Load of laundry sat in the washer over the weekend and now smell moldy. Repeated washing does not remove the smell. The clothes are colors, so I cannot use bleach.

I have managed to burn plastic to the grill element of my new oven, which is now stuck fast. How can I remove this without damaging my oven.

I put duct tape on my bike seat and it peeled up. I didn't notice and now it's on my favorite pants. I'm such a fool.

I have a British friend who was surprised that I rinse my dishes. I thought it disgusting that she doesn't rinse hers. Why would you leave a soapy, still dirty film on your dishes when you can rinse it off? My question is if other Brits do the same, neglecting to rinse their dishes?

I do my own ironing and I'm pretty good at it, but when I send my shirts off to a laundry, they come back pressed far, far more effectively than I can ever achieve. Do they have special machines for this? Do they use more steam, or higher temperatures? How can I achieve the same effect?

I have a question. What would you do if you had a friend that kept her house a total mess? to go over there is horrible. the smell makes you want to vomit, fleas area all the time biting you, and you cant step anywhere without having to walk around things. i have cleaned the house for her in the past and then it has always gone right back to hell. i feel rude by not going over to her house and always having her over to mine, but i cant stand being over there. should i say something to her? what should i do? i dont want to trash our friendship. let me know what ya think!

When I used my new chamois leather on my car, I got black marks all over it which came from the rubber/vinyl windscreen/window surrounds. Although still functional it is very unsightly, and cost a lot of money so my wife is not very happy :-).
It is currently soaking in warm water and ordinary soft hand soap. Please help.
