    HAPPY BIRTHDAY VALM:bdaycake:


    Unfortunately the bridesmaid gift idea is a no-no as I'm only going to have my girls, lol!

    Thank you for the birthday wishes. Never mind re: bridesmaids but you could still give some of those bottles to teachers as gifts at Christmas. x
    :bdaycake::bdaycake: HAPPY BIRTHDAY VAL :bdaycake::bdaycake:

    I know of five people with birthdays today, but you are the only 'Val' . :D

    Enjoy all your Ins!

    Thank you. I know of another person who shares my birthday. She is not called "Val" either. Have you spotted the connection? Yes, I was called Valerie as I was born on Valentines Day. x

    VALM - Have a great birthday and enjoy your lovely pressies:D

    I too, have received the advance notification on the Elemis, but don't need anything at all in this set, so am going to be good (I hope).

    PIXTOTTS and ROSEMARY - I live not too far from Worcester and have been thinking of your friends and family while watching the local news, I hope that everyone is able to stay safe and dry, extended to include everyone wherever they live obviously:D:D

    I should have a couple of UU's soon and have resisted all freebies

    I don't NEED anything from the Elemis kit either but doesn't stop me WANTING it. Feel like the old QVC addiction is coming back. Oh dear.

    I second maddiemay's well wishes to those in flooded areas. The wind was really bad again about mid afternoon here so glad I don't have to go out tonight.

  • A couple of unexpected OUTs today...nice Valentine's present. Tee hee.

    39 - Sure compressed deo spray - I already have another in the stash...nearly at the end of this pile though.
    40 - L'Occitane sensitive scalf conditioner - gorgeous, as all L'occitane hair things are. The mister likes this too. WBA if it was on offer.

    Right, off to put a dress on for Valentine's. We usually stay in in our PJs and have take out, but this year we're going to a supper club. I did get a pressie for the mister though, a pie selection box! Lol.
    Cookie, I think you're tame. :heart2:

    Lovely gift. Where did you get that from?

    Have been over to look at shoppingtelly.com and the forumites there are reporting that the Elemis TSV is going to be £62.00 plus p&p. Eeep I think I'll be giving it a miss !!

    BF collected the l'occtaine hand creams :) for me. I know other people have said but they are small tubes, but still good for a freebie :D Not sure what to do with the pouch, seems a shame to throw it out but it'll end up being something else that I've kept and will clutter up my house :o

    I saw on f/b that there's a handcream amnesty, I think with Crabtree & Evelyn. I wonder if I could use up one of the small l'occtaine tubes and swap, or is that just a bit cheeky ;)
    Life is a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.
    Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.
    Take time but don't waste time
