Handfull of gravel, some fairy soapy water & a 10 minute shake will clear it.

What about dishwasher cleaner ? Mix some up half fill plug the holes and give it a shake about leave for a while and repeat.

As for Menopausal new species D Sport you havn;t found one they stay like that for a while (10 may be 15 years) then mellow, or perhaps you get used to it.

Hi GreyDog,
Re menopausal women...... Yeah, I wondered that.
Life is going to take a turn for being single soon me thinks....
had enough of the moods, bad tempers, verbal assaults, misery, no sleep, the snoring, serious excesses of wine & more resulting vulgarity..

It begs the question of coming out of the closet lol ha ha - (not for me but understandable lol)

I'm gonna come out of the closet .... and into the hallway.. :))
