ALWAYS

read the terms and conditions. It’s a message I have preached for many a year.

Sadly, I have a confession to make. I have failed to adhere to it in my domestic life.

For the past six weeks, I have been merrily washing my clothes with Fairy Platinum All In One Original dishwasher tablets – not even latching on to the fact that something may have been awry when my pants and socks were coming out of the wash almost starched. Even the odd itch here or there failed to alert me to the error of my ways!

Only when my friendly cleaner asked why I had two packets of dishwasher tablets in my cupboard, but no washing powder, did the penny drop. I have now acquired some washing tablets. As I said at the beginning, always read the small print – and, crucially, the label as well.
