 The big question is:
Can you use soap flakes in an automatic washing machine or do we have to go down to the river???

 The hilarious bit about this is the competition, Regatta to kit out FIVE families from head to toe for FIVE HUNDRED quid!!!
|
|
 John, soap flakes in an auto is a bad idea. Think foam party in your kitchen...
|
|
 I've still got about two years supply of Lux stashed in my kitchen.
Stu, I think you must be putting too many flakes in the washer, try half the amount that you would normally use with conventional powders.
And don't put it in the dispenser drawer, mix it with hot water and put it in the drum.
|
|
 Seconded, that's what I do. And now I know that Lux no longer exists, I can stop looking for it...
|
|
Maybe I should sell my stash on the black market.
Who's gonna open the bidding...
|
|
 Poo, we don't have a Sainsburys or Morrisons round here. That's North Wales buggered then
|
|
 Dan sounds like you aint got much up there in North Wales!
|
|
 'Cept snowdonia?
an - Are yo telling me that Sainsbury's doesn't have a store in North Wales?
Blimey!
Si(C)
|
|
Don't think there are, unless someone knows better
|
|
Okaaay so what is your nearest supermarket then Dan?
|
|
 Isn't the BIG supermarket on the outskirts of Bangor a Sainsburys?
|
|
There's on at Oswestry...
|
|
Well, we just harvest the local leeks and sheep for food.
|
|
err it is true what they say about those up North (IN WALES) then.....that you really are very strange people?
|
|
It's not so much that they are strange people, just that they redefine the term 'animal lovers'.
:-)
|
|
 Whenever I've used soap flakes in the past I've ended up smelling like a wet sheep. Would be nice if they could improve the 'fragrance'
|
|
But wouldn't having a fragrance defeat the whole object ?
They are supposed to be pure.
I've never had a bad smell from using Lux, although I once bought some pure coconut flavoured soap flakes from South America and my kit would come out of the wash smelling foul.
|
|
 What, sort of coriander coconut chicken?
Helen perhaps you should have a shear before you wash with soap flakes?
|
|
Hmmmm, the smell of wet sheep...
I'm getting excited!
