OT: When did soft rinse become called fabric conditioner?

When did soft rinse become called fabric conditioner? (UK) If I search for "soft rinse" in Tesco, it doesn't know what I mean. I always called it soft rinse 30 years ago.

No, but he does illustrate the changing terminology of the world generally. Brian

The subject clearly says what it's about, and that it's off topic (OT:). Yet you decided to waste time reading what you didn't want to.

See when a film comes on TV that you don't like, do you watch it anyway then moan at the BBC for showing it?

To bring it back to DIY: try buying a "trug". That apparently is now a "flexi tub". They haven't even been around that long and nobody knows the old word anymore.

You're correct, he did write that. Now what you're gonna do next is to write some of your own words. We'll get you up to speed with newsgroups in no time.

I very rarely watch anything I haven't read the reviews and looks interesting. Once in a while I give up.

I rarely moan to the BBC.

Then why did you moan about my post, since I made it clear what it was about in the subject line, and even put "OT:" for you.

I say interesting things too. You're just not reading enough.
