Ah! Barbara, now that is a good idea.  I Braille a few of mine here and there 
to give to those who prefer that format, but I am so limited for what I can put 
on them.  This is certainly something worth investigating, I definitely hadn't 
thought of that.  I can feel a laugh coming on in our office!!!

Was thinking. Someone gives you a print business card. Stick one of the small 
labels on the back and get someone to record info for you. So you can keep 
business card and still access info on it.
 
I too await the laundry labels, will save those embarrassing days when you put 
ill matching clothes on and no one wants to tell you!
 
No more squeezing alittle out of the shampoo and conditioner to see which one 
lathers, label the bottles.

        The ones I bought were in Smiths, they come in packs of six at just 
over £1 per pack.  They have things like, fax, urgent, filing written on them 
but I have since had another idea and have sent my daughter off to Smiths to 
buy some of those plastic binding strips you use for binding A4 sheets for 
essays etc.  My plan is to cut them into lengths of 1-1.5 inches and put the 
small labels on those.  This should do for slipping onto an edge of packaging 
but will also do for the label that is sewn into ties.  I suspect they could be 
clipped around the wire that runs up to the hook on coat hangers or over an 
elastic band round a plastic bottle in the fridge either.
         
        Part 2, after a quick trip to Staples myself - not Smiths this time!  
They sell some quite strong magnets about the size of the large round labels 
that will be ideal for cans etc.  They are about£2.40 for 12.  I also bought 50 
plastic key tags for around £2 that will take the small labels nicely.  They 
can be put on an elastic band to pop round bottles etc.
         
        All the best,
        Barry G

                Hi Barry
                 
                Where can I purchase the bull dog clips with pads?
                 
                You have some great ideas for the pen friend.
                 
                best wishes
                 
                Henry
