~I should think it easier to remove the grandson! what a little so and so!
Sorry - I have no advice for removing biro... maybe if its bad you could claim on home insurance??

I got biro on my cream leather sofa, 'Astonish' paste (I got it from John Lewis) took it straight out without damaging the leather.

try a baby wetwipe. test it on a hidden area first though.

Spray some hairspray on it and it will rub off,.

That hairspray is a good one, I used it on my beanbag and it came right out. x

Lilacben and cab are right - it's cheap, quick - and it works. Just use a damp cloth afterwards, and rub gently.
