I haven't watched this jungle obscenity since the first series because it was so pointless, and the cruelty involved shocked me.
I don't feel sorry for the 'celebrities' because if they didn't know what they were getting themselves into when they entered the programme, they must have been living on the moon. They are only doing it to increase their public profile and hence their income.
The celebrities can say no before they sign a contract, and even once there. The animals ca
My family like to watch 'I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here' - and although I don't approve of the show, I still find myself watching it. The television has a magnetic effect.
There is a lot of cruelty to animals on the show. And the celebrities are treated very badly - almost like animals in a zoo for our entertainment. And even worse - the public seem to join in with the cruelty.
For three evenings running Katie Price has been asked to endure horrendous tasks - she's crying, shaking, and ge
I always know we have a hot dry summer to follow so i relish all the rain we get as it we be needed in our dams for summer And as our winter is only really about 3 months and then not much worse than an English summer,so we don't have a lot to be unhappy about
I have had some good experiences and some mischievous ones,I still wake in the morning and hear my Wife say what time is it? but when i look she is not there I really want so hard to believe. When we had our shops in Windsor Berks i would hear so many noises at night i would go round the shop with a truncheon in my hand, then you would hear a box of cereal then a loaf of bread etc fall on the floor but what my hair stand on end was every thing was to far from the shelf to have fallen it h
Celia they do say you have to be careful with boric acid, try half cup of ornge oil in one litre water and spray you can sprinkle nutrasweet where the ants they take back to the queen and it kills them best of luck
Spoon some borax into bottle caps, filling them about halfway.
Step 2
Set the baits wherever you've seen ants in your home, particularly bathrooms, the kitchen and the laundry area. Excellent locations include inside kitchen cabinets where greases or sweets are kept, under all of your sinks and appliances, by the kitchen trash receptacle, near doorways and vents leading outside, or anywhere that moisture is present or collects.
Step 3
Check the borax ant baits daily to see if they need to be refilled.
Making Borax Bait for Killing Outdoor Ants
Step 1
Make environmentally friendly bait for killing ants outside of your home by combining ¼ cup honey with ¼ cup sugar in a heat-resistant glass jar.
Step 2
Microwave the mixture for a minute on high, then stir. Microwave again just enough to dissolve the sugar. Stir well.
Step 3
Add ¼ cup borax by spoonfuls, stirring well after each addition. Allow the bait mixture to cool to room temperature.
Step 4
Pour 1 or 2 tbsp. of the sweet bait onto the ant mound. The sugar and honey will attract the ants to the bait, and the borax will kill them. The sugar and honey form a heavy liquid that the wind can't blow away, which is critical to the success of baits placed outdoors.
Step 5
Cap the jar tightly. Store it at room temperature for to 2 to 3 weeks
To get something out of a heat register or under the fridge add an empty paper towel roll or empty gift wrap roll to your vacuum. It can be bent or flattened to get in narrow openings.
Reducing Static Cling
Pin a small safety pin to the seam of your slip and you will not have a clingy skirt or dress. Same thing works with slacks that cling when wearing panty hose. Place pin in seam of slacks and.. ta da!... static is gone.
Measuring Cups
Before you pour sticky substances into a measuring cup, fill with hot water. Dump out the hot water, but don't dry cup.
Next, add your ingredient, such as peanut butter, and watch how easily it comes right out.
Foggy Windshield?
Hate foggy windshields? Buy a chalkboard eraser and keep it in the glove box of your car.
When the windows fog, rub with the eraser! Works better than a cloth!
Reopening envelope
If you seal an envelope and then realize you forgot to include something inside, just place your sealed envelope in the freezer for an hour or two. Viola! It unseals easily.
Conditioner
Use your hair conditioner to shave your legs. It's cheaper than shaving cream and leaves your legs really smooth.
It's also a great way to use up the conditioner you bought but didn't like when you tried it in your hair..
Get Rid of Ants
Put small piles of cornmeal where you see ants. They eat it, take it 'home,' can'tdigest it so it kills them. It may take a week or so, especially if it rains, but it works and you don't have the worry about pets or small children being harmed!

INFO ABOUT CLOTHES DRYERS
The heating unit went out on my dryer! The gentleman that fixes things around the house for us told us that he wanted to show us something and he went over to the dryer and pulled out the lint filter. It was clean. (I always clean the lint from the filter after every load clothes.) He told us that he wanted to show us something else; he took the filter over to the sink and ran hot water over it. The lint filter is made of a mesh material... I'm sure you know what your dryer's lint filter looks like.. Wellit sat on top of the mesh! It didn't go through it at all! He told us that dryer sheets cause a film over that mesh that's what burns out the heating unit.You can't SEE the film, but it's there. It's what is in thedryer sheets to make your clothes soft and static free... that nice fragrance too. You know how they can feel waxy when you take them out of the box .well this stuff builds up on your clothes and on your lint screen. This is also what causes dryer units to potentially burn your house down with it! He said the best way to keep your dryer working for a very long time (and to keep your electric bill lower) is to take that filter out and wash it with hot soapy water and an old toothbrush (or other brush) at least every six months.He said that makes the life of the dryer at least twice as long!
Howaboutthat!!
Learn something new everyday! I certainly didn'tknow dryer sheets would do that.
So, I thought I'd share!
Note: I went to my dryer and tested my screen by running water on it. The water ran through a little bit but mostly collected all the water in the mesh screen. I washed it with warm soapy water and a nylon brush and I had it donein 30 seconds. Then when I rinsed it. the water ran right through the screen! There wasn't any puddling at all! That repairman knew what he was talking about!

Reheat Pizza
Heat up leftover pizza in a nonstick skillet on top of the stove, set heat to med-low and heat till warm.
This keeps the crust crispy. No soggy micro pizza. I saw this on the cooking channel and it really works.
Easy Deviled Eggs
Put cooked egg yolks in a zip lock bag. Seal, mash till they are all broken up. Add remainder of ingredients, reseal, keep mashing it up mixing thoroughly, cut the tip of the baggy, squeeze mixture into egg. Just throw bag away when done easy clean up.
Reheating refrigerated bread
To warm biscuits, pancakes, or muffins that were refrigerated, place them in a microwave with a cup of water.
The increased moisture will keep the food moist and help it reheat faster.
Newspaper weeds away
Start putting in your plants, work the nutrients in your soil. Wet newspapers, put layers around the plants overlapping as you go cover with mulch and forget about weeds. Weeds will get through some gardening plastic they will not get through wet newspapers.
Broken Glass
Use a wet cotton ball or Q-tip to pick up the small shards of glass you can't see easily.
If you are having problems adding a photograph with your blog or profile, it's very easy to do.
Firstly, go to your own profile. On the left hand side you will see a box and the words 'edit my profile' with a pencil logo. Click on this.
This will take you to a new screen. At the top of the screen you will see a white tool bar. Choose the phrase 'edit my account'.
Click on this and then it will ask if you would like to upload a profile photo. It can be of yourself or a picture from Google such as a flower. Now attach the photograph of your choice. Once you have attached it, press 'Update Profile' and then you are finished.
Wait a few minutes for the picture to upload - and then you will see it in place (this can take from 5 to 10 minutes depending on the speed of your broadband).
If this all sounds too confusing and you are still having problems then send me an email at jennyitz@hotmail.com with the photo you would like us to include for your profile - and I'm happy to do this for you.
I took this photo two years ago when my car was 'on the road' and I could get about. I am a member of 'The Woodland Trust' and was visiting a new wood a few miles from where I live. The photo was taken with my DSLR just after a rain storm when the sun was just breaking through the clouds.
When I was giving birth, I was 'on my own' in the delivery suite (midwives and nurses present, but my close friend who had originally agreed to be there was too ill). Towards the end, when I was screaming and screaming, a voice came into my head telling me to stop screaming and to breathe! The way the voice was bossing me, and also how it sounded made me sure it was my friend.
Two days later I was told that my friend had died the day before the birth.
