My CTF is sarah*a.

Have to ask, did you steal Jimmy Saville's pen?

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

No I didn't :rotfl: If the lazy soandso had bothered to get out of his car instead of lording it like King Muck he'd have seen that he'd dropped it in the mud himself - rather than accusing me of stealing it when I tried to hand it back He did apologise (sort of) and I got a huge stack of signed photo's that the school used for raffle prizes. (This was when Jim'll Fix It and those safety ads he did were still massively popular )

I have loads more tenuous CTF's :rotfl: The bloke who did the voiceover for Big Brother (Marcus Bently), Liz Carling (played Selena in Casualty) and James Gaddas (played Vinny the Barman in Corrie) all went to my college and we did a charity gala together - and Mark Benton (you'll probably recognise the face if not the name) directed me in 'The Taming of the Shrew'. A girl who was one of my closest schoolfriends is a Commissioning Editor for Drama and Film for Channel 4 (I 'introduced her' to her first boyfriend - Biatch :rotfl:)

...and I used to 'date' and was (very briefly) in a band with Roy Chubby Brown's nephew

On topic: One UU:
FCUK Body Butter: WIBA? Probably - it's lovely and thick and has a very light citrussy smell - which I usually don't like but this was OK, not too overpowering

Good Luck Charlie - Hope the exam went ok?

Quite proud of myself today, I went to town and into Boots and only bought a sandwich!! Also went in the £shop and got a bottle of Aloe body lotion for DS as he asked to borrow some and I only have "girly" ones. He suffers with dry skin on his limbs, but its better than the excema he had till he left school:( That was definitely stress related!

UU Naked Richness Revealed conditioner yesterday. WBA, nearly did in fact but I have a couple I should finish up first. The shampoo is on its last legs too, and I also have some in the stash (only one I think).

Happy belated Birthday And.

Hope your exam went well Charlie.

Don't even get me started on men not wearing wedding rings :mad: Thats why I'm still a Miss, not a Mrs!

My ex- H was in the Armed Forces. There were some horrible accidents where guys caught rings on equipment, happened to a friend of ours, so rings - inc. wedding - weren't usually worn. This was really convenient for him! He was an awful philanderer - he wasn't the marrying kind, really... *

After we split up I was in Germany for a while and worked pt. One month I sold my wedding ring the day before pay day - I seem to remember we needed dog food!

*Now on marriage no 3 as far as I know.

Got my first voucher for doing surveys today, £10 Boots voucher, it had to be didn't it really, I will save it for a while, maybe get another one and buy some Cerruti 1881, haven't worn this for years but smelt it on someone recently which reminded me how much I like it.

No more uu's yet but should have quite a few by the end of the month, should def outweigh my ins. On that topic two more itty bitty in's to report -

Sanctuary mini body butter and mini body lotion, I already have some of these in the stash:o but really love them and they were only 50p each in the charity shop, they had the scrub too but I left that, have enough scrubs and when I have used them will start using scrubby gloves regularly and maybe just have one scrub for a change.

Had an NPI earlier

Went to Boots to get my prescription filled and they had Time Delay Day Cream on clearance at £7. Picked up - put back - may go back tomorrow and see if I can use a skinny and 200 point voucher to get it but have a feeling the SA won't be helpful

Did pick up some nicotine gum on clearance - £1 for 105. Hope they help

I don't wear my wedding ring - or engagement ring - don't even know where they are They weren't expensive - about £30 for both and they hurt my fingers which is why I stopped wearing them. OH wears his though I do want to find them as they are engraved but I think they are in a box buried deep in the under-stairs cupboard :rotfl:

Got an unintentional in...

I was sorting through some stuff my mum bought back from my nan's and found a body lotion! No idea how old it is but I should be alright using it on my legs or something.

One UU for me today - L'Occitane Vanilla Shower Gel. WIBA? - probably not as I'm not a great lover of vanilla, but was pleasant enough to use.

This challenege is focusing me on using my products more which is good as I can be a bit lazy when it comes to exfoliating and moisturising my body.:D
