    Old Hack?

    Comment

      Use an old 3 1/2" transparent floppy disc case to keep the milkman's cheque dry.

      Get an old hair dryer, remove the heating element, stick half a bottle on the suction end with a bit of foam rubber at the bottom. Hey presto! a humane fly remover for the conservatory.



      PS That's the old version, the newer one is much neater.

        To get rid of annoying posters on CUK start a thread called Maddy and stand back.

        You know what they say about assumptions!

          Use a cheap ancient AM transistor radio to detect main cables in your wall. Better than any specialist detector.

          If the missus is annoying you by watching Strictly Come Dancing turn on an ancient video sender, kills a modern TV signal stone dead.

          Old squash balls make excellent stops for your sectional garage door.

          PS Did you know you actually don't need to plug in the cable to connect a TV amp to your TV? Put the end of the cable anywhere within about 2 feet of the socket and it works.
