    oooh lynz, let me know how you get on at the Strawberry Fair.

    I come from Cambridge but haven't been back to the fair for absolutely YEARS so I would be interested to know how much it has come along.

    Have fun!

    Some supermarkets stock it along with Cif etc. But I got mine from a Discount Warehouse. So just have a bit of a trawl about. Well worth it when you get it. Lovely stuff and eco friendly too.

    lynz, i'm glad the hotel finally gave you back your money that they shouldn't have taken in the first place. that means you're not on such a tight budget now, i suspect. hope you enjoyed the comedy show. let me know all about it.
