    Ink on the bed so sheet,  if I have anything like that, although we don’t use felts in bed😀,   I use Flash spray with bleach, the actual Flash not tesco/Sm own,   It comes out foamy, spray on and leave for a couple of days they put in the washing machine.  I find that shifts most stains.   Good on tee shirts with pasta sauce down the front, as it always does  🍽 🥘

    Not being mathematically inclined, I'm at a loss to understand where the money to finance the budget will come from.  
    In London. Keen but lazy.

    Maybe the chancellor is hoping for a handout from his in-laws …?

    I don't think I'm an awkward customer with the hairdresser
     She started doing my hair about 2and a half years ago,course we had lockdowns in that. Got on well. I messaged her at the beginning of the year, said I was happy with my hair,at present,our messages were always,hi hope you Are well, she told me about her family,we chatted about health. She said just let her know if wanted anything done in the future. I asked after her and her husband,and that I would like an appointment,as I'd seen a style I like. She messaged back. Sorry am booked up till January,it did end with XX. Not sure what to do. Ah,the dentist,no problems getting an appointment there. Maybe I should just glue myself to the road and let the police cut it

    If there’s one thing worse than an ink stain on a sheet it’s having a red felt tip … ooh, Mrs.

    You can bet your bottom dollar that if I wear a silk top I will get mayonnaise down the front of it.  How you get that out I have no idea.

    Trump senior is getting a roasting here because of his dodgy golf course practises. He managed to destroy a protected dune site too with that course he built further north. Smashing. 
    I really hope that Unexplained Wealth Order decision goes against him and it gets confiscated. The way that whole situation was dealt with was just dodgy from the start.

    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

    My hairdresser is a " one man band " and she was telling me of the Covid restrictions. 
    Cleaning down the whole salon between customers, limits on daily numbers and if she does a " colour treatment" she can only do that one customer in a whole day. 
    god knows how she's actually making any money. I have her come to the house and insist I  pay her double what she normally charges . 
    It's fairly possible, given these restrictions that your hairdresser might well be fully booked.
