Apparently www.detergentinfo.com gives an exact list of ingredients if you
enter a barcode. Saw it on a bottle of Tesco own label toilet cleaner

Just tried it with Mr Muscle and a No Nonsense glass cleaner & it couldn't
find the barcode. Tried Tesco washing up liquid & it found it.

Don't know if it only works with own brands or not.

Anyone else like to try (getting funny looks from SWMBO)

Waitrose laundry tablets yes (5 000169 789230)
The above formulation is for products manufactured between the following dates
17/12/2009 - Present Day

which as the old and new box have the same barcode dosn't quite answer
my curiosity re why as the old box was 48x35g tablets and the new larger
box is only 48x30g am I getting a new formula or short measure.

Any wording relating to a change between the new and old? Just "New"
could relate to the new tablet size. "New Formula" would have to
relate to the formulation of the product.

I don't have any own brand studd to try, but you can find out who owns a
particular bar code by using the search engine here

http://gepir.gs1.org/v31/xx/gtin.aspx?Lang=en-US

The GTIN is 14 digits long, while UK retail barcodes are EAN13, so you
need to add a zero before the bar code.

I know we took the RAE in December 1965, but when did you get your
half-licence?


Do you ever hear from G8AQU? Or Ray Parkinson?

I did get an email from John(nie) in Rhodesia a few years ago, but
nothing lately. Perhaps he's now SK...It does happen now and again to
us OTs.

Do you still have that flagpole/ærial mast from G6TR, which we
manhandled from Seaburn to your QTH?

To keep on topic - er, well... That's it - 'flagpole' sort of rhymes
with 'Teepol'. :-)
