"I think 'thick' is a marketing thing, used to imply it will thickly coat your waste pipes and continue doing the job after several flushes." sounds more like an STI treatment at the clinic | |||

"Bleach is bleach. Typically 9% sodium hypochlorite for domestic use. Doesn’t really matter on the viscosity. It all does the same job. " The viscosity is important. If you squirt thick bleach around the toilet rim it coats the sides and stays put for longer. | |||

"Trades Descriptions Act - it's no more concentrated than thin/skinny/svelte bleach. Just contains a thickening agent." Yes this. I'd be expecting "concentrated" to have more of the active ingredient so I could use less. Sounds like some advertising deceit.  | |||

"is there is such a thing as thick bleach - and by that I assume Domestos or summat - what is thin bleach?" Yes you get both thick and thin bleach. Google “thin bleach” to find it - no point trying to post a URL as this is no allowed here. | |||

"Bleach is bleach. Typically 9% sodium hypochlorite for domestic use. Doesn’t really matter on the viscosity. It all does the same job. " The viscosity does matter if you are cleaning the bowl of the toilet - more viscose won’t run off the surface as quickly. Thick bleach contains a gelling agent to help it stick when cleaning toilets. Thin bleach is intended for cleaning flat surfaces e.g. floor, work tops etc. | |||

"Surely thick people wouldn't take offence anyway?" But other people might take offence on behalf of thickies. I'm convinced that Jif became a far less effective product as soon as they rebranded the stuff to Cif. Colgate Max White toothpaste will be next to go .... The rot set in when they banned the smiley Robinsons Jam caricature whose generic name escapes me at present. Can you still get Camp Coffee? Nothing used to evoke the comforting majesty of the old British Raj than a steaming cup of that chicory-infused Scottish beverage. | |||

"Surely thick people wouldn't take offence anyway?" They may be offended if they were called "concentrated" though? 🤔 | |||

Nothing used to evoke the comforting majesty of the old British Raj than a steaming cup of that chicory-infused Scottish beverage. " I think Camp Coffee with added Chicory is still available in the shops Randomguy, although apparently, the Schwartz brand owners of McCormick UK Ltd, the Paisley-based makers of Camp Coffee, are currently exploring new names as part of a potential rebranding effort. According to an unnamed source, "Cairn Coffee" and "Calluna Coffee" are among the contenders. This wouldn't be the brand's first major change, given its history of adaptations since its inception in 1885 by Paterson & Sons Ltd in Glasgow. Now under McCormick UK Ltd's oversight, Camp Coffee has remained a beloved staple. Is there no end to this sheer pc madness I wonder? 😡 | |||

"Oooh!! My good Lord!!!... I don't believe it!! Whatever next??... In today's broadsheet:- Following the reports about "Thick Bleach" and "Camp Coffee" renaming, another article has popped up implying that the words "gullible" and "gullibility" are under review by the OED (Oxford English Dictionary). Apparently, they're working with Webster's Dictionary to decide if they're still words that are suitable for inclusion in their next editions as they could be construed as being offensive to the coastal avian community!! Can this be true? How absurd and totally incredible!! It's just another insane example of how urban myths can spread, and how we are being forced to keep up with the changing landscape of language, together with the importance of protecting the innocent and those who are so easily led up the garden path. I wonder if perhaps we should all exercise the caveat! Pffft!...Ah well! Now to tackle the crossword before coffee." Again, how does this impact you? | |||
