The women at work love these and bring in the mini ones that are stawberry and banana flavoured. I can rememer my mate Dad eating the original mlt loaf with a slab of butter as thick as the slicev of loaf he cut on top!

Following a discussion on FB among expats, I bought a 4 pack of Soreen Malt Loaves on Amazon.

The questionable:
Shrinkflation, the damn things are barely bigger than a Mars bar.

Ordered from Giff Gaff Sat night, arrived 11am this morning. The boy will be even happier as he'll get the new iPhone now.

Further testing required to confirm I've bought a load of shit off Temu, again.

Dodgy69 wrote: Mon Feb 02, 2026 3:41 pm Well, the Temu cordless power washer has arrived. I charged the batteries and tested on a push bike. It has 2 different nozzles, spray and jet you might call it.

It does clean but like all pressure washers without soap, it dries and looks no better ( tested on wife's car ).It's not too powerful which is what I wanted and you just chuck the hose filter end in a bucket of water butt water, one of those 20L containers would be ideal, just like the one I threw out a few weeks back.

If you remove the filter on the pick up tube it opens up the possibility of free petrol...

I was going to order that one first. Glad i never now, My £19.99 cheap shit has a twist nozzle with four or five spray settings, bit like a garden trigger hose. It also came with the little clip in bottle for soap/detergent.

On initial prime I found i sometimes had to lower gun to bucket level, once primed it worked. I've shortened the tube but makes no difference, it's like the suction isn't quite there.

This short film production had the jet nozzle attached as the fan/ spray would have less force on contact. It did clean off the water butt, but thats about it. I'm thinking its probably ok for what I paid £16, I will see how it does on a muddy bike soon enough.

I'll give it 6 out of 10. Just, well maybe 5.
