Oh wow - fantastic! LOVE the outfit Nice to see the famous buddleia too, and I think you've got the same kitchen worktops as us :rotfl:

Thought you might like to see the buddleia too! :rotfl: I really like the worktops, but they're not quite as practical as I thought they'd be (this translates to = I'm a !!!!!! at cleaning, and with these colour worktops, I can't see the dirt, so it accumulates rather :rotfl:)

Ellidee, how interesting! I've heard of the dressings recently, but reversal of antibiotic resistance sounds really important - my partner is currently on a 3 month dose of *heavy* antibiotics, I must tell him about that.

Love the outfit KC.

Have long been a fan of manuka honey, use it a lot and especially when ill. I have also used it a lot on my animals when they have cuts or wounds. I just spread it on the wound. I always thought that the licking off was what made them better though.Interesting re the superbug effects. My Mum ended up with CDiff when she was in hospital and it was not nice.

Manuka honey was the only thing that helped when I got an ulcerated insect bite on my leg

Thanks for the outfit comments, folks! I've found the remote clicker on my camera (and I even have a tiny little tripod ) so if I manage to get round to a dress rehearsal, I'll give it a go

I forgot to say with manuka, I use it all the time now - I soak my oats in hot water for an hour or so, then have a dessertspoonful of manuka (with lots of healthy seeds, plus cornflakes). Its one of the things that I started to do again after I was so ill last winter...

Love the laptop bag, it will be so practical.

Dress is so stylish, I'd forgotten what it was like. Photo of fascinator?

Agree re: the worktops, mine are black marble effect and I often 'clean' them, and then realise I've missed bits because I can't see the muck!

The postman had put it by the back door (which worried me, as its behind a locked garden door :mad:) and I hadn't found it at that stage. I'll do it later today if I can.

I can't tell you how relieved I am that somebody else knows what this is like!

What am I doing today? The outstanding complaints work I have is piling up again. Some French bills need to be paid. I've got the food processor, and now need to find an instruction leaflet so I can figure out how to use it. The printer still hasn't been unpacked. Yesterday, I popped into Sainsbo after the fruitless trip to the PO to find the fascinator that was actually sitting on my back step, and bought the lightpull I've been looking for for ages - I love the shape of it, v classic, I bought it out of my monthly spends, tho heaven only knows what they are, so that needs to be attached, and I bet thats one of those jobs that takes much longer than you'd think.

Plus I have 3 hours paid work. Quite a bit to be getting on with.
