    That is an absolutlely brilliant brainwave re Body Shop, never of thought of that, the trouble is you feel obliged to order stuff, and 1 bottle of shower gel at £6 just doesn't look enuf.....

    Well done BTD on keeping on and bad luck with the car, but you took it so well - I'd have been in pieces. I hate cars - had a puncture myself today. And thanks for considering me to be in your life - it's an honour and a pleasure.
