Useful tips #1

Not sure this is that exciting as a tip but thought I'd christen this page.

If you want a handy gadget to keep your metal tools et al close at hand but out of the way, get yourself one of those metallic strips you can buy in kitchen gadget type shops that you 'stick' knives to and screw it to the wall in front/side of you. (I think mine came from Homebase).

Perfect to keep your knives, tweezers, mashers etc., to hand without fumbling around beneath you to find the right tool for the job.  Reduces the amount of workspace you need too.  (Doesn't work with stainless steel 'though).

Thanks for that Les I'll have a furtle in a mo.

Am I right in thinking that the time clock is a bit askew?  My post says 11.50 something and it's actually 17.00??

ooo, cool tip bev, i'm at the moment convincing my father i need all types of storage, so i might try this one to!

I think the clock is out slightly, just can't figure out whose time zone we're in!

Bev, to change the clock go into profile and then click look and layout preferences, set the clock to +5
Great Tip there, Thanx

Well I managed to sort the clock, minor miracle.
Thanks for the tip Beverley, its things like that make life easier.

Thanks for the clock heads up girls!  Sussed it out.  It's obviously done that way in case there are a number of people in different time zones I guess.  That's better.  Thought I was in the Twilight Zone for a minute.....
