Marians Tips
If you have any wine leftover put it into an ice
cube tray and freeze, it can be used in sauces and gravies etc.
Slice a fresh Lemon or Lime put into a polythene bag and freeze. Its really refreshing to use in drinks instead of ice cubes.
To keep cats away from the bird table scatter orange peel
around the base. The birds can eat in safety.
If you dont have enough paint brushes for the kids, give them cotton-buds instead, they work just as well and can be thrown away afterwards. (The cotton buds-not the kids!)
