    Thanks spoon.How (on earth) do you do that?:o
    Marmite - what I do is

    open the thread and reduce the size by clicking on the button on the top right hand side with two little boxes in it. That takes the thread down to half size. Then open a word document and do the same. You can then have the two documents side by side on your screen.
    Do the update on Word by clicking between the two.
    Then when your finished the update on word press 'ctrl & A' at the same time, this should highlight the whole document, then press 'ctrl & C' . In MSE open a reply and in the box press 'ctrl & V' this will paste your text into the reply page.
    Hey presto!! You can tidy it up a bit or highlight things from there as normal.

    I know it sounds very complicated but it's like everything else...easy when you know how and with a bit of practice :)

    That's exactly what I do as well marmite, thanks freeby :T

    It's the same as the basic copy and paste marmite, just with a bigger document to copy... you can do it :A

    Morning everyone :wave:

    Well I'm definitely in line for my 5 in a row today as the shopping is postponed due to snow. I'm :mad: and :D at the same time if you know what I mean:o

    Hope everyone's safe and warm and, if you're driving in the snow, take care.

    Back later with the update, back to work now:(

    Could you try the manufacturer to see if they'll have a list of distributors close to home, or may sell direct to you (that may mean a bulk order tho) if you can sweet-talk them? It is damned annoying when you really like something & TPTB either fiddle with the recipe to "improve" something you already like, or decide no-one wants it anymore so stops altogether :mad:

    According to their FB messaging they will have two stockists, one in Kensignton and Harvey Nics :eek: (of course I'm always popping in with a bottle of Bolly and Jennifer Saunders :rotfl:) There is one online site but they don't have the colour. I did email the website address (it's a french make) and just got told they don't ship direct to the UK (how helpful)

    So, I'm going to keep an eye out in the next couple of weeks - I've just started a new (my last) pot so not an emergency and I'm going to take it as an opportunity to perhaps try something new - unfortunately the one I am thinking of trying is 1 1/2 times the price :eek: but I have quite sensitive skin and a decent foundation it worth investing in IMO.

    I can't believe how quickly we are speeding through February.

    Looks like we are getting good numbers already too.

    Well done everyone :T

    Kerri - regarding foundation. If you have a Lush shop near you (or just check out their website) they do something called Colour Supplement. It comes in 5 shades in a small pot. Use it neat as a concealer or blend fifty-fifty with your usual moisturiser and use as a light, moisturising foundation. I got some 2 months ago, and use it 3 times a week when I go to work, and there is still loads left, enough for a few months yet. If you were able to drop into a shop they might let you try a smear on your skin to see if it causes problems.

    Alternatively you could look for a website that does discontinued cosmetic lines, you might find your favourite stuff on there.
