Prefer to cover up or spend some time in the shade but getting some sun each day where possible as we do need it for vitamin D. I know that if I was going abroad then it would be different, I would use it then of course.Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05799594980600477320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8362836138711754490.post-68833067836789894632013-09-27T19:32:06.793+01:002013-09-27T19:32:06.793+01:00Well I think people are trying to use dryers less ...Well I think people are trying to use dryers less because of the cost of electricity & to reduce the environmental impact. <br />I don't mind ironing I usually watch telly or one great thing I found recently was listening to an audio book from the library.

Well I grew up with the Crimplene that magic stuff of the 'sixties that never creased & just drip dried with no ironing needed.

I was so glad when the hospital started providing her with scrubs that they laundered.

Aldi is very reasonably priced & has the 5* UVA rating but the cream does stain. Haven't used the spray yet.<br /><br />I was going around the chemists yesterday & having a good look at the ratings. I found that the most expensive doesn't necessarily have the best ratings!

I was going to try the white vinegar & detergent soak first & if that didn't work I was going to resort to the bleach!

If they are white clothes I would use just a few drops of bleach on them. I know, but it works. Dab it on with some kitchen paper (test it on an area first if you like). Don't leave it on for too long, although I've never got a hole from doing it, and I do it on many white clothes, and they should go. I just dab the stained areas with clean water afterwards and rewash them. Worth a try if the stains won't come out at all.
