why when we are all encouraged to recycle as much as we can, why is it label manufacturers insist on using shit to a blanket type industrial strength glue?
Labels on jars, books, gifts packing of all sorts. You then have the job of peeling them off in order for the recipient of your gift to see that what they thought was a thoughtful gift was in fact a bargain bucket buy of humongous discounted proportions?
Glue to me I often thought had a nap like velvet, pull it one way and it clings to life with the tenacity of an oyster to its pearl, pull it the other and it gives up without a fight. Am I wrong?
I always reuse jam and pickle jars in order to make my own and at the same time save the planet!?! If only it was that easy?
The pussy cat ones I manage, the more aggressive species I give to himself who adopts a variety of lines of attack, from the water board treatment of soaking and then teasing off the offending article. More radical approaches are nail polish remover, moving swiftly on to wire wool and elbow grease. The limpet mine on the bottom of a submarine technique has been found sadly wanting due in no small part to the faff of having to stick the shards of glass back together after the explosion.
Flame throwers have also been discounted as not being very PC due to using the earth’s dwindling resources.
For the time being I am stuck (if you’ll pardon the expression) with
the very real problem in my narrow world in Ludlow.
If someone has any ideas or better still the email address of the man who invented post it notes I’d be very grateful...
