The other day I jumped in my car – late for work – actually late to miss the nasty traffic – and noticed that my coolant light was on.

I *carefully* drove very slowly to the nearest service station and asked the man there if he had any coolant for my car.

While he was filling up my water he also checked my oil – completely shiny stick – which as you know is not. good. He also topped up my tires and noticed that the brake pads were wearing thin.

Yes it’s been a while since I got my car serviced. Yes I’m bad.

Anyway the fellow was so nice I booked my car in for a service and he didn’t charge me for the oil as he knew I was coming in…

A couple of days later I drop my car off.

A different guy – from t’north of England – took my keys after calling me beautiful. And even though I knew it was the sales patter (I really should have had my roots done a week ago and could lose some weight) – I felt good.

Good about myself, good about leaving the car.

So fast forward a few days. This morning I walk down to the garage and pick up my car. Hi beautiful, hey guess what you won the raffle! Yeah me and boys reckon you were the best looking customer this week so we’ve given your car a valet service.”

A foolproof way to get Blu-Tack off a painted wall

Honestly, can there be anything more satisfying than a heavy thick drill in your hands as you shudder your way to making a hole in an up till then smooth blemishless surface.

No. There isn’t.

Today I have been a handywoman. I’ve been to the hardware store TWICE. Here are my projects.

The first to hang a pin-up board over the mess my daughter had made of her wall STICKING – with GLUE – pictures on it.

Pin Up Board

The second project was brought about because of the gas crisis and the need to save electricity in the home. Okay. And the dryer broke.

The Washing Line
Forgive the crappy photo 🙂

So now to the reason you’ve made it this far – the way I discovered to get rid of Blu-Tack…

Blu-Tack Solution

So I was rubbing the pencil marks that I’d made to drill the holes in the right places when I was putting up the pin-up board with an ordinary plastic eraser – the kind kids get at school – and I saw that my naughty daughter had also tried to put up posters with the tacky stuff. So I rubbed the eraser over the Blu-Tack marks and OMG they came off a treat!

A bonus for me after all my hard work.

Tissue v Handkerchief: has the war been won?

I was watching Moving Wallpaper on ABC2 tonight. Have you caught that show yet? It is a sit com about the making of a soap – Echo Beach – and it precedes the soap on the schedule so that you watch the making of and then sit back and watch the soap itself.

Moving Wallpaper

I love it. It’s a lot of fun seeing how the plot reflects the lives of the writers and the kooky things that you wouldn’t even notice if you just watched the soap but that leap out at you because you know why they were there. It’s like you’ve been let in on the secret. Very funny.

Echo Beach

Anyway the reason I brought all that up was that in one scene the Producer – Jonathan Pope – offers one of his staff – Sam – a handkerchief just after he diagnoses her with “soap fever” where the writers live and breathe the soap and lose perspective.

And I thought who uses handkerchiefs these days? I mean who, apart from my dad, actually carries a snotrag round with them?

And how often do you actually find someone to cry into it before you blow your nose?

And what’s the etiquette anyway… if someone lends you their hankie and you do end up filling it with mucous – do you give it back?

Or is it de rigeur to wash it first and post it back later?

Perhaps you’re supposed to carry around a little plastic bag in order to give it back to them in so they don’t get your germs and if that’s the case – wouldn’t it be easier to just carry tissues?

Yes they get everywhere – and oh what a bugger it is when they are left in your pocket and go through the wash – but IMHO tissues beat handkerchiefs any day.

Am I alone?

Oh woof! When friends get dogs…

I’m being unreasonable.

I’ve just found out one of my best friends is getting two red setter puppies next weekend.

Looking at that cutie above I can understand the attraction, and they’ve recently been burgled, and her husband loves dogs, but meh. It’s just annoying!

Now they’ll have to look after them! Now we won’t be able to skive off down south for a few days at a moment’s notice… not that we did – but we could have.
