Is a detergent, used in Europe.
One of the things I heard was that it was used my military wives to put up as a signal meaning on my own.
There are quite a few militaries here and wondered if this was actually the case and is it quite common.
anyone used it?

If memory serves me right, it was almost removed from the shelves in France when Aids started being known as an illness with all the stigma attached to it....in my country HOMO (you do not pronounce the H) is used to as a contraction of the word Homosexual. Why anyone would connect a washing powder to a leathal decease is beyond me...but fear makes people do and say some very stupid things. I am only relating what I believe to be a fact, not expressing an opinion on homsexuals.
OP, I was never in the army so I never used it in that way. |

ARRSE has a few threads on this.
This is a paste job from it
A box of OMO washing powder left on a kitchen windowsill in days gone by apparently signified 'Old Man Out' as an invitation for a bit of extra. |
