Are you going to let us Wishlist you stuff? Or do dodgy gift art?

[–] Baku@aussie.zone 5 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

No. But I will gratefully accept general living tips, or ideas on things I might forget to buy

Sensible. Hit us with your queries - there's a wealth of life skills in the DT. Some of which we regret having had to learn the hard way. But we're all still alive and kicking, so must have done something right somehow.

I don't have any specific questions, yet, but if there's anything you think of and don't mind sharing (not that you have to), please reach out!

Will do. Even something as mundane as a doormat - which greatly reduces the amount of stuff that gets trodden into the house. Not a top priority item, but once you've settled in and have done a few cleanings then worth thinking about getting one. There may be one already there anyway.

Fair enough. get a can of bar keepers friend. Lasts forever and fixes most kitchen icks.

Oh, thanks. I usually use Jif for the stubborn stovetop stains

Try this stuff. It's pretty much a lemon & bicarb, just more convenient.
