TOP TIPS



I was using public transport recently and I got into a conversation with a fellow traveller about Top Tips in the home (like you do). It culminated in a group of people brainstorming and coming up with these gems (again try them at your peril!!)

String: Don’t get into a tangle with a ball of string. Simply put it in a dry teapot and pull the end out of the spout.

Eggs: If you spill an egg on the floor cover it with salt and leave for a while. The egg becomes hard and is easier to clean up.

Plants: Hang wet clothes over your plants to water them.

CD’s: Use old CD’s as drinks mats (I think they would be too slippery) Maybe a better use would be to hang them outside to scare off the birds from the veggie patch.

Cakes: When you put a cake into the cake tin, put it on the lid. This will make it far easier to get out when you want a slice.

Remote control: This is the daftest one yet. If you are worried about spilling a drink on your remote control, cover it in cling film, you can still press the buttons but it won’t get wet. (Why don’t you cover the furniture in plastic too whilst you are at it!)

Household.
