I've just found that bicarbonate, warm water, lemon and vinegar takes the nasty black bits off kitchen/bath/shower tile joints. I know it's useful as well, so really this is usefully frivolous or frivolously useful. | | |

Bored, bored, bored. Out of my mind. Even more bored than Lincoln, I reckon. And, yes, I know boredom is a symptom of a lack of imagination. But hey, I’m a translator. I just mimic what other people say. I don’t have ideas of my own. Discuss. Or send me a joke. Or a loaded gun. Anything. | | |
