    Hello :wave:

    Thanks to the OP for the kitchen roll offer in M&S. Just got a little bored at work and popped to Covent Garden. They had loads in there. Didn't fancy the scented loo roll much though :rotfl:

    TM I've won a score so far. Hell no to location but yes to camera. I'm honestly creeped out by how much info that app gathers from such a little glance :eek:

    Thank you bubbs.

    I ve had about 3 inches of my hair and also toned down to a dark blonde more in keeping with my 60 years I suppose :o. Everyone says they like it I'm not sure lol.

    I kept trying to tone down to a darker blonde this year and everyone loves it as I don't look as ill and washed out but what has finally worked for me is a brown in my natural colour with blonde highlights. Have had a few red ones put through at times too.

    Give it time as it takes quite a bit of getting use to.

    . I do think a chaise lounge is a good description of you though. Stylish yet comfortable and laid back :)

    May the odds be ever in your favour;)
