Pro - Does anyone else's nest boxes get soaked in rain?

[patsylabrador]

After extensive research I have discovered that Waitrose Essential, Lemon blossom and amber bubblebath ( only £1 a bottle) make excellent bubbles for blowing. You have to use about 1/3 of the bottle but that's still only about 30p. I haven't managed to get one to float away but I'm willing to try especially as the washing up is being done when I have my bath.

 

To any men who may read this, I mean beautiful, fragrant airyfairy bubbles - not the shortlived, sulphurous, foundation-quaking explosions of which you are invariably proud.

Who said they're short-lived?

I wish I hadn't just had a sip of coffee when I read that.

Sorry I may be being a bit blonde here - but you doing the washing up in your bath - are you in it at same time? Could be dangerous surely

I think patsylabrador meant that she was having a bath, whilst someone else was washing up

[Alis girls]

OOOOh - silly me - Thanks Christian for clearing up that one. I was going to suggest she gets a dishwasher but I see where I was going wrong - in my defence I have down 12 hour shift at work and brain is not functioning as well as this morning

Absolutely Patricia - after a refreshing sleep - i feel like a new woman. Brain is working and am wide awake and bushey tailed

I love blowing bubbles! It's the best thing for instant cheeriness!

 

In terms of bubbles for the bath though, I especially love this tip and pic from the fabulous Neil Gaiman:
