Hey All

I just nipped out after lunch to the bank to get some pennies and some fruit. Went out at 2pm and came back at 245pm......
When I walked through the door my dad met me with a face like a scalded puppy and said "Ive got ink all over your bed"......I asked him how on earth he had done that? In short I had gone into his email this morning on his request and noticed his car renewal insurance was up and had gone up in price quite a bit.....So he had begun phoning around and was in my room near computer too...He had been using a pen which writes like a felt tip a bit....But he printed stuff out and some ink came out and he put his hand on my pristine white bed cover...
Promptly frogmarched him into kitchen as he had some sort of other stain removal which wouldnt touch it...We got some diluted bleach and ive spent the last 20mins dabbing it with a cotton bud and then drying it...Thankfully I have got it off but dont know how he managed it yet....
He's in the doghouse.....

    Hi Barbara

    Well yes did give him the £2 coin in the end!!! Couldnt believe it how he managed to get ink on my bed cover but quite proud of myself as you cant even tell there is a mark now......Thank god for bleach in small amounts eh??

    What's his next trick huh?

    Hope youre doing okay with your back and hip issues...

    Hi Seamonkey

    Well i know im no angel and have done lots of bad stuff in past too....

    My dad just gets in a flap...I remember once having a lovely linen jacket and i washed it and unbeknown to me he ironed it but kept doing so cos the creases werent totally out...He ended up scorching it and ruining it into the bargain..GRR!!! another time he battered my car down a car park pillar but he paid for damage....

    Im off to polish me halo......
