Silly little things

..that you think of or discover? Add yours!

I'll start with... I've found that you use less washing up liquid when you use a bigger sponge - anyone else found that?

Sticking to the subject of sponges, I've found they last longer if they are hidden from the cats when not in use.

I discovered my bathroom sponge in bits across back bedroom floor the other day, and the kitchen sponge in the litter tray last night. (Much as I wish I didn't have to clean out the tray, this is not what I had in mind).

I find I use no washing up liquid at all (with a dishwasher)

I've discovered when I have deadlines I want to do nothing but clean the house .... but not when I have spare time!

I don't discover things wiggins does! He just found a christmas tree light bulb, i have no idea how because we have never had one go out and i have never seen spares in the box, the decs are all away but still that was his discovery this evening!

My brother frequently has these discoveries though he has 0 common sense but is very clever - he manages a tesco yet at uni he left a steak behind the freezer because he assumed it would be cold.... My dad helped him lean that lesson when we went to remove maggots! That wasn't even his worst one!

EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

I discovered a 5cm bolt with a nut half way up it in my bed the other day.

Does that count?

I've discovered that if I eat too much I don't lose weight

I've also discovered that whenever the phone goes, a little voice shouts 'you get it'. Does anyone else hear that little voice as well.

Poor Azz has tried to start a discussion topic here. Can someone take it seriously.

...... No ...... ok here we go .........
If a jar lid is too tight to undo, run it under a hot tap for 15 seconds and it'll open easily.

If a jar lid is too tight to undo, instead of holding it under the hot tap put a pair of rubber gloves on and hold jar in one hand while you easily open the lid with the other.

Alternatively you can do what I did. Get one of these:

spray bleach on a roach and it will die
oil of peppermint on a cotton ball repels rodents
