This is a question reply Decorating
Make wallpaper easier to remove in the future by impregnating it with tealight wax. When you come to redecorate, simple use a blow torch to get it burning, and the paper will be all gone in maybe 20 mins.
Use scented tealights for a fragrant house.

This is a question reply Anti-phone mast protesters
Stop complaining about mobile phone masts. The more there are, the lower the power output. It also means that the phone you have pressed against the side of your brain doesn't have to increase it's power to try to keep connected to a distant mast.

This is a question reply Sex aids
One's missus operating the rubber bulb on a penis vacuum pump can continue to remove air from the cylinder long after your penis takes on a mottled bruised appearance, and once the pump is removed, the forced-erection it has produced becomes an amusing and curious novelty after 3 hours of vacuum-induced priapism.

This is a question reply Car drivers
Once you've finished pumping petrol and before you return the hose, grab the pipe near the pump and raise it slightly to allow the petrol in the hose to enter your tank rather than leaving it in the u-bend shaped hose.
A bit of maths shows that a 7ft length of one inch-bore hose will hold about a litre, give or take.

Before setting out to single handedly wipe out your rival Triad gang with a machete, paint the ends of your fingers with clear (don't want to look like a girl) nail polish. That way when forensics turn up they'll be none of your finger prints left at the scene. Just seen it in 'Election 2'.
