I am a refusnik. What were they thinking. He is a criminal. There are a lot of Americans I am feeling quite sorry for at the moment & some I think well you got what you asked for. Expect a boom in the price of high end property in London.

Bang right in the middle of the forecast for Friday. Supposed to be meeting with friends for lunch. Will have to see what plays out. Certainly not keen on driving on the motorway with the forecast as it is and would just be worrying about getting home.milann said:I also refused to watch it too. It’s very scary.

I blodge aqueous cream on mine. Leave it on & sometimes top up & then use what is on instead of shampoo. Recommended years ago for an itchy (stress induced) scalp by my doctor. I can tell by the look of my hair if it has been a while since I used it.
