    Called in to see my parents and my loving mum managed to spill beetroot juice down my cream trousers :rolleyes: now got to find a way to remove that!
    She's standing there holding the open jar of beetroot towards me while she's watching my niece do something, I'm saying Mum, stop tilting the jar, its coming out..... and she does a slow double take and then tells me I mustn't have been watching what I was doing! :eek: :mad:

    Not sure if this has been answered yet as still PAGES back. Best is to blot it with bread lol, but if they are already in soak then that rules it out.

    Second is to pop some salt in a bucket and disolve(plus borax but hardly a thing most people have now lol)in a bit of boiling water. Then top up with freezing cold water(sparkling bottled is best if you have any) and leave over night.

    If that does not shift it then repeat the above but with washing powder(not liquid) overnight.

    Using a soapy mix straight away will make it worse and make sure water is cold not hot. Do not rub/scrub the stain at all, just wash normally after and maybe popping a bit of 'oxy' type stuff in the wash if the stain has not completely gone, although it should have.

    Always worked for me(chef's whites) in the past :)

    Totally agree with you...have tried every brand from high end ones at hair salons to cheapy ones...it is BRILLIANT. Some leave your hair feeling like you need to get straight back in the shower again, plus it smells nice too! If I even just use when I blow dry I get perfectly straight hair without having to get the straightners out:T

    Same here broclo, I think I've tried them ALL over the years and nothing compares to it. Why is it never on offer or part of any of the hair care glitches though? :rotfl: I sometimes have horrific thoughts that they might discontinue it or something though...... I've been using it for almost 5 years now :eek: couldn't live without it <OTT and a bit dramatic>.
    You can't control everything in life....... your hair was put on your head to remind you of that :p

    I have just filled in the 'what do you think of the new site' survey. One of the options is 'I found it a bit too modern'.

    Oh Please!

    Failing that, leave to soak in a bucket of cold water with a spoonful of Bicarbonate of Soda or Steradent works just as good!
    It`s nice to be important, but its more important to be nice.

    Forgot to add that they had plenty of mags,

    TS LH serum(pink)
    JK nail files
    R & M brushes, sponges etc,
    Sanctuary bits to get with Pinkies
    Time Delay items reduced due to changing packaging and of course the Lynx 3.

    Also, loads of No7 GWP (didn't notice any MF,though)

    Sadly, didn't see any Ted Baker bags reduced or otherwise - fancied getting lovely leather one for my 19 year old DS who has Cystic Fibrosis and has to go in hospital quite often.



    Have seen a couple of the TB leather ones near me. Could get you one if you want? Let me know. x
