ecover washing-up liquid

[slowmotion]

Christmas night found me alone in a kitchen with an Aga, a large Belfast sink, and a very large roasting dish that a big boy had just vacated. Eighteen pounds of turkey flesh. There was a fair amount of fat stuck to the pan, and not interested in the film on the box, I thought I might get stuck into the washing-up and earn some credit with my hosts.. The water from the tap was hotter than Dutch love, and there was a vast supply of ecover planet-friendly gloop.... but the fat stuck around, despite being chased about from one end of the sink to another. For about half an hour. I'm curious...

Option 5. You're not very good at washing up.

Ecover deals perfectly well with far worse things than turkey fat, what with turkeys being as lean as a ladder.

^^^^^ Blimey! Hark at them.

You should have tried rubbing it on the rocks by the river bank.

Option 4. Why wasn't the gravy made in the roasting tin?

Buy a decent dishwasher.

You're supposed to re-melt the fat you didn't use in the gravy and pour it on the dog's food, leaving only a thin film residue in the roasting pan.

The turkey was a big man. The gravy from his juices would have resulted in stents for most of South East England.

Later on, I sat next to a pointer that had been fed according to your instructions. It's not an experience I would wish to repeat without an industrial respirator and a bag of charcoal biscuits for the hound.

That name rang a bell, so I've just checked, and that's the stuff Mrs. IRW keeps buying that I keep saying is useless. Hence there is always a bottle of Fairy next to the sink as well.

Maybe not as "green" as they'd want you to believe.

Nothing ever is? Same thing with healthy eating and the like.

Gosh a blog... that’s scientific!

Calm down Reg. Just stick to turkey fat.

You will with ecover.

Bong! Oxymoron at line 1!

Always let the pans soak, it saves time in the long run.

Anyway, I hope you scraped the gizzard juice and jelly off said pan and binned it before putting into soak. You don't want to have a fat-burg on your conscience.
