years and years ago when I first started using the net, I took a pix of a computer mouse on top of a mars bar and put a caption news flash, mouse found on mars. Sent to loads of email friends (as one did in those days lol) Was surprised it never went viralfrugal October...£41.82 of £40 food shopping spend for the 2 of us!
2017 toiletries challenge 179 out 145 in ...£18.64 spend0 -
FC, I was thinking of you today, didn't quite manage to put a good luck post up though as ended up distracted by something else. Hope it went ok.
Have managed to get some questions answered by my consultant. Very impressed actually, only emailed the secretary this morning and had the reply a couple of hours ago. Have also been booked in for a telephone consultation a couple of days before the op, so I can bombard with questions! Oh, and she has agreed I can have a PICC line fitted which means no more horrible cannulas, and a load less to stress about (apart from the actual fitting of the PICC line!!).
Consultant is very much looking at it as a revision surgery rather than a full redo, although of course there are no guarantees once she gets in and has a look. Whilst its another 6 weeks of having a tube stuck in my belly button, I'm hoping I'll feel much better during recovery as its a lot less invasive.
Am generally feeling a lot more positive about things now.0 -

I've got skin tint bronzer but I wish I knew exactly how I am supposed to apply it. Reading the instruction leaflet I thought it would go on like a foundation and cover all flaws but it seems very dark and I could not get it to blend in - perhaps its me, used to just tiny drops and I need a big splodge
perhaps I need to find a you tube how to videofairclaire wrote: »As I found out in the past when testing some facial fake tan lotions for them.
The 2 tubes of stuff looked the same........glad I tested on my thigh first as I'd have looked like an oompahloompah if I'd put one of them on my face :eek: :rotfl:“Create all the happiness you are able to create; remove all the misery you are able to remove.
