A bit of Light Relief. . . . . . testing spray starch

As a bit of light relief from all things medical - whilst Stephen is in hospital where (yesterday) the Hickman Line was removed from his chest (suspected as being the source of infection) and having filled him with old fashioned penicillin (there is still a use for it) - which seems to have worked - I spent some of my free time testing 4 different cans of spray starch. Well, it's better than watching TV . . . . or ironing!

The cans of starch were as follows:

#1 ROBIN spray starch obtainable from most supermarkets -  mine was from the Coop. 

#2 CHARM spray starch from Wilkinsons and £ shops. 68p - 89p depending where you buy it.

#3 ADRITT spray starch from Lidl. 99p  Blue can!!

#4 FAULTLESS spray starch from Cosco. 4 cans for £2.99 plus 15% VAT = approx 86p per can.

Ah, a taxi has arrived - from the hospital I think.  Better dash - sorry - will post results later . . .
