were way longer when they are now)... because it was not only a vocation, but a stable career for life. And they felt a genuine duty of care to their patients, whom they often put before their own children.  I can only conclude that entry-level junior doctors are more entitled these days. Plus, it's insensitive to nurses, who really do deserve a lot more money and recognition.  There are issues other than pay, like the lack of available posts, and having to move around the country, but they can be improved without a strike.  I don't think the right people are being recruited into the profession anymore. We're all on lower wages and paying more tax than we were ten years ago, but many of us just have to suck it up, work our socks off and get on with it.   
    • Beglfire I start, I have a lot of respect for Doctors and owe my life to them after various mishaps over the years.  I am however getting a jaded view of them continuing to run the strike ballot next week in the middle of what is turning into a bad winter for the NHS. Of course they may vote to not strike, but personally feel it is irresponsible timing to consider it as hospitals are already struggling.  Today the BMA warned of scaremongering over the current flu outbreak (BBC News - BMA warns of flu 'scaremongering' ahead of doctor strikes - BBC News https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5y22yzl6y6o) but just seeing how many people I know are going down with it, that feels like poor spin by the BMA. How do others feel ?   
    • We have also used Niko the plumber, he was great, fixed both of our leaking toilets and was also super helpful with advice about the shower leaking.
