    Hope all goes well at the hospital today Tracey.

    I have GA 4 items from the stash today. Not doing too badly this month now. Am going to Boots later on though and think I will be tempted by glitches and money off vouchers!

    UU:

    31. S&G Daily Smooth body butter 50ml - WNBA (but think I have more of this stashed), bit thick for my liking and left my skin feeling sticky. I prefer some of the other S&G moisturisers.

    INs (freebies)

    9, 10, 11. Garnier Moisture Match sachets, 1.5ml each - think they sent me one of each type

    Rosemary - sorry to hear you've been unwell, hope you're on the mend.

    Hi All,

    Found out today that I'm going to have exploratory keyhole surgery to see if it is possible to remove the tiny node that is causing problems. It's going to be on 28th (a week Thursday) so not a lot of notice! If I'm lucky I will be in and out on the same day - if not I might have to stay overnight...

    (((big hugs))) to Rosemary - hope that you are feeling better soon!

    Not meaning to be an enabler, but just dropped in to say that if anyone's looking for some MSE style toiletries for gifts or a little treat, M&S have a fab Nature's Extracts range which are priced from £1 to £5 and are also buy one, get one half price - bought some fig and orange oil products for a present and they looked and smelt gorgeous, bravo M&S :T I also see they've 20% off online at the mo.... :o
  • Hugs to all who need them.

    Just caught up with 3 day's posts, had a horrid cold and been busy in the garden too. Not much movement here, no IN's and a couple of small items to book out later.

    Tracey - best wishes for the Op, hope all goes according to plan.

    Rosemary - sorry you have been ill, had FP a couple of times and remember how awful it can be.

    Evilsquid - you are doing great, I wonder why some mothers bring up their boys to be so hopeless, I think a lot of men never quite leave the small boy behind, but not 365/365:(

    I have been really bad at using body lotion/butter, just cannot seem to get back in the routine, I have decanted a Lush Coco Lotion into a dispenser in the hope that it will spur me on (and stop me spilling it on the bathroom floor!

    UU:

    32. Hello Kitty Liberty hand wash 175ml - WBA, pleasantly surprised by this range! Going to decant a bubble bath into the dispenser as its very pretty and I still have plenty of the matching hand lotion to use.

    33. Dove Cream Oil body wash 250ml - WMBA, did the job but think I prefer gels to creams and not a huge fan of the classic Dove fragrance

    34. S&G Glad Hair Day conditioner 50ml - WMBA, gorgeous smell and seemed to detangle well. Replaced with same.

    tracey - good luck for the op, hope consultation put your mind at rest somewhat, and it's good hat you don't have too long to wait for it ad means less of a build up to it so less time to worry hopefully. :hugs:

    Have a couple of uu

    Bare Minerals Original in Fairly Light - this was a sample sized pot and I have replaced it with Avon Smooth Minerals which I like very much.

    No7 Liplicous Balm/Gloss in Angel Cake - WNBA, have replaced it with a Bourjois gloss from the stash.

    Also have ins

    I took advantage of M&S 20% off online and ordered Ren Glycolactic Face Mask, this is a pricey mask so needed a good offer to warrant buying full size.

    Also in is a pot of Egyptian Magic Cream, this has just 6 all natural ingredients, I will keep you posted of how I find it.
