    I can't do dove shampoos at all, for exactly those reasons - horrid.

    I love Dove body products but I despised their shampoos. They give me terrible dandruff and my hair never felt "clean" either.

    Evening all *sounds like a policeman*

    Hope everyone's well?

    Could I ask for some non-skincare advice? As I said I'm meeting blokie's parents in two weeks, they're cooking us a roast on the Sunday (it will be poultry of some sort), I had an idea to take dessert but it's an hour drive and I couldn't think of anything that would travel well and be impressive so I'm getting wine.

    He said Rose would be good, the only problem is that I don't know anything about wine, I can't stand the stuff except for Merlot, so.....which one would people recommend?
    hopefully nothing kadison, but always wise to get those sort of things checked out.
    not sure what ive done to my foot either i think i either got bit or trod on something when i was clearing some scrub wearing flipflops, i got a rash of little itchy spots that looked like bloodblisters, after a while they dried and now keep flaking and im left with an area about 2ins by 1ins near my big toe joint thats all skinned off dry and itchy. nothing seems to be making it any better and that was about 2 weeks ago.

    He said it looked like a blood blister to him, but it doesn't hurt at all, would it hurt if it were a blood blister? I haven't had one before....
    I'm in again and now I'm debt free:j the £1 for a UU will be going into my new ISA:money:

    HUGE congratulations Seaside!!!!

  • Thanks Kadison. We don't drink rose very often but M&S wine is generally very good:money:You could make a pudding like chocolate brownies and grab ice cream from somewhere near their house or take some yummy chocolates for after dinner, personally Hotel Chocolat are the best and always go down well with everyone I know:)

    Kadison there's a new Gallo wine out for summer with fruit flavours. I bought the Rose and it's lovely but there's also a snazzy new red that is designed to be drunk with ice?? Might be worth a try.


    Bought is to buy. Brought is to bring.

    Thanks, I think :D I was eyeing up the Curls Rock shampoo in TK Maxx for £12.99 last week so bagged it, and the self absorbed conditioner for £6 each instead. IN MY DEFENCE, my current 'poo and 'dish are almost finished ;) I also picked up the Paul Mitchell Extra Body root spray pack, they used this on me at the salon last time I was there and I liked it but I baulked at the £15ish outlay. £4 for a full size and a mini I can cope with.
