    I got a lovely lippy from Eve the other month worth £8.50. So nice I went and bought one in a different colour.

    99.9% of items from the "innovations" catalogue Do we really need gravestone polish? A singing birdtable? A Clock in the shape of a toilet? Really?

    I lived in a village in West Africa for a while. When I showed them a book of 'inovations' they almost died of laughter at us stupid 'whites'.

    The best one was a cat basket you hung on the radiator to keep the moggy warm..

    Izal is the tough, tracing-paper type toilet 'tissue' they used in school. I was amazed to see our local chemist selling it recently - I imagined the NSPCC had gotten the stuff abolished years ago.
    Eek! Someone's stolen my signature! :eek:

    ooooh, I thought of another:

    SPF 2 Suncream - Why bother? - stay out an additional nano-second in the sun!

    Pop socksSmelly feet PLUS the added bonus of utter humiliation should anyone find out you are wearing them!
