I find that really helps. (Drink water at night and fruit juice in the morning.)
Tip 17: Use Coca-Cola to remove the most stubborn stains from anything
(burnt pots, toilet bowl, mildew)
Ohh, that's a good one, Mrs N drinks that stuff. I hope it still works with diet, I'm sure she'll still insist on spending good beer money on a range of plastic cleaning bottles though.Quote:

The kids think it's a party and it saves on the washing up!
Seriously this week has been a living hell with pots everywhere (I have mostly had the kids) so I have once again re-discovered the joy of paper plates.
Tip 19: Don't walk and text due to street furniture.
My face is testament to this folly.

Tip #20: Join a literature forum; preferably "Online Literature Network.
Great idea for a thread! The collected wisdom of Litnet, all in one place!
Tip #21: After cooking a very hot curry, put the toilet paper in the fridge.
Cheers, it's the little things that make a difference. :biggrin5:Quote:

(Pat don't rub, as the toilet paper disintegrates quickly). I've done this many times after riding around venues for work where there are inadequate ablutions.
Tip 23: If you're looking after the neighbour's dog while they're away on holiday and the dog dies, blu-tack the dead dog's front paws to the window as they're about to return, and then, when they've seen it and waved, take it down and pretend it died suddenly through the excitement of seeing them again.
This was one option open to us when our neighbours returned from a hospital stay once.
love tip 23!
Tip 24: Ask your friends and family for useful tips for a happy life
I remember a landscaping job I had next to an old folks village. All day long this old bloke stared through his window at us working, all day, didn't get up for lunch of anything, also didn't seem to blink
No wonder
At least he wasn't there the next day
Tip 25 - when shopping stick to your list, even if there's a great special on something you'd normally ignore
It might seem like a bargain, but that oyster sauce was off! Two days bedridden with the shakes - not worth it
Tip 26: Never put off to tomorrow what should be done today, put it off to the day after tomorrow.
Tip 27: If you scratch your arse, you shouldn't bite your fingernails
Now that's my sort of tip. I couldn't tell you the jobs I have put off, I would get repetitive strain injury from typing.Quote:

Tip 28 - Eat nice bread and drink real coffee.
It makes all the difference.
