They are very big fans of Oxi-Action, (gets whites whiter 'parently, or so I'm told as the 6/8yo regularly walk me to that shelf in the supermarket.)

How thrifty of him to want one of those things that gets the last bit from a tube. My neighbour gave me one but it's so small I've lost it already. I just chop the tube in half and poke the last bit out.<br /><br />I hope you had wonderful Christmas and New Year xxChristina @ Fashion's Most Wantedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06583201549332262341noreply@blogger.com
