I don't use flux when soldering and I'm wondering whether I should be?!
I think when I first learnt I had some solder with flux in it? But I'm not sure I do now ...

Your solder may have a rosin core, so you wont need extra flux. Get some cheap solder and try it out and you should see the difference.
