Patio weeds will vanish if you use 'quick and easy' method with cheap item
One woman took to the 'Mrs Hinch Cleaning Tips' Facebook group to ask for advice on how to get rid of weeds between patio slabs after the summer weather saw them shoot up With recent times bringing both warm weather and the odd downpour, many are discovering their patios invaded by persistent weeds. These uninvited botanical intruders, from dandelions to chickweed, stubbornly establish themselves in the gaps between paving stones. Pulling them out manually is possible, but it's a boring and often painful chore that can play havoc with your joints. Desperate for assistance, one frustrated homeowner turned to the 'Mrs Hinch Cleaning Tips' online forum seeking guidance on eliminating weeds from her patio slabs. Writing to the group, she asked: "Hi, does anyone know how to get rid of weeds between patio slabs? I think I have seen something about white vinegar. Many thanks." The flood of responses she garnered was staggering, though the most popular solution centred on using salt either solo or combined with vinegar and washing-up liquid, reports the Express. One member suggested: "Big tub of cheap table salt is about 30p last time I looked. Dissolved some in water and use that after you've pulled what you can up then it goes straight to any roots... [they] stay away for ages." Another member recommended: "Salt and white vinegar. Tip is to do this on a warm sunny day, works a treat." A third contributor revealed their method: "I poured boiling water on them and sprinkled salt on. Definitely shrivelled them up." They continued: "I then grabbed a gardening tool resembling a wire brush with a long handle, and tackled the cracks where the weeds had been flourishing but were now brown and dried up, easily removing them. It was both affordable and straightforward." Salt proves to be an effective weed destroyer, as it interferes with their moisture intake and essentially dries them out. Applying salt creates a barren patch, stopping weeds and other vegetation from sprouting in that spot for an extended period. Bargain hunters can snap up table salt at rock-bottom prices, with Waitrose selling it for 75p, Sainsbury's for 69p, and Ocado for a mere 40p. Mrs Hinch enthusiasts have also suggested alternative remedies including boiling water, white vinegar used alone, and employing a weed burner. One person revealed her technique: "I have a portable weed burner that works well." Another recommended a straightforward approach: "Boiling water works a treat. Try it." A third person offered her tip: "White vinegar works overnight. Also safer for pets."

Stop using bleach to clean toilets when £2 product works '10 times better'
One cleaning enthusiast has shared her amazing results after using a certain product to tackle limescale in a toilet - and it's very affordable too A cleaning enthusiast has taken to social media to share her success in tackling stubborn limescale in the loo, a common issue caused by hard water which leaves behind minerals like calcium. On the Mrs Hinch Cleaning Tips Facebook page, Angie Ives revealed her method for removing limescale, stating: "My daughter exchanged homes and this was the loo. "I used the black Harpic toilet cleaner and left it overnight. Gave it a gentle clean this morning, flushed and job done. No idea how a toilet bowl gets that covered in limescale, but I won't judge, the results are great." Angie posted a before-and-after photo of the toilet, showcasing the dramatic transformation from a bowl heavily coated with brown limescale to a gleaming, limescale-free finish. Harpic Power Plus Toilet Cleaner, also known as black Harpic, is touted as a potent toilet cleaner that not only kills 99.9 percent of bacteria but also removes limescale in just one minute. The product boasts being "10 times better than bleach" and claims to effectively combat urine stains, dirt, rust, while also refreshing the toilet, reports the Express. Available at various supermarkets such as Sainsbury's and Ocado, the cleaner can be snapped up for as little as £1.65. Angie's post quickly garnered over 300 likes and numerous comments from impressed fellow cleaning aficionados. Nicki Wood asked: "Do you just use it around the rim, or did you squirt it in the actual water?". Angie responded and stated: "I put about half the bottle around the underside of the rim, then it all went in the bowl." Sue Quinn said: "I'm a cleaner and this is the only toilet cleaner I'll use, it's better and safer than bleach. It shifts stains in minutes. I wish they used it in public toilets." Debbie Moulton wrote: "This is absolutely incredible, I've never seen results as good as this. Adding to my food shop." The product boasts impressive results, but if you're on the hunt for something more natural, white vinegar can also help to shift stains, as well as coke. Just pour some white vinegar into the water, give it a gentle brush and let it sit before flushing.

Turns out, Gen Z does not rule TRNSMT music festival any longer
I'm told Friday had drawn the typical TRNSMT teens, baby-faced and full of booze gulped down in hidden corners of the Merchant City before entering. But today, the little rascals seem few and far between. Between sets, clusters of festivalgoers compete over spots to languish in the shade and wait for another cooling gust to brush past. The average age is surprisingly higher than I expected. And it is simply too hot to binge drink anything but water, unless you want to be wheeled out on a stretcher. TRNSMT in Glasgow Green (Image: GT) Today's headliners are Biffy Clyro, Fontaines D.C. and The Kooks. Around midday, an alert dings on mobiles across the festival, teasing a secret act from 'Mrs Rock n Roll' was pending before Amy Macdonald surprised fans in The Hangout. The tiny stage was overflowing with hundreds of revellers craning for a glimpse of the Bishopbriggs-born singer. Other acts across the day included Inhaler, Jake Bugg, Brogeal, Hot Wax, and Biig Piig, among others. I spot more Irish tricolours than saltires wrapped like capes around revellers. The lineup today is heavy on the Celtic rock with Brogeal playing the King Tut's Stage and Fontaines D.C. taking the penultimate slot on the Main Stage ahead of Biffy Clyro. Inhaler, the Irish band fronted by Bono's son Elijah Hewson also played the Main Stage in the afternoon. Fans at the festival (Image: GT) Shade is weclome (Image: GT) I feel a sense of dread when it's time to get something to eat. I resent that attendees are not allowed to bring their own food into the festival. Pounds don't stretch that far behind the festival gates. Fortunately, the festival's handy app has all of the food offerings (pricing included) programmed in. It means I can save my energy for dancing, rather than wasting it wandering aimlessly under the scorching sun looking for something to eat. So fish tacos it is, three for £12. Decent, but I'm still hungry. Of all the acts playing today, I'm most excited for Fontaines D.C. It is remarkable to be able to see them a week after they played their biggest-ever headline show at Finsbury Park in London alongside Irish rap trio Kneecap and Australian punk band Amyl and the Sniffers. Kneecap were supposed to play TRNSMT on Friday but was dropped from the lineup in May amid an ongoing police investigation into one of its members. Fontaines D.C. are undoubtedly the biggest band of a generation. That many people had come to the festival today just to see them was clear. Everywhere you looked, there was a nod to the award-winning band, from Romance heart tops to the coveted football jersey that guitarist Carlos O'Connell designed in collaboration with Bohemian FC. When they finally take the stage on Saturday evening, the band's unwavering solidarity with Palestine is put on full display. Chants of 'Free Palestine' echo throughout the crowd during quiet moments in their set. Later, I discovered that two teenage boys, aged 16 and 17, were rushed to the hospital after becoming unwell at the festival. In a separate incident outside the main gate near Glasgow High Court, another teenage boy, 15, was treated by medics after being attacked. So not completely without incident, but a welcome change from the volume of arrests witnessed in years past. Overall, police said there were just four arrests on Saturday. Offences included breach of the peace, possession of a knife, drug offence and breaching curfew. Glasgow is lucky to have a huge city festival like TRNSMT. With ticket prices to concerts soaring higher each year, festivals offer people the chance to see a variety of new and established acts for a decent price. As a UNESCO City of Music, it was nice to know that the festival is not just for the youth anymore. This year proved that millennials and beyond can find their place at the festival.
