Peg to differ - twisty pegs by posh pegs. New from Roullier White.

-
In recent months there has been a dramatic reversal in the use of tumble dryers as the environmentally conscious consumer becomes far more aware of their electricity usage and subsequent carbon output. This has resulted in resurgence of the clothes line; not only is it a more environmental way to dry your clothes, it is also free and your clothes will last longer. Whilst the clothes line, as a laundry option, was going through a slump, traditional wooden pegs were less in demand and as their prices dropped so did their production quality.

The Twisty Peg is a whole new concept in peg technology. Designed and manufactured in the UK the Twisty Peg is a solid one piece design with no moving parts, it will flex and twist as required, but will never break or snap. There is no spring mechanism to malfunction or become detached, sometimes hitting you in the eye! What’s more you can peg out with one hand. No more trying to hold kingsize sheet, peg bag and peg all in your mouth at the same time!

Brightly coloured, the Twisty Peg is readily found if dropped in the grass, and the Twisty Peg will not rust and has complete UV protection so will not rot. Traditional pegs can stain your clothes by either the wood construction getting dirty and wet or by the spring mechanism rusting. None of these can happen with the Twisty Peg's solid one piece construction.

No Pinching or cutting, as there are no moving parts or you will never trap your fingers in a Twisty Peg or be cut by sharp edges. Twisty Pegs are fully child safe. It has three different size holes for a variety of washing line thicknesses and fabric type.

Twisty Pegs are weather and UV resistant. You can happily leave them on the line if you desire, with no detrimental effect to them or there performance. If they do become dirty over time, then just pop them in with your next wash and they will come out looking brand new again.

Should they drop onto your lawn and not be spotted, no need to worry. Due to the natural flex in the material they are completely lawn mower proof. They will simply be spat out by the lawn mower with minimal damage to them and none to your lawn mower. Twisty Pegs come with a lifetime guarantee.
£10 for a tube of 40

The Holy Trinity: Perfumes Made by Monks

The rarefied aura that surrounds fragrance dates back to the remotest times of antiquity, when incense and fragrant oils would be offered up to the gods and deities of the ancient world. The Arab world is credited with introducing modern perfumery to the West, having preserved the ancient arts of distillation, evaporation, and filtration that had been lost to Christian society, and in turn heralding great advancements not only in the field of fragrance but of chemistry and science too. In passing this tradition on, Christian monks began to adopt the practice of creating fragrances as an expression of faith, before eventually the art form became available to the wider public, for a price. Today, most perfume is manufactured on a grand commercial scale; a far cry from the artisanal monastic traditions that gave birth to modern fragrance! However, some perfume houses still survive from this bygone age and serve to remind us of our industry’s history while continui

Bâtard Folding Picnic Knife by Lamson & Goodnow

As author of The Best Bread Ever; Charles Van Over is expected to show everywhere up with an armful of bread. Whilst Charles enjoys breaking bread with friends; he does insist that the bread is properly sliced with a breadknife, not just ripped apart. The problem here is that bread knives are very long and with their serrated edges they are not the easiest of things to carry around. Charles wondered why a folding bread knife could not be produced and took his idea for a pocket bread knife to Lamson & Goodnow, American manufacturers of the LamsonSharp range. The Bâtard Folding Picnic knife is the result of this collaboration. At Roullier White we believe this may possibly be the best picnic knife ever made. The French word bâtard – and yes it does translate how you think it does – is a shorter and thicker type of baguette. The knife, of course, will cut everything including cheese, fruit, vegetables and as you cannot have a picnic without wine it also has an integral corkscrew. Rou
