No Buying Toiletries in March Challenge

Im liking the sound of these crackle nail varnishes - when Ive paid the stud, I may have to treat myself....

OBVIOUSLY to a colour that I dont have already, thus avoiding the naughty step...

on a lesser level - I have a dilemma ladies - I have a lad chasing me who is very keen.... Ive usually been out with younger men, and find them way more fun and less baggaged than older men or men my own age.... but at 37, should I really be seeing someone who is 25??? Its not like hes a teenager or anything - and he doesnt care at all..... (hes lovely, and looks after one of the horses running at Cheltenham tomorrow - so eeeek and keep everything crossed for him !!)

You know those tablets you give to people and how you probably tell them not to take the whole box all at once........that's how perfume works too:rotfl:As in how on earth did you use up 3 bottles so quickly

you know how you plaster yourself with them to make them finish quicker?!

the avon one from ebay was rubbish and on its last legs

the Ck eternity is the staple one i use for work

the body shop musk must be nearly as old as me

trudij-go for it, don't live a life of regrets and all the best!

anyone want to hear a funny story that happened to me at the weekend??

i've been totally spooked since

i had a bit of a row (noting new there) with my other half and went to bed, (he'd been noseying through my lloyds stash!)

i was asleep and woke up to see a ghostly white figure glowing at the end of my bed

i thought i must be dreaming or it was a shadow so ignored it but then it started moving towards me, :eek::eek::eek:NOW I WAS FREAKED!ing reciting prayers in a really loud voice screaming get away. Anway this white figure came right up to me, I thought at this point i was going to die and this was the angel of death (i'm quite religious)

All I could think of was I can't die now, eveyone will find my shopping stashes, how embarrassing will that be? I need to sell/get rid of them first!!!

When I was near hysterical just reciting the same prayer over and over again it eventually spoke, "its me darling!!" then the "glow" shined in my face , it was my husband and his iphone (he puts it on when coming up to bed after a late night so he doesn't trip)

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I could have killed him!!

In the aftermath he says he couldn't make out what i was saying and thought i was telling him to get out to sleep in the spare room (because of the row thats why he didn't say anything to begin with)

I didnot sleep a wink that night and my daughter has been sleeping in my bed since he left for work yesterday!!!

Been away for the weekend, wow so many posts!

Celebrate, EssexHebridean, Sarah*a (and anyone who I might have missed!) thanks for asking about my friend. One of her friends posted a message on Facebook to say that she's safe, as is her dad, but her mum and grandparents are missing and her town is completely destroyed Wish there was something I could do but don't suppose there is, not over here.

Glad your sister's okay Mcculloch29 :j, that's great news.

Lemon Tree, I don't think I've washed a hairbrush in my life I used to pull all the hairs off mine each time I used it, but my mam got annoyed at me leaving my hair all over the floor, so I stopped. I should probably wash them at some point - it's one way to use up the shampoo!

Hope you had a great holiday Rosemary54.

I was hoping you lot would say what I was thinking.... mind you - my theory of "give it a go" has been known to get me in trouble

that is HILLARIOUS celebrate - bet you were terrified first of all :rotfl:

Celebrate - that must've been terrifying at the time, but I'm sorry I've been :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: since reading it!!


Trudj - take no notice what others may think of the age difference, if you like him - give him a chance

Absinthe_Fairy

trudij, you should totally go for it. If it was the other way round and you were younger than him no one would bat an eyelid. Why not this way?

I had not washed this hairbrush before, i think i tried with one before and i felt it ruined it, but i do clean the hair out often (tend to put it out the window for the birds). The brush was perfectly fine after it's bath but it was the water i was left with which was scary, and i don't even use the dry shampoo stuff or any hair products other than shampoo and conditioner.
