    OMG DS3 has been accused of plararism by his uni(he is just about to finish there)his crime is not putting quotation marks in when he copies a text even tho he has referenced the work and has been doing this since he started 3 years ago and nothing has ever been said!I am so angry about it ,he has to go to a committee hearing and we are not allowed to go and support him,he could be marked down or even fail to get his degree:mad:to my mind his tutors are at fault for not noticing there was a problem over the last 3 years.will keep you all posted.

    That's horrible Rosemary. I agree the tutors are at fault for not noticing sooner and getting your DS to add the quotation marks in. Fingers crossed the committee listen to sense x

    I've not read the thread so far but I need to rant- please forgive me!

    I've had a shower trying to relax because I have an exam tomorrow at 9am. I come out to find the whole world and their dog are in my flat- one of my flat mates has organised our place as they pre drinking destination despite knowing I have an exam! I'm fuming- no respect at all!

    ope you've all had a pleasant evening xx

    A few uu to report:

    Elizabeth Arden All Gone Eyes & Lips make up remover
    -WBA but only if on offer as can't afford 16.00 per bottle although it is v good stuff!

    Next Diamonds perfume-definitely WNBA- I don't care what anyone says... this is not a version of Miss Dior- its carp

    2 ins to declare, actually 3:
    Superdrug Essentials Eye Make up remover(bought to replace above uu) but it is rubbish-does not remove any eye makeup at all! Can I take this back as it is a SD own brand?

    So to replace this have bought 2x L'oreal dermo expertise triple active cleansing milk (4.18 each or 2 for 4.00 at mr t!)

    Hope everybody is well... bank hol coming up.

    Got my mum in for pre op next week then she has her mastectomy the week after... am starting to get a bit anxious for her now...

    But got to remember for her sake PMA :)

    I have some UUs, INs and Splutterers (posting after a long time so there are a fair few)

    UU


    • Lush Honey I washed the kids soap - May buy again. It's very moisturising but dissolves really fast so not MSE
    • Lush 13 Unlucky soap - Same a above
    • Lush Ice Blue Soap - Was very drying and the smell is masculine so WNBA though still have 1-2 more in the stash
    • Lush Porridge Soap - WNBA - Even though it's moisturising and smells nice, it clogs the drains. Still have one to go
    • Lush Happy Hippy shower gel- WNBA - very drying for my skin but my friend loves it as she has pretty oily skin
    • Homemade Lush shower jelly concoction - Will make again to uu the lush shower jellies I have as it goes well with the exfoliating gloves
    • Tresemme Hair Mask - Full of cones I think it is so WNBA

    Splutterers

    • BS Mango body lotion - It was about to finish but I seem to have lost it somewhere, need to find it to finish it off. As with all other TBS stuff, it smells chemically so WNBA
    • Lush American Cream Conditioner - Probably just have one or two uses left. It was very good to start with but seems to have lost its effectiveness now. This time I will try the triple strength conditioner they have
    • Lush Fresh Farmacy – Another one or two applications left. Good for summer but a bit drying for winter so will buy again next year when I have used up all the facial cleanser stash
    • Lush Ocean Salt – Again one or two applications left. It's alright but too creamy for my liking so WNBA
    INs

    • Boots Curl cream: Haven't tried it yet so don't know how it would be but the reviews are good and it's pretty cheap
    • Sally Hansen: Miracle cure nail strengthener: Was only £1 in argos so couldn't resist :o. In my defence, it can be used as a base coat and I didn't have any basecoat
    • Fullers Earth face mask powder : A new range in Tesco so bought to try as didn't have any face masks in the stash. Will let you know how I get on
    • Montagne Jeunesse microdembration face masks from £world: They were 3 for £1 and one pack is enough for 2-3 applications. Have used it twice and even though they are not the best, I still like them
    • Ambre Solaire SPF20 and SPF50 suncreams - Just normal sun blocks - got them from Tesco DTD for a penny each
    Will post the updated stash list in the next post
