I haven't got a clue what you're talking about but we've only got a roll at the moment without the box. Will have to look when at the supermarket next. -------------

| I didn't know either until I saw it! That's the second thing I have seen from her show that was right in front of me that I had no idea about. The other was the thing with the petrol thingy in cars.. |

on the side....so if you have it the normal way...turn it around so the little sides are facing you..on the sides are tabs that keep the gladwrap in so it doesnt fall out. ------------- Mum to two amazing boys! |

Well for those who can't remember which side of the car your petrol tank is on..the little arrow on your petrol indicator actually points the way! Older cars don't have it though... I used to always forget whenever I swapped cars with DH haha
