    It's true.
    I always rush over to the bath bomb section and exclaim loudly:

    "Oh Fabulosa! Lemon and Papaya Bathbombs! There is a God!"

    I need to introuduce you to him. I would never need to shop for bathroom essentials (bath bombs) EVER again !!!!!!

    But i agree with the OP, the body shop hasn't been the same for years. They closed down the one in Blackpool, then re-opened it 2 years later with sullen staff and no regard for the origonal body shop formula.

    I know - I think I was in a particularly bad mood when I spoke to her that day! It was just that it was obviously scripted, in which case, it should be correct. I realise I was being a bit of a pain in the behind though!
    Overpay!

    So were they though. These days, shops save money buy employing youths to work for peanuts and you know what they say:

    If you pay peanuts, you attract monkeys!
