cathrobinson Dec 2022 9:34pm, 5 Dec 2022 10,611 posts	0 cathrobinson That’s a brilliant name. And yes, no Jar Lid is Safe was a particular favourite of mine too

Opening jars is my least favourite thing as I don't have much strength or stretch in my hands. I usually have to resort to a kettle to help.
