    Would you buy clothes on ebay (for me, not H) from someone who is a smoker? The smokey smell would wash out, non?


    personally, no. my dad smoked and even after washing when you opened his wardrobe you could still smell smoke.
    yuk.

    think if its clothes a smoker wears its very hard to get the smell of smoke out, but if you are just around someone smoking (like in a pub before the ban) the smell washes out easier.

    I'm gutted to report that almost 18000 situps haven't made the mumtum any smaller, although the abs underneath it feel awesome, if only you could see them.

    Maybe if you updated your sig they would all suddenly take effect? ;)

    very nice Beenie...the charity shops around here are pap and never have any baby stuff.

    Aless, we've found ok stuff off and on in the Fara Kids shop on Garratt Lane near Earlsfield, if that's of any interest at all.

    Evening all, hope people have had mostly nice days.

    I am wrestling with whether to hire a car for our Cornwall trip or to rely on my ageing but trusty Daewoo Lanos for the journey. A hire car would definitely make it feel more of a holiday :p and I think I get 20% off at Avis through work, but it would still be a chunk of cash that's unnecessary (unless of course the Daewoo finally surrenders in Cornwall, then it would've been very necessary and I would be kicking myself).

    In other news, I built that sand+water table today and although we have no sand as yet, it was quite a hit with E :) despite the fact that he has a miserable cold and is snotty/raspy/hot-cheeked :( he crashed out good and early tonight and I'm hoping a long night will see him right.

    EA - whats the aftercare for tattoos these days?
    I rubbed Sudocreme in mine 10 years ago but wondered what the current recommendations are?
    Getting them done Thursday and I'm going to cut my nails dead short so I'm not tempted to pick :o
    A very busy Yummy Mummy to a 1 year old gorgeous boy :smileyhea

    Where does the time go? :think:

    Bepanthan :D

    After the tattoo is done, keep is covered for 1 hour then go home and wash it with warm soapy water.
    Rub a thin (but not to thin) layer of bepanthan on and let it air.

    Try not to pick (i did though :p i just cant resist!) and keep with the bepanthan until you feel you no longer need it.
    Or forget to do it (like i did haha)

    Wat you having done? :D
