Still waiting to hear where you put the bottle of white vinegar....

A dangerous question I realise...

Don't put your clothes in on a cleaning washing ! Only do that on an empty machine.

It's bad enough trying to get it off my hands. I've stood rubbing my stainless steel sink as that's supposed to do it but it's not always longlasting.

Mort, I have read that you can squirt a bit of toothpaste on your hands and rub together, then rinse under running water to get rid of garlic pong on your hands. Haven't tried it though, so let me know if it works.

Hi

Bicarb and salt is fine.

You have to leave it for a while though before adding the vinegar to give it time to work.

Bicarb is an alkali, vinegar is an acid, they neutralise each other, giving off a gas, hence the bubbles.

It gives off Carbon Dioxide, forming bubbles, that is why soda bread rises, it reacts with the buttermilk, which is acidic.

Re: How often do you clean your washing machine?

It is?
I'm getting worn out ... it's ages since I've done science class at school and even then I was only good for lighting the gas jets without the Bunsen burner hose attached.

Though I'm in no way fick ... why was it that when the teacher asked 'Anyone got a light?', I was the only one to get my fag lighter out?

Hi

Science is easy, no special talents needed.

You are an amazing artist and wordsmith, really talented.

Do not do yourself down.

Re: How often do you clean your washing machine?

It was that Periodic Table did me ... too much like the enigma code.

Science is for clever folk.

I agree...all I was ever good for was Getting Up To Mischief!
Looking back it's a wonder I was never expelled...gas taps...like moths to a flame turn 'em on and nip out.

Good thing Morti and I were never at skool together!

Sensible question...is distilled malt vinegar the same as white vinegar?
I mean, it's white, so...?
