Totally ‘tastic TWTD Top Tips 20:05 - Nov 29 with 1893 viewsSwansea_Blue

Let’s mix it up a bit, as there are only so many threads I can handle about analysing our shortcomings.

Channeling your inner Mumsnet, what have you got? Tips, life hacks, things you wish you’d known earlier. House, life, garden, anything.

I’ll start us off: get a decent cook’s knife and a knife sharpener. Life changer. Turns a crap cook into a pro (up to the cooking bit).

Poll: Do you think Pert is key to all of this?

There's an arrow?


Avoids the hassle of having to carry the petrol nozzle thingy about 2m.

Yeah, they make it real small so you would never notice it unless told about it. It's like a secret club.

No...its a petrol ⛽️ and the side the hose is is the side the cap is on. Typical Mumsnet advice here.


I think the arrow is only there if the filler cap is on the opposite side of the car to the side on which the hose is shown on the petrol pump icon.

Apologies if already posted..

Somebody can't die over all over the carpets though, shirley? I'm not wanting to get too graphic or morbid, but my old man passed away a few weeks ago (RIP) and there was only a chalky residue where he'd leant down to spend his last few moments on this world. Sadly, he was on his own and could have been there a couple of days, which is obviously something we've worried about and hoped it was quick. But it wasn't messy.

Hmm, too much info probably, sorry. I never was any good at dealing with feelings.


You'd think something could have been salvaged.
All this happened before I got to see the flat and maybe the agent shouldn't have let on about the dead guy. I could have asked how he died but I think that's borderline weird fetish stuff that I am absolutely not into at all and anything you've heard about me is totally untrue apart from the cheese.

Don't believe a word I say. I'm only kidding. Or am I?

Yes Swansea, that’s dreadful news. Everyone on here was fantastic when I lost my parents and eventually brought it up, important to get things of your chest if you need to, I bottled a lot up and thought I was fine.
Thoughts with you, message if you ever feel the need.

Save time when eating chips by putting a good dose of salt in your vinegar bottle, apply both in one go.


When coating your corn on the cob with butter, don't try the uneconomical, impractical and impossible by trying to add butter to your cob in sections.

Simply butter a piece of bread and rub all around the cob.

This is something I do, Ms Coastal thinks I'm an absolute heathen, though she thinks that for a great many reasons as well as this.

No idea when I began here, was a very long time ago. Previously known as Spirit_of_81. Love cheese, hate the colour of it, this is why it requires some blue in it.
