    My Dad got the go ahead to buy a pressure washer for work so we tested it on my car ... wow washing a car is so much easier, we must have been in the 20th century using a bucket and sponge ... it even came with an attachment with a bottle to pour shampoo in to create foam to spray all over the car. We used concentrated shampoo and it gets through it really quickly so I am guessing you can maybe dilute it or buy something designed for pressure washers, because it's quite wasteful using regular shampoo but we were just testing it out

    Overall, very impressed!!!!

    Bought a new elephant lamp for my living room, looks really good. I'm currently decorating my whole flat and buying little bits here and there (as don't have too much spare money). Once I have done the living room which is coming on nicely now I am going to do bathroom Nautical themed, and then my bedroom space themed.
    I have Autism, ADHD, Schizophrenia, Gilberts Syndrome and Crohn's Disease and have knowledge in these areas.

    @66Mustang ... game changers aren't they  :)

    You need a dedicated snow foam ... something like this 

    https://www.halfords.com/motoring/car-cleaning/car-shampoo/autoglym-polar-blast-snow-foam-2.5l-575784.html

    I think the dilution rate is 1 part product to 5 parts water on the Polar Blast ... eg 150ml of snow foam to 750ml of water in the detergent bottle or  a dedicated snow foam lance - more than enough to clean a car twice.  Some of the higher end products are more expensive but have a ratio of 1:10 so equals out.  Stay away from pre-diluted ... false economy and like cats pee   :/

    One thing I've learned ... all washers are not universal - fittings for hoses etc.  I was lucky to get parts to adapt mine from AliExpress ... my brother has an adapter araldited on ... what can go wrong when you're playing with 2000 psi lol  I've found him the right part now but he lives 40 miles away so can take his chances until i see him ... 

    On topic: I've bought some stone effect spray paint to revamp plastic planters ... looks good on videos, hopefully emulated in real life

    We have a TV that has a built in DVD player which has stopped working, so managed to get a replacement stand alone DVD player for less than £30 from amazon.

    That's a great lamp @rubin16

    Less than £30 sounds like a bargain @woodbine

    It’s rent week. Once I’ve paid the £280 on top and bills n foods I would love enough pennies left over for some Lilly bulbs to replace the once that hot trashed last year. But I doubt it. Maybe next time.
