The meaning of the word "dropped" appears to have changed in recent years. When I read that a restaurant has dropped items from their menu, my understanding is that they no longer offer those items.

Bar Keeper's Friend is much the same as the old fashioned Ajax or Bon Ami powder cleaners. And I found that Jif or Gumption got the same results too. The problem with Bar Keeper's Friend is that it doesn't have a lid, and if you leave it in your laundry cupboard, after awhile it goes rock hard...

Some years ago I started Michael Mosley's 8 week blood sugar diet, which is also 800 calories per day. However I found I was constantly tired, lacking energy and feeling sick. I realised that 800 calories is just too low and not a healthy way to lose weight. I still followed the same foods but...

I agree with those above, my first thought was that these are pyjamas!

I often see people saying they don't answer calls if they don't recognise the number. I recently had a hospital booking and had calls from the hospital and the surgeon's rooms, both numbers I didn't know. I also had a car repair that was an insurance claim and had a number of calls from the...

It was on channel 7 news!

It was made public, it was on the 6pm nightly news. And they clearly stated that it was contaminated with silica dust, unlike this article which only gives half the information!

Sounds interesting. I like the Caramilk Hokey Pokey chocolate, Caramilk chocolate with crunchy honeycomb bits through it - yum!

I didn't know this, definitely going to try it!

I use the vanilla metho cleaner quite a bit. Especially good for mopping floors, smells divine and leaves no residue.

I have sensitive skin and buy very few soaps or cleaning products from the supermarket. I make my own spray cleaner and buy other products from the health store.
