    If you soak humbugs in salt, vinegar  in equal quantities with sprout water, you will find that it will kill most living things.

    Full fat coke is so acidic that it will descale a loo. Don't ask what it does to your teeth.

    It’ll probably kill lawn weeds too ... but is it cheaper than gravy granules?

    Perhaps, in the winter, you can make your own gravy granules by putting your roasting tray in the airing cupboard

    Coke doesn't do anything to your teeth if you brush them.
