My Boots order is the same. The white wrap around the soap is dirty and I should have a free canvas make-up bag but was given a draw string wash bag. No mention that the washbasin us a replacement due to running out of make-up bags though. The box is battered. :eek: I was going to give that to someone.

The soap smells gorgeous though

Sounds like these are poor quality items across the board

I didn't get any but my shampoo etc is all fine and excellent value for the money - glad it's all for DD though, she is young and strong, as picking up those 900ml bottles feels like weightlifting to me. Hope none of us oldies drops it on their toes in the shower.... it'll be a hospital job.

Any vinegar will work. I once used malt vinegar, the kitchen smelt like a fish & chip shop.:rotfl:
Usually I boil the kettle, add the vinegar and then put the kettle in the garden.

Rather like pickling onions too :eek: :rotfl: :rotfl:

bubbs

My soaps looked scuffed but as i have never had them before didnt know if they were supposed to look like it:rotfl:, i also got a drawstring wash bag:o

Remember to leave plenty of room in the kettle for the foaming that may occur... :D

I hope I don't drop one on my foot. I've already broken the nail on my little toe by kicking into the corner of a heavy weight cardboard box (No it wasn't a Boits order). The nail broke across the toe at the bed of the nail. I taped it up and kept hoping that it would drop off when I showered.

2 weeks later and yards and yards of micro tape the nail is off. It must be laying around somewhere as I was unaware it had come off yuk :eek: :rotfl: :rotfl:

Not in the bed as that's been changed and all floors hoovered, no I won't be checking in the dust box :rotfl: :rotfl:

I kept picking the soap up bubbs and feeling the wrapping paper and it doesn't seem rough. I did think that maybe it's meant to be 'shabby chic' :rotfl: :rotfl:

Hope you are ok?
