Everyday Survival Guide

There are survival guides for everything from bushwhacking to getting through your menopause, with several to choose from to boot. But there's nothing that tells you how to cope with everyday life and everyday things. Most of us know exactly how to work a computer, we can download personalized ringtones on our snazzy mobile phones and search the Net for any conceivable thing. But do we know what to do if we're suddenly faced with a load of washing and we don't want the whites turning a lighter shade of pale, or want a soft boiled egg just like Mom used to make them, or have to move home on the smallest of budgets so it has to be a DIY affair, or have to change the wheel in the middle of nowhere with no help in sight? This title tells you everything you ever need to know to make it on your own - from finding the perfect pot for your kitchen to making the best omelette ever to dealing with a cold sore and fitting a new plug to your kettle after fixing yourself the perfect Martini.
