            thanks again
 went and emailed 7 companies and already have 3 promising samples
 yves rocher has promised some samples( used an edited version of your template so thanks ), what are their products like? not that it matters looking forward to trying them anyway Emails ,Iv never yet sent a letter .... my handwriting is terrible due to muscle damage ,so I type everything . Emails also (to me) mean they can reply quicker ,most within 2 days . But you have now made me wonder if they would be just as generous with a written letter ?!

 And they called me 'Mr Kyle', I wrote 'And Mr Kyle isn't my name'
