Hi Poohspals.

Dooyoo is a review site. Say you wanted to buy a washing machine, and you didn't know which one to buy. You read reviews from other people who have had them, don't you? I Know I do.

Anyway - you get paid for writing them. You get more money for writing about about electrical items, DVD players, food processors, earphones etc. You get more money for each rate it gets too (when another member reads it).This is level 1.

Cosmetics, Perfumes, toys etc are in Level 2, and food etc (that you don't tend to read review on, you just buy it) is in level 3.

Read through the post I did on Saturday with all the details on how to structure your review - write it in word, must be over 150 words and definatley spell check. If there's something not on the site that you want to write about, you make a product suggestion - it's all quite easy and striaghtforward. It's just like Toluna really. It's just that they are a bit stricter. If your review isn't up to stratch, it may be locked, and you will have to rewrite it out, before they will pay you.

Just sign up Poohspals and check up out, - I did look ysterday, but I don't think they have a rerefal section. If you go into community at the top, and member search on the left - ALL the members in my circle of friends are MSE'ers off this board.

Thanks Susie for offering to compile a list, but they can all search through me and find them - there was a lot of trouble last year when we tried to compile a list, so doing it this way is easier for everyone.

Candie-Gill - welcome back hun - don't leave it so long next time . You are welcome to post anytime, you know. We're all like best friends and have a natter most of the time.

Nicolaxx74 and Missus - Welcome to the thread ladies. You are both doing fantastically well. Well done to you both. I'm so pleased.

Stressed - like I said in pm - please don't read and go, join in. We love having you here. Hopefully we help you, and you definately help us - we're friends. Please pop by, if only to say hello.

So sorry Poohs - I have to write things down while I remember (it's my age you know ). Brilliant totals hun. FAB.
BP - vouchers - they wouldn't have let you redeem if you hadn't played enough, I should pop them a message to see where you voucher is.

Sorry I was quiet on Bp I was trying to sort out DD on computer again - she's just started playing Island Paradise on Facebook, and she kept wanting me to send her stuff, and adopt her baby seagulls. Bless. I did notice I won two lines though. Definately a redeem again for me this week.

Doo-vous is basically on online review site, where if you write a review within certain categories that are over 150 words you can earn points, and points mean prizes! (well Amazon vouchers anyway!!) For every read of your review you also get points, so it is in some sense like 2lna where your Dooo-vous friends can see the reviews you've written and go and read them. The categories are set by DYoo. You need 20 000 points to get a voucher worth £20 (or cheque). More info on the categories here. Elysia has got quite a few of us in her 'circle of friends', so it is a bit like 2lna where you can follow people. I am by far an expert!!!

Hi all rash is something called urticaria~? Like a stinging nettle rash but caused by allergy or change in room temp anything really! Think its just a name for a rash they cant explain! Gave me som medicine like piriton but the nhs version! Got home after buying bananas for DS to take to 'school' and was getting DS ready and brushed his hair, which is a nightmare due to it being very curly, so screams and tears! Then rash came out again! So called creche told them not to pick him up! Then rash disappears! Apparently can inflame when stressed! So due to me brushing his hair! Grrrr!

Oh well at least we have medicine and hopefully I can sleep tonight!

Hi Legend. My 4 year old often has bouts of urticaria. He is a very stressed little boy has asthma, excema, eating disorder. If he has to do something he does not want to do he gets himself worked up and comes out in a rash.

As soon as he calms himself he goes, he now knows that being stressed will cause it and makes sure it happens when he is adamant he is not doing something. He has had it for around 6 months now and it does gradually ease.

Is your son finding it painful at all? x

Legendmum

Thanks Sam! No he doesnt find it painful or itchy just very hot. Quite good that it doesn't affect him but it does look awful as its on his face!

legend I find that piriton works quickly so fingers crossed you will get a good night's sleep

I've found children get apprehensive over such minor things. For your ds brushing his hair is possibly one of them. It does get alot milder and not break out as often as time goes on.

I have found that if i make things less stressed for my 4 year old it is easier. He manages to keep him self stress free if he has some control over what is happening, iykwim? x

Legendmum

Yes thanks Sam DS does hate having his hair brushed! If you look at my link for facebook you can see the pics, mainly of him, and the dreaded hair! I have tried everything! I own every detangling spray going and he has his own special conditioner and spray in conditioner too! More hair products than me! lol
