    Karma....it always is worth it IMO..hoping to get some of that myself this weekend.

    No, no problem for the intruder and I think the word has got about. Marked decrease in people pulling over into our drive too.

    Dog dog, however, is being trouble. The other day had someone from the council here...little man...and he knew it. Goading th dg through the window ..they jumped up and broke the peopogator the toms were in as a result :mad::mad: anyway, got them out and big-dog was fine, but dog dog was a ruddy loon. Kept running by, at good speed, reaching but not getting really near...three feet ish? and snapping her jaws in the general area of his posterior. He was v. nervous. I made gushing apologetic noises....while my tomatoes got their karma in the general direction of the source of many of lir-loon-farm woes!:rotfl:

    tut tut naught Dog Dog :rotfl:.......which breed is Big Dog? Sounds scary to me as I imagine him to be huge with big teeth.

    Were they well behaved with the students?

    its hard to let this persons' appearance, or rather hue, go without a mention...http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/12989963
    Is that a real person? It looks like a man in drag, with big lips photoshopped on.

    Its so sad perfectly fine looking people before they mess. I don't mind people looking weird. I do a fair bit of it myself, but the thing is its very different dying your hair a funny colour for a while, or putting ona weird outfit, another thing totally to be hooked on anti aging injections while under 25. There was a blonde woman who had ruined her lips and I felt so sad for her.

    I admit to loving 'snog, marry, avoid' purely to see what the girls look like covered in clothes instead of slap and how they react. You can see how vulnerable they are, how they judge themselves by what the men on the videos think about them, and then how genuinely surprised at how beautiful they are after the make under. Until the self esteem issues take over again and they come back for the 'what happened next'

    It's such a shame that a lot of people's current perception of beauty looks like that. It's like a special mask you can wear.

    I remember watching one of the first Jordan documentaries and thinking how very beautiful she was without make up. We're the same age and I hadn't really considered Botoxt yet. It's definitely starting but I don't think I need to paralyse my face yet. Not that I would ever be a patch on her natural beauty, and I dress like the lights were off most days, but why she couldn't let that shine instead of actually hiding it. I love girly things but it's just a shame that 'too far' is becoming normal.

    I like people to think I'm clever and stuff, but I can't help liking that sort of TV.

    One thing with Botox to remember is: once you start, you can never stop ... so you have to KNOW you can honestly afford to keep doing it FOR LIFE!

    I worked with somebody who had a freebie ... I couldn't see any difference (she was fat and her brow furrowed). She was totally into looking good, but never managed it..... very shallow she was, drove me nuts to be working alongside her and her client-4rse-licking ways and the way she was impressed by people with more money than her. Loon she was.

    I look a bit like a Wolfhound. Or maybe an Afghan Hound. It depends on whether I've brushed my hair or not.
