10 Jan, 2014

 

Brilliant! Thanks for the fun Mark x

10 Jan, 2014

 

OK, OK. Antoher one has won. But can somebodz explain to me, what for does one need for hanging clothes brushes on also a mirror?? That was misleading...

10 Jan, 2014

 

No its the old fashioned way Kat, my grandparents days, one used to stand in front of the mirror and then brush any bits off collars and shoulders of coats, of course the gentry had a valet or ladies maid to do that for them, nowadays one has a handy gadget with sticky tape on it to remove bits of fluff or do it my way and pop it in tumble dryer with a damp clean cloth......

10 Jan, 2014

 

Never heard of that - amazing! Must try to remember it next time.

10 Jan, 2014

 

Lincslass@OK, thank you. I know what you mean, my grandparents had it too, but it was always part of hanger for coats....I was just teasing Mark ;-)
