Scratchy labels Part 2

Wow, I bet none of us would have thought of that - fancy pressing it if it was creased [ironic] emoticon. Who do they think we are???
PS the thread was called "The princess and the pea"!

I'd NEVER have thought of ironing something?

Next thing you know they'll be telling us that the dust on the new china we have bought can be removed by washing it before use.

I wish they would tell you how you can remove the sticky label. That would be useful.

Looking at a bag of mixed nuts I was alarmed to see written on the side of the bag: WARNING-MAY CONTAIN NUTS. Just as well I checked, that was the last thing I expected in a bag of nuts!!

I think I've an iron somewhere! Can anybody remind me what they look like?

Oh! I remember. They're a long stick with a lump of metal on the end you use to try and hit a ball into a hole in a lawn with! Why would that improve a garment?

Sticky labels - grrrr! They ruin things - why do they put them on?

I`ve just bought 4 new mugs, 1red, 1blue, 1 purple, and 1 pink. On the bottom rim of each mug, it says, red, blue, purple and pink. Maybe they think I`m colour blind?

Sticky stuff remover from lakeland, removes label gum from any fabric or surface.
When my GD was at nursery they told her mother that she had failed to recognise an everyday object in a test, turned out she didn't know what an iron was

Harrigran , that's a GD after my own heart. Can't remember the last time i used one!

WD40 gets rid of sticky label residue, no need for a separate product.

Well remember the time in Germany when gin was in the cleaning cupboard for just this eventuality; it does the job of removing sticky labels perfectly ..................and also used to stop your windscreen wiper fluid freezing. That's OK until you drive back for hours to the Channel, go on the ferrry, are waiting hours the other side to disembark and idly wash your windscreen....................AAHHH Customs men come down heavy with their "anything to declare?" smell the gin and take your vehicle apart. We were usually moving from Germany to England with overfull car..................as I said "AAAHHHHH!"

Thanks, mrsmopp.

And harrigran! Thank you too.
