I see their travel agency is up and running too. Tried to book
a trip to Tenerife but it wanted me to enter flight numbers -- I thought
that was what I was booking, inter alia!

Got one.

Only... I think I lent it to someone.

Got one, if I can remember who I lent it to.

 

It's Aldi, what were you expecting? Kuoni & Cunard?

 

When you remember who it was, can you ask them if it is any good ?

 

Ooh, can I have a me sized one please? Just what I need for getting rid of
those microbes and foul odours.

Does it de-grease spectacles? Or simply remove dust? Do you put your object
in dry, or does it fill with a liquid of some sort?

TIA

 

Fill with water, apply a tiny drop of washing up liquid.

That'll get your specs. crystal clear.

Sounds a very good piece of kit then.

 

I've had one for a couple of years. Do my specs in it every few days.

Also great for Katie's jewellery, (metal) watch straps, CDs / DVDs etc.

 

I'd goove it was unlikely to be large enough for bins, even abbreviated ones.

Put water in, put object in, switch on. For things like wristwatches,
put watch on special stand to keep intricate bits out of the wet.

 

How do you get the intricate bits clean?

 

And HOT water helps.

It's difficult getting your object in dry.

 

BE VERY CAREFUL!

If they're coated lenses the coating might suffer, and if the lenses are
plastic, the plastic surface might be eroded.

My mother was a physioterrorist, and did a lot of experiments with
ultrasound (she was the second person in the country to have the
facility - 1951, it was).

In the 1960s she was collaborating with the manufacturer in finding a
flexible extension for the sound head so that hollow areas in the
(human) body surface could be treated more easily.

One of her patients was a director of the London Rubber Company, and he
brought boxes of different types of condoms, as well as sheet rubber,
synthetic rubber and plastic film to try. They were filled with water
and secured to the sound head, but the ultrasound ate them all in
minutes flat, creating a suspension of the minute particles as they were
ripped untimely off the inner surface.

 

Relubricate with butter (don't use the bread knife).

got a cheapo one which is likely the same thing, and it jbexf. only takes
very small things, but.

 

This guy's big enough to take CDs. Looks around 12x15 cm^2 and
about 8 cm deep.
