TS are you going caravan this weekend? just the weather;)

Morning bubbs, so relieved for you that your OH finally has an appointment. :T

I have the family descending on me for the weekend so don't think I am going to get chance. Typical when the sun is shining. :eek:

I have to try and clear DD2's room a bit, I was doing the same before she came home last time. :rotfl:

Going up in the loft this afternoon when Mr TS is home, I can't manage to get the ladder down by myself. Few boxes of things need to go up I want to keep from mum's and couple of things I forgot to put up last time like the unwanted Vax steam mop. I'm sure it will be useful one day when I have the kitchen floor I want.

And DD1 wants DD3's old high chair from up there for Teeny. Sometimes being a hoarder has advantages.

Morning all!

Me! Me! I use Bare Minerals 'fairly light' and it's great, it blends in really well and doesn't look TOO pale. I was actually surprised because the woman at the counter said 'very light' would be too pale for me, which is the first and last time I'll ever hear that :rotfl:

Thank you - alas there is something in Bare Minerals that makes my skin react/itch so I can't use it

I am quite pale and don't tan only burn. I use Avon, the ivory and shell are not too bad. The pale girl out of Girls Aloud does a range for really pale skin but I don't know how good it is or how much it costs.

Thanks I haven't tried Avon so will add it to my list to try, I did look at the girls aloud website as a girl on the Benefit counter suggested her but the website looked a little dodgy I think some Debenhams stock it so have made a note to look for it next time I am near one

On the plus side I have just been into MrShoes as I am their palest shade (calico) but the one I tried I didn't like the texture the lovely SA gave me 2 sample pots of te different ones and there us enough in them to kast at least a couple of weeks

Edit: possible small glitch with the snickers flapjacks. if these are used as a trigger with the Jamaica Ginger cake in the 2 for £1.50 offer this will return 41p on APG in a Sainsbob comparison as only 65p . If combined with milk chocolate hobnob flapjacks against Morries should again return 41p if the right comparison is given by APG. I say if because we all know how hit and miss Morries comparisons are.

Here are the items included in the 2 for £1.50 offer

I;m the same and fry even on days most people wouldn't even consider puttin sun cream on...I don't give a monkey what people think...I slap it on all over!!:cool:

some of the cream I have childrens banana boat 50+ doesn't rub in very well and I look like a ghost!:eek:

the Mrs isn't too impressed but heyho...ive had enough of burning!!:D

I've found the aerosol versions are actually better than the creams for absorbency. I got a factor 30 and a factor 50 from Home Bargains back in about Feb for £1.99 a can. DH will even use it without moaning that it smells/is sticky/won't rub in etc. so that makes a change. I don't like the kids stuff much, it's either really thick, or greeny-blue! They don't seem to make many 'normal-coloured' adult suncreams higher than factor 30, which is a pity as I may burn easily but I don't think blue is a better skin colour than red!

Fantastic, my youngest, always makes me laugh, when anyone new comes up to the house, he stands in the living room, and waves his arm around, and says "just look at the views, arnt they just gorgeous", he is only 11. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Went on a turkey hunt this morning don't tell Zippy
