    :o Yesterday, but the colour has deepened further today. Think she got the mix wrong :o.
    I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.

    Dear friend hasn't got a clue, she's not a beautician or anything, she just paid £400.00 for a 3 hour training session, and start up kit.

    She was given a plastic tent, and a contraption that is like an electric watering can, and a bottle of brown and white liquid, which she had to mix together to reach the right colour.

    As I was standing there in the buff, with all her family wandering in and out, her cousin phoned up, who had also been on the same course, and asked if dear friend's machine was on fire, as she was currently doing her own 'client' and smoke was filling the room.

    I promise I am not making this up :o. It's dear friend's new business venture.

    I'm with the Black Horse too, every time I go into the branch they keep asking me about upgrading my account or getting a loan. I've been with them since I first started working in 1987.
