Vinegar......my new BF

WOW I am so impressed by the powers of white vinegar. I have been watching my bath taps become corroded with calcium for the past few months. After soaking them in vinegar overnight they are sparkly and new. What a winner, and cheap too!

A good find...

Today I found some rather nice candle sticks in a local shop here called LUSH, apart from catching my eye, they were a good price too. The pair of them for a measly 50 pin - thats a fiver in UK terms.
I thought it was money well spent, now just to find some lovely candles to put in.....
