I would like to invent a plastic template that fitted over my nails so that when I paint my nails none of the varnish goes in the wrong place.

What would you invent ?

A device to enable socks to be put on easily without having to pirouette on one leg like an incontinent old ostrich without feathers.

Anno and Dahlia, they have body dryers at Centre Parcs swimming pools, but rather a chore having to stand still while it works!

Oh - how I identify with that one - I hate all the background music.

Hi Lona - the only one I've ever seen is the one my friend's Dad made for her Mum and it was driven by the force of the water. What a clever Dad!

Roasted with the peel on is good. And chips. And leave the peel on when putting them in a stew. Same with carrots. So long as they are happy carrots organic ones.

I thought the advice now was to peel the skin off everything? Something to do with chemical fertilizers.

I want something that hangs my clothes up for me - and makes my wardrobe twice as large. Am currently throwing older clothes out because there isn't room to hang onto them. So many memories being trundled off to charity shops...
