Oh excellent advice on make up and removers. I need to get some more eye makeup remover, I too was a L@ncome user. I will try the g@rnier one too.

I like clarins and clinique. Right now I am using a lush cleanser I got for christmas, results are fine and I love the aroma! I love their moisturiser sadly I have run out, but I am using up some free samples til my birthday (june 6th not long to wait!)

Thanks everyone for the cleanser recommendations. I can now put them on the wish list for May 29th :-)

I [STRIKE]am[/STRIKE] was a C1inique girl. Trying to eke out the last of everything. I will look out for EH before I run out.

Glad you have been enjoying the good weather.

Hi everyone

Nice to chat about girlie stuff sometimes hey? The b@@ts cleanser is £8.50, looked in store just now. I found the Garni@r one made my eyes sting. I get, sorry got!!, loads of samples from Cl.ins, SBO, find their staff very happy to give out lots of samples so keep on trying them!

So.. Good things this week:

- solar panels are going great guns...over £5 most days! Whoop whoop:T
- beans and pea plants in cold frame springing up well. Friend gave me 24 tomato plants and about the same in broccoli..can't wait for the broccoli to get a little bigger and then will put in the allotment. Very excited. Will have to protect them though otherwise they will be nothing but pigeon food! Love tomatoes as well so very excited!
- bids on ebay stuff...FINALLY!!! Yay
- done TillyTidies every day
- OH getting OT from now pretty much until end of year. It will help
- made rhubarb crumble yest eve but not around to eat it as away..but at least my family get to eat it;)
- running more regularly and feeling very good about it. Will probably do some races this autumn. Ran one at the weekend and felt very comfortable
- good day at work today. Felt proud and inspired too:D

That's it folks. Will now check in with my friends in the box!

I get plenty of samples from Cl@rins too. They go even further when I cut open the plastic tubes, there's always a good few days worth of cream to be had. Have to store them in a plastic bag once cut into to stop them drying out though.

My tomato plants are coming on a treat too as are the chilli plants. This year I'm planting them out in hessian shopping bags!

Well done on the running, I'll be cheering you on in any races you participate in. You will notice that I will not be joining you in the racing.....

Cheers Piq!!

Have been inspired by posts on the forums to try a more veggie diet..wow, a girl called Jack blog seems interesting. Carrot, kidney bean and cumin burgers for tea this weekend it is..9p a burger..what's not to like! We need to cut down on our meat consumption..never used to eat this much and I know it shows in terms of health but also spends..

I am also going to think hard about a spend fast...I think I need a goal and NSDs and LSDs never seem to work for me. Hmm...

Laters folks. Tired and need to sleep! X

Hi Brizzled

Well done on getting back into running. In true MSE style, you could join parkrun, a free, timed, 5k every Saturday morning setting off at 9am. There is one at Ashton Court http://www.parkrun.org.uk/ashton-court/

Painful to wave goodbye to the sunshine. I have a spanish grandad so I tan easily and have been asked if I have been away - no have had a couple of afternoons and a few evenings in a garden in county Durham. Come back soon sunshine, we will miss you! (And you of course Mizz Brizz!)
