    Oh thank god for that, I got BNP too and was afraid to admit it! No way i'd vote for them. This is the first election i've taken any interes in as i've always felt overwhelmed by the many issues and i'm still confused as to how i'm supposed to choose when you're forever hearing how they've lied or failed to carry out something they promised? Meh. I want Jo for my mum too! Although i think we're roughly the same age...
    I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick @ss.... and I'm all out of bubblegum.

    Its not red anymore!! it was dyed red, but was growing out so used that new Colour b4 colour remover on it yesterday-it removes permanent dye but leaves you a bit ginger as the red dye lightens your hair a bit, so I've just put a semi permanent brown on it to hide the grey bits! I do have reddish tinge to my hair naturally but am not a proper redhead...curious about the market research tho??!!

    That votechecker this annoys me...bloody BNP??!!! I used to work with someone who voted for them..he was the biggest ignorant racist going -in fact when i started work there I had him going for nearly a month pretending that my OH was black just to wind him up..it built up so my OH was supposedly a cross between Will Smith and Tyson (the model not the boxer) It got to the point where i was getting quite dissapointed to come home to 'proper' OH at night!!

    oh Mabel, you do make me giggle!!

    I'm thinking about stocking hairdye... you know, pink purple, green etc... I wondered if you were a red or a ginger before and what dye you used.

    Mambury 40 isn't so bad but I just don't feel good about it. Its not actually being 40 . I think thats just something to hang it on its more that I used to look young for my age. Dh is 6 years younger than me and people used to think he was older than me. now I look at least my age and feel fat and frumpy all of a sudden.
    Think my lifestyle and outlook changed very quickly and I haven't quite caught up with myself - it still doesn't feel like me in the mirror. I think I just keep ignoring my feelings about it and now I need to do something to feel better about it.

    Ahhh I see! I used to use hair dye from that stall in Green Lanes-you know the one inside the entrance-think it's called Rainbow? The dye was in little tubs and it was brill,really easy to use and you got loads in a tub-cant' remember the brand tho :-(

    I want to get some hair colour stuff just to do some fun things with the kids (and me). but it needs to wash out again really quickly. not sure we will do it but was thinking about it yesterday. want stuff thats kind to hair/skin as well if there is such stuff.
