    Can I run this idea past our dear admin bods please? :)

    I've had a look around GC for a forum or thread to ask a general household question/tip that our friends here might know the answer too, but I can't seem to find anything. I wonder if one could be started/pinned in the 'General Forum' please?

    I think the idea is to use Off Topic Discussions.

      Jocko, I thought it preferable to use General Forums as I don't really consider it a subject for discussion. More of a question and answer forum/thread for household tips and problem solving. For example: how to remove ink from fabric?

      The Off Topic Discussion forum is the best place @Sheal because the General forum is gardening related.

        @Sheal if you wish to start the topic off as a new thread, with what you think is the appropriate heading, one of us can make it a 'Sticky'. :blue thumb:

          Thank you @JWK, I hadn't realised the General Forum was garden related only. Thank you also @shiney, I'll create the thread shortly. :)

              I think you need to go to Specsavers @shiney . :heehee: I wouldn't call you shorty anyway because I think you're tall - would I be right?

              The thread is up and running, so if you would be kind enough to stick it for me please. :)
