I'm still waiting for someone to say that they don't use correction fluid because they don't make mistakes.

I thought I made a mistake once, but I was wrong.

I'm glad you weren't right about that? Who wants to spoil a perfect record?

I have some, but I can't think of the last time I used it. I know I really appreciated it a while ago, when I transcribed the rules of a board game onto the actual board itself which we had scaled up and reconstructed in painted wood. The Tippex came in a little pen and was perfect for writing with.
That was seven years ago.

It's been longer than that since I used any.

I just saw the bottle of Tipp-Ex on my desk is labelled with a HUGE warning triangle and there are warnings for it being: Highly Flammable Irritant Dangerous for the Environment
That's not persuading me to use it more often...
(I'm also quite amused that my Pritt-Stick has a 'Wash at 30' label. I wonder how many Pritt-sticks are put in a washing machine
)

Does that mean washing it when it has its 30th birthday?

I had a wash on MY 30th birthday. Must be due another one fairly soon.

Curiously my Pritt Stick at home says 'Wash at 20'.
I wonder if you can get a Pritt Stick to dry itself off with?

I dry clean mine. Expensive but it's as good as new.

I'm not going to ask whether it's the towel you dry-clean, or the pritt stick.

Come to think of it, I haven't used Pritt-Stick in a long time either.

The Pritt stick is another essential item of stationery for Listener Crossword solvers. On more than one occasion, the puzzle has directed me to cut up the finished grid and stick it in a rearranged form on a piece of paper before submitting it.

My Pritt Stick is labelled '90% Renewable Ingredients' so I hope you scoop up the glue you've used after you're finished and put it back in the roll.

The label on my correction fluid says shake before use.
I did and my glasses fell off and I got a headache.
Not doing that again.

My Tipp-Ex clogged up, and it advised me 'stand in hot water' ...
