Now the war office is showing signs of being as dappy as our old dog, she's only gone out a got hold of some coal tar soap, I mean why!?, it smell odd and I keep thinking there is something electrical burning in the flippin house what's wrong with modern cleaning products next thing she will be using a stick and the ashes from the fire to clean her bloody teeth!.

    Hi Mell

    Cleanliness is next to godliness, as they say, so you will have a shining halo soon :!: :D

    When I wer a lass, you were lucky if you had soap. A dip in't tin bath in front o't fire, and a rub down wi a nice bit o' coal wer all we got :!: :D

    I'm with you I thought the telly was going to burst into flames the other day, really odd pong I was hunting high and low for the offending electrical item that I thought was going Pete Tong, what gets me is she ie er in doors is normally allergic to almost everything including fresh air, and this stuff can stop a dead badger stinking but the war office doesn't even notice it!.
