Bicarbonate of soda absorbs smells in the fridge.....

Thanks Meanie, might give that a try.
Just found a really novel way of washing the kitchen, utility and bootroom floors.....flood the place! Left tap running with plug in to wash mince pie tray and forgot! Oops, lucky we didn't go out!

Lulu - that is sooo twentieth century!! Get with the times like I did - shut the washing machine with a bra strap caught in the seal AND go out!! It tore the seal.
Worse still, she got home before I did!!

Bircarbonate of soda and you can use Distilled Vinegar in a glass or jar both absorbs smell don't spill the vinegar

Put some charcoal in the draw Lulu, this will absorb the smell, its much used in Hospital/Hotels to get rid of bad smells. 2 small pieces should be enough? replace if required.

Will definately try the charcoal and thank goodness I don't really have to waer a bra Meanie, hubby is wondering why I am laughing so loud he can hear me from downsstairs AND with xmas carols in the background!!!!! Oh but such clean floors!

Can't remember how I know this fact, but try freshly ground coffee, when it's dried, in shallow bowls and close the drawers firmly for about 3 days!

I might try all these things for about a month!! I put this question onto my facebook and one comment was to burn it!!!! Lol

It really wasn't funny at the time!!

Oh but Meanie, your storey IS making me laugh!! Bless ya! x

That washing machine was more trouble than it was worth Lulu - about a year later I tiled the kitchen floor. I measured it first adding extra for the tile and the cement. But because the concrete wasn't level I'd spaced the tiles out in various places so the whole floor was even. Naturally, it wouldn't go back in when it was finished, so it had to be replaced anyway!!

Have used half an onion in a saucer with a little water works wonders when painting, no smell of onion either !

So that's it, one dish of bicarb, some coffee and an onion!! Oh, and charcoal and vinegar!! Will let y'all know, there will probably be an explosion!

There could be a recipe in there somewhere!

Got some ketchup for that recipe, sorry it's for the brass

Supah doopah cleaning remedy, we will make a fortune!
