    I can't believe the way people reacted to the washing powder test - I have never believed branded ones are best, but I do like them when I get paid to take them away by T :D

    As for what they were spending - wasn't it something like 52,000 over 5 years just for food :eek::eek::eek:

    I did not see the beginning of the piece on them. Am I being !!!!!y saying that you could not tell she used expensive make up?

    The only people that would have them as prezzies are 7 and 8!! No way their mum would take that - everyone else around me has expensive tastes or would not go for those! Tried it with the cheap Shambala bracelets at Christmas!!! :(

    Definitely could not tell! That said, someone complimented me on my makeup techniques the other day:D Only one problem - I do not wear makeup :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
