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 ----- Original Message ----- From: Henry Miller <mailto:henrymiller@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Saturday, August 01, 2009 4:12 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: First impression of penfriend...
