  • Good luck ALJA, and fingers crossed LadyM.

    One more UU:
    417 dead sea cosmetics foot and nail cream. WIBA? Wouldn't buy the over expensive nail kit again, but I did enjoy using the creams.

    Lady M - congrats! :j

    ALJA - How did it go?

    Trudji - Those pics of Red are FAB!

    Sawan - I can't really give you any advice as I'm always being told I'm boring because I never go anywhere and I hate spending on money on things if I don't enjoy it :( And the fact that I know I can't really afford it always makes me feel that it had better be worth every penny otherwise I've wasted my hard-earned cash (well OH's :p)

    I'm not helping am I? Sorry :o:(

    :j:j:j Lady M, that's brilliant, you'll be in your own home and not have to move outside your home patch either. Wonderful. Parental support at hand if needed, (hopefully!!) but not breathing down your neck.

    It must be the day for good news on the housing front - my friend has sold her house, it's been on and off the market for a good few years. It's a two bed good sized modern terrace, like so many properties, it's been bought to let.

    However, the buyer is my friend's next door neighbour's brother, so he will be super-keen to get really good tenants in. I'm pleased on this front, as this is a good area and we've previously had some real problems with anti-social behaviour from tenants in newly let private rents.

    Couple of non bought in's... some body butter - c 2x 75 ml - to home test for a major supermarket chain and a 10ml Herbal Essences Hello Hydration shampoo/conditioner. This one is coconut & orchid scented.
    The cracked heel cream from the poundshop is called Escenti, first impressions are that it is very runny for a cream, really more of a thick lotion. Rubbed in well though.
