Half of the answer has just come to me, I think, whilst I was unloading the washing machine. I'm sure it's dry cleaning, but I can't remember the name of the bloke other than I think he was French. I might have to cheat here and do a bit of research.

Found the man Jean Baptiste Jolly and it was the Kerosene which did the trick. A little less smelly than the Roman method of using urine and fullers earth Smile

  You just cleaned up Ruth, that is what I was looking for and think it shows I am loosing it asking the same question twice.

               I see you have the same problem as I do as well in that while I am supposed to be working , mind seems to wander into these little problems we keep setting ourselves in the forums here.

I've come close to setting the same quizzy twice as well Vince so it's not just you. It's usually Find the Word that I start thinking of in weird and wonderful places.

I'll have a think and be back later.

No Vince sorry.
