Rubbing a walnut on the stain sometimes works too. You polish the wood with a cloth after the oil soaks in. You can buy walnut oil in the SM too but I've never tried it as I've only needed to do small areas.
Old hands need no excusing ... they're just as beautiful as the swallow ... they show a lifetime of loving and caring and the making of beautiful things ((hugs))
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Ooh, Lizzie, how awful! It's always worse when these things happen at night, too... hope you're a bit less sore now, and you can get someone quickly to dry out carpets etc. Insurance assessors are ridiculously slow, in my experience. Is the damage restricted to one room?
It was a lovely afternoon for gardening yesterday so I had a blissful afternoon. I got the summer raspberries pruned and tied in, and did a lot of weeding and leaf collecting. Plenty more to come...
I remember haslet. A sort of meat loaf, eaten at my Essex gran's. Don't know if she bought it or made it herself - the latter more likely I think. My OH has been talking about chitterlings, not something I'm familiar with - seems somehow related to haggis...
Inspired by booking cheap flights to Ireland yesterday, I'm now going to spend this evening booking us a cheap package holiday in La Palma.
Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.
Thank you for your sympathy. The insurance man says I mustn't do anything except try to dry it out as the assessor needs to inspect the damage. I have washed the dining chair cushion covers after taking photos. I've taken lots of photos.
He doesn't know of a local firm that can supply de-humidifiers. Says he'll look into it.
Less sore, can lie down, so slept last night.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.

Used to buy chitterlings for lunch from the market. The sausage stall still sells haslet ... a bit like a large faggot

Do we get a photo, Clari??
That swallow will have a tale to tell, Pat!
Bet Hosta is tittering, Dove...
Chitterlings , some thing from the past , was very common in Birmingham about 50 years ago not seen it in this country since
Have eaten chitterling sausages in France
You can still buy haslet from local farmers markets
