I treat myself regularly. This week it's my favourite pack of 3 mini cheesecakes from Lidl, 99p. They're the best ones I've had (of anybody's range that costs up to 35p/pot).vivatifosi wrote: »An occasional reward should be open to everyone, even the most thrifty;).0 -
I hate breaking news where you can't dig out more than the inadequate first reports tell you .... even logged onto the police media website for this one and found very little.
Two dead in Padstow Harbour after speedboat went out of control.
It'll have been utterly bunged down there today. Thousands would have witnessed it, sitting there watching their ice creams as it happened in front of them.... you'd think journalists would have been a bit more "all over the situation" by now.0 -
Hmm - that wouldn't be very often for us - twice a year at most although now having reduced our income cos of the child benefit thing it may be a lot less often.
It's working out a little more frequent than once a year for us, but it's symbolic as much as anything else. It's a milestone, a tick in the box. It focuses the mind on the task at hand. Plus it's nice to celebrate every so often.Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

It's really good for him to get loads of sun exposure unlike the rest of us ( psoriasis ) and its amazing how dramatically it responds....what was livid on friday evening is pale, much harder to see now, but the burn is stupid.
Does Dead Sea stuff help him? A friend of my mother's has it, and the Dead Sea mud does wonders for his skin.
Men are stupid about sun burn in general, IME. Except my Dad, who covers up at the sight of a single ray of sunshine, which is just as well, as he has that Welsh / Celtic red-head freckly skin that burns very easily indeed....much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -

The main problems are: access to courses and affordability. I want to do some mould-making.... slowly collecting stuff towards that and will get some materials and teach myself that bit.
I've never done a course, I just bought some and got on with it. Much more fun to experiment, I think. I practised quite a lot first on normal modelling clay....much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -
Lir, didn't you try Moroccan Oil a while back? My hairdresser said that this works great on psoriasis. May be worth a try if you have some at home.Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing?

He doesn't think it helps.
Dh rarely burns which is why being silly today is so frustrating.0 -

Oh, I do.. I will suggest he tries it.0 -

I just saw a taster day (3 hours) at £35 so went along. I had no room/tools for doing stuff myself, so had to do it elsewhere.neverdespairgirl wrote: »I've never done a course, I just bought some and got on with it. Much more fun to experiment, I think.
