If your hoover is broken - simply stand it in the corner of the room and it will soon gather dust.

I was reading a book and I didn't have a bookmark to mark the page so I squirted a bit of mustard on the page. Problem solved.

Always crush an oxo cube in the foil, do it slowly obviously otherwise it will burst everywhere, then once crushed just tear a corner off and pour, no fuss, no mess, thank me next time.

When frying or poaching an egg, always crack the egg on a flat surface, rather than on the edge of something, again thank me later.

Lay a length of about 5 or 6 squares of toilet paper, folded over once in the bowl before you deuce. Helps stop a big bloop of water aiming for your balloon knot.
YW.

I used to do something similar with some of my books when I was younger.
