Re: Tips for cleaning badly soiled underwear

Don't ask...

A many day soak in bio washing powder eats away almost anything. Bleach does too, but bleach destroys cotton. Though I'm not seeing why an overnight presoak would not result in a clean wash in a machine.

Agreed about bio washing powder. But what did young mums do decades ago to get their baby's Terry-towel nappies clean? Lots of suggestions here

Mr Cole is a well-known troll in the amateur radio and management groups. He is getting insufficient reaction nowadays in those parts, so I expect he is setting about pasrures new. The person he is attacking actually has something to contribute to uk.d-i-y, so I hope he doesn't get drawn into the troll arguments.

mainly they boiled them

whites coming out grey? go for a 90C wash

now plonked

WHOOSH

You were doing fine until you added that bit.

The person he is attacking has ruined uk.ra, encouraged by you and your chums- including openly encouraging ?bounce ups? etc and sending malicious Emails.

I?m not defending Steve but your post is the height of hypocrisy, as usual.

Cole is very sick in the head, desperate for attention, and unfortunately will even thrive on this particular critique paying him atention.

PS. A sign of Cole's desperation is that he takes a thread from one NG and then splatts it over several, he being a fisherman casting his net over as wide as possible a field for attention-gathering.

(Even if a mixed metaphor sings it should be derailed????? :-) )

Windowlene on the rocks, perhaps.

He is known as a drinker, yes.

My advice to the DIY group is to KF Cole, or at the very least don't respond to him. Lack of feedback to his posts has meant he has moved into wider circles than UKRA or the management groups, and which would now appear to include DIY.

His anger seems to stem from multiple failed RFDs that he put forward to try and take control of UKRA, but there was so much antipathy to him that his proposals either never made it to a vote, or were voted down. He's never been quite the same since.

You can tell if things are going badly for him in a discussion, for he and his hangers-on invoke Cole's imaginary friend called 'Burt' to bully instead of his original target.

And whatever you do, don't ask him which sideband to use on the 40m band...

You seem a bit gotten to, Burt. Had a few car aerials snapped off this school holidays already, then?

Thanks, Mike. I will pass that tip on to him.

Badly gotten to, Jim. I thought you were ignoring me, Jim? Thanks, Jim.
