    Revive Creme lustre face cream sample WNBA expensive and too rich for my skin
    Sweetheart soap WBA
    Snowcake soap WBA

    I watched in disbelief today as a woman back straight into my car on Matalan car park and proceeded to try and drive off :mad::mad::mad: Very minimal damage, not that she'd have known as she wasn't stopping to check, her and both her passengers claimed they thought they'd hit the curb, OMG as if!!! :rotfl:

    I was sat in my mum's car once while she ran an errand in a Tescos car park and watched speechless as a woman in a people carrier swung in to a space in front of me, clipping the ford fiesta across the back right hand corner so hard it rocked on it's suspension. She then got out... walked to her boot... collected some carrier bags and walked off :eek:

    Moral Moromir however, was not standing for this and wrote down what I saw, my contact details, all the details, her description, car description, time etc and put a copy under the windscreen of both cars and went and handed a copy to security at Tescos.

    A couple of weeks later I got a call from the deputy manager... it was his ford :rotfl: she got properly written up over it and I got a bunch of sunflowers (my favourite)

    I laugh about it now but at the time I remember actually being almost upset over it, that people actually think its ok to treat someone's posession as if it doesn't matter

    Finally got to the end of another LHJ Nivea Visage - Oxygen Power Night Cream 50ml WNBA I was clearly suckered into buying this totally blah cream due to the rather cool looking aerosol can. Loved the aerosol delivery at first, however it just got more and more feeble with every use and I wanted it gone.

    Worst of all I couldn't tell how much of it was left and I have been slathering it on neck and chest every night to us it up. Today I used it on hands, feet, legs, arms, elbows and even on my butt just to get rid. :D

    Thanks for the suggestion - I will have a pop by! That's not so good about the car, but as long as it was a slow impact it shouldn't be a problem. I was told that in Paris they often leave the hand brake off, so that if people want to get into a small space, they can just nudge the cars either side out of the way. I've seen plenty of people parallel park by bumping into the car behind, bumping into the car in front, and then stopping in the middle. I don't do it, and might be a bit peeved if someone did it to my car, but I know it wouldn't do it any harm.

  • a couple of UU

    1x Soltan head and hair spf30 spray-HG for balding other halfs
    aquick spray and its sorted my husband keeps one in his golf bag and has never suffered a burnt scalp and other guys are always impressed by it

    1x dirty works body butter-WBA got this as a freebie and have been using it as a handcream really like it but cant justify buying at the moment as i have tons of stuff to use up

    1 x hotel stash soap l'occitane lemon verbena-very nice but could never justify paying that amount of money for a bar of soap

    1x no7 anti friction shave gel-get a few of these yonks ago to use up vouchers-WMBA- nice lightweight can useful for holidays lathered well but husband didnt really feel any different from normal shave gel
    feel no7 stuff has shot up in price and even with staff discount and a £5voucher still more expensive than our normal cheapies
