A remember opening a wine bottle by jamming it in a window and pulling. We were on a school trip to Paris.
Drinking away when I got something sharp in my mouth... A piece of glass had chipped from the neck of the bottle.

Remember reading about using Coke to clear windows of your car to get the grime that just won't come off over in the Motors section on boards - I have no idea if this works as I don't own a car yet but them lads seemed to think it worked very well.

Either that or it was the greatest trolling session ever had on boards to troll on gullible eijits like me :pac:

Here's the Thread

Googling tells me that it' the citric acid in the coke that does the cleaning and then a good rinse of water to clean the coke off and spotless windows..

and mouth wash for the windscreen water reservoir to kill all the germs out - who needs fancy expensive windscreen cleaners :pac:

€5 and spotless windows

CDs can make good mirrors and can also be used as coasters.

Fold up a beer mat and jam it under an uneven table.

Pen casings can be used to fire spit balls.

2 spoon can be played to make a rhythmic sound.

Empty beer cans can be used to store cigarette butts.

Yes, the petrol station should have opened a convenience store as a means of secondary income, thereby offsetting ever-increasing fuel costs.

This morning i was debagging (Not tea bagging;)) my wifes cuppa and as per usual i deposited the squeezed bag in the little triangular area at the corner of the sink and it occurred to me how ideal this is for the purpose. It is more often than not beside the kettle, it does not get tea stained, it drains any remaining tea away safely and is just the right size and yet i doubt it was designed for this purpose.
The same with Bic Biros. How would children of the 80's have wound up their cassettes with out one and was there a commercially available alternative. i dont think so.
What is you favourite secondary usage item. (ladies cannot nominate the tumble drier corner).

Are you unemployed by any chance......?
