How can I get green felt tip out of a brown leather footstool ? DD drew over DB's footstool at the weekend and they can't seem to get it out.
Anyone got any idea's ? Have tried ordering them a new one but they don't make that particular sofa anymore so I can't get a new one ordered.

Housekeeping section......blimey sounds like something from the 50s.

If you ever see me on it, slap me.

white spirit? (test on hidden area first in case it take the colour out of the leather)

or there's some great stuff called De-Solve-It (from tesco etc) which takes most stains out of most things - do a colour test though as it's pretty potent. Also smells randomly of oranges...

how do you pedal a cello Mrs B?

with difficulty!

(Pruni's selling hers and I'm sorely tempted, but if I bought it I wouldn't be able to afford the car I'm saving for...)

I think it might be pedlar

unless you are actually taking it for a ride down the road?

exactly - pruni is peddling the cello (cos she's selling it and is hence the pedlar), but I'd need a way to get to Dorset without a car, so I would be pedalling it!
