Yes I'm back !!:j But guess what, the damn car was perfect, the temp gauge stayed where it should of and there was no water leaking out of the bottom. I think someones playing tricks on me ! Mr Pinot is good at all things cars, but unfortunatley rarely here to fix them so it tends to drag on and sometimes I have no choice but to use a mechanic. I am still waiting for him to find time to sort the dishwasher !! That been broken since January I think !!

I like to decant into poshish bottles, I have actually found an old Molton Brown shower gel bottle lurking in the back of the bathroom cabinet today ( lord only knows why I was hanging onto that, memories of days gone by possibly ?! ) so I have decanted the fake MB as well , and I found some matching body lotion as well. It smells slightly odd as I'm sure its been there a while ! As I am so excited about this new find , I checked the price for the Molton Brown ( £18 a bottle ) :eek: and I then googled the name on the newfound bottles and I found loads of info. Its actually A£dis own range and it seems to be that there is lots of it to be found in the A£di stores in Ireland for some reason , everyone was raving about it . Shame Ryana!r dont do those 1p flights anymore to Dublin ! Oh and apparently Thursday is a good day for delivery ! If I find anymore MB bottles, I could always post them to you for you to decant into as well, then we really will be Keeping Up Appearances ! :rotfl:

Weird yet brilliant about the self-mending car, they can be temperamental beasts.

I've just googled the Aldi products too! There was a picture and they actually look very nice in their own bottle - far better than the Boots one I have on show now! They don't look cheap at all. I shall be there on Friday and keep my eye out for them (what a bizarre expression that is!). Thanks for the tip-off x

hey! glad to hear the car is working now my car drives me mad every month something goes wrong...it's about that time now actually so i am just waiting for something to crop up lol!

I've been decanting my shampoo & conditioner & shower gels for years haha. I used to decant them all into clarins cos my bathroom was red, then estee lauder ones, then i had some other brand (can't remember what now lol but twas turquoise) and now i just have a set from matalan that you pour your own stuff in with a stoned effect. I hate shop bottles. look far too untidy for my ocd!

Hiya NL.
Funnily enough my DD2 read about it in a magazine last week and was telling me all about it. I havent had a chance to really look at it, but if Ive got it right they are saying its the next big thing in social networking. Is that right do you think ? Do you use it ? From what I gather you create a pin board of your hopes and dreams for the future. But you arent supposed to create a board based on your life right now and you cant use your own photos or images just the ones on pintrest ? I would be really interested to hear what your thoughts are on it . Hope your day is going well x

I only like posh looking shop bottles. I have had loads of the stoneeffect, china containers over the years but they were constantly getting smashed. I suppose witht he girls older now, it may be worth an investment, but then again I'm quite liking the A£di ones !

Dont you go jinxing your car , I knwo what a nightmare you have with it ! I have driven Mr Pinots today bit have taken alook at mine and there is a puddle of something forming underneath ! :mad:

I really should have kept up those pelvic floor exercises all those years ago , but a chilled glass of the Pinot was much more appealing in my spare time !!
