There are two key ways of keeping the water in a hot tub clean – one is keeping the proper chemical levels and the other is keeping the filter clean. If you have a Lay-z-spa hot tub like me then you may be wondering can you reuse the hot tub filter so that you don’t have to keep spending money on new ones? Continue reading Can You Reuse a Hot Tub Filter?
So you have a hot tub, in my case a lay-z-spa Saint Tropez but obviously it could be any other kind of inflatable hot tub (and may well work on a fixed one too) and you have some bits of grit and dirt in the bottom of the tub. Are you trying to figure out how to get rid of the dirt out of the bottom without emptying the whole tub? Continue reading How Do You Get the Grit Out of the Bottom of a Hot Tub?
So when I first got my Lay-z-spa Saint Tropez hot tub I bought the chlorine granules to keep the water in the spa clean. These worked really well as they kept the chlorine at the correct level after a shock dose and then adding 2 teaspoons a day of the granules to the water.
In fact I had no problems with this at all except that my only issue was having to make sure I was doing this whether I was using the hot tub or not that day. So I decided that it would make sense to try out the chlorine tablets with the special dispenser that came with the hot tub. Continue reading LayZSpa ChemConnect Dispensing Too Much Chlorine
For an event we were running as a PTA we wanted to sell monster donuts to the children and adults who were coming so we looked around for a recipe for monster doughnuts that we could easily make.
We weren’t actually going to make the monster doughnuts ourselves but instead buy some and decorate them with monster faces. The ones that we had seen on Pinterest had edible eyes and then plastic mouths that opened over the hole of the donut (which you can buy very cheaply online) but we didn’t want to use any more plastic than we needed to so we decided to go another route with the monster mouths!

Higher or Lower, or Play Your Cards Right, is a card game using a standard deck of cards, where you have to guess whether the next card is going to be higher or lower than the one you have just turned over.
You can play it with different numbers of cards but for the game that we set up for our summer fair, we decided to pay with 5 cards. We bought these A4 playing cards from Amazon UK. (You can also get jumbo playing cards in the US but I am not sure how popular this game is there!) Continue reading What are the Chances of Winning Higher or Lower with 5 Cards?
