I shouldn't have taken my granddaughter out to pick blackberries yesterday. We had a lovely afternoon, but today my back is killing me from all the stooping down to hold back the brambles so she could reach to pick the fruit.

Picking the apples didn't help much either, as I had to hold her up so she could reach them.

Mind you, the crumble was delicious!

I should not have washed my WHITE work tunics with a biro, nor should I have done in TWICE in so many weeks! What a dunce!!

Now I only have one left to last me the week .... unless anyone knows of some miraculous way of getting it out? Have tried washing up liquid, stardrops, carpet stain remover & hairspray. Failing that I will have to buy some replacements ;-(

EDIT: added nail varnish remover to the collection of tried methods!!

Have you tried vanish stain removal soap rubbed in and then wash with the vanish powder too? Has worked on small ink and other stains for me, not sure about from white material though.

I'm willing to try ANYTHING!!! I will be scouring the shelves of the supermarket tomorrow for all stain removal chemicals known to man!! Will keep an eye out for vanish, thanks xxx

Have you tried ""Stain Devils""? You can buy a specific one for ink - I've used them b efore and found them very good. Alternatively if it's an even stain you could try colour run - or bleach!

Thanks FeeJay, a friend recommended this too so I'm heading out to find somewhere that sells it!!
