I bought a bundle of 5 weirdly shaped loo brushes from the local market, they have all ended up being used in the garden for cleaning scrubbing pots, walking boots etc.
That has both made me laugh, and feel intrigued. I use a variety of old and cheap brushes. for many things. Now you will have me looking out for weirdly shaped loo ones
Probably not for everybody this one but I tie a lot of stuff up in the garden in the course of a season. I put a spool of jute string in a sunglasses bag with the end of the string hanging out of the bag. Tie the top of the bag very tightly so there’s resistance and you can pull the required length of string without it unravelling. I have it in the top pocket of my gilet with the stud fastened so it doesn’t pull out of the pocket. I also have a small string cutter on one of those clip on retractable lines to cut the string.
I’ve tried a similar idea where the string spool is in a small tin with a hole in the top. Having tried both the bag works a lot better.
Good idea but I only wear thick opaque tights these days, and not very often at that, and they seem to last forever. Does anyone still wear traditional thin stockings or tights other than maybe for posh frock occasions?
