old for new

do use something that was meant for something eles in the past today for something compleatly differant in your home .

i had been looking for an drainer to hold my flat sponge and scourer pads with out going smelly , so bingo a little brain wave i had a little two person pottery toast rack the sponges stay dry and in place and no smells .great!

anyone eles got any more examples .

Yes I used my fellas hose to strangle a cat with. But yes if we're creative we can always find ways to do things with other things.

Ah got one, I lost a bolt from my bike battery and used tinfoil coiled up twisted to join the battery to the connection. The bike runs like that.

well if it works , i no you proberly dont have a tumble dryer 

but read two useful hints the other day ,so you could proberly pass them on , tin foil scrunched up in a ball put in your tumble drier stops cling .

and if you get a burn cool it first in cold water wrap  it  loosly in foil shinney side out after a few minutes its suppose to ease the pain .

i suppose by reflecting the heat from the burn away if you put the shinny side in, it would keep it in . i suppose.

How's a tumble dryer going to help my bike?

Lol I just read the rest, no I don't have a drumbled tyer;

now i have a picture of you trying to  put your bike in a tumble dryer

I'm just trying to get it back out! 

its funny how you 

just get a picture in your head .and it makes you giggle .

its awful when this happens in public and you just cant stop giggling.

iv been in fits with tears in my eyes because someone has said something and my brain has seen it as funny , iv had to leave the room .

my mum in law when i could drink was out with the whole family went to the ladies and preceeded to dry her hands under the paper towel dispenser i laughed so hard my sides hurt i was in hyesterics .

You reminded me of when I was walking through the town laughing and trying to do it quietly.

While we were on the phone my mum told me that the day before her and my sister and neice had gone out to the beach. When they'd gone home mum couldn't find her sun glasses so she phoned my sister and asked

'Have either of you got my sun glasses?' My sister said 'What do you mean either of us, there's only one of me!'

'What do you mean either of me, there's only one of me!'

For anyone who's interested there's a place where we can ask the mods for what we think would help the site. I've asked them if we can edit our comments. They said others have been asking too and if more ask they might give us that priveledge.

oh do you mean edit comments after they have been posted .

sorry got yeah

Yes! My brain was going too fast to make sense. Sometimes it's too slow to make sense.

Old for new! Perhaps I could fashion myself a new brain with porridge, a carrier bag so it doesn't seep out of my ears, and a few elastic bands? 

tell me about
