    I really must stress how much I enjoyed the film Hidden Figures thanks to Josie and Nellie. I even went a week later with my sister as she wanted to see it . It's well worth going to watch. Black women in the 60 s had a rough time with coloured s toilets etc and very much second class citizens.These three extrodinary black women did so much when working for NASA. They are still alive now and one in 97

    Some suggestions pretty please

    Oh has requested head and shoulders shampoo - it is not his birthday for a while yet so it is not going on the list :(

    What do people use instead - the non branded much cheaper version?

    We do some daft table presents at Christmas and I wrapped up a bottle of Alpecin for MrTM. It's supposed to stimulate hair growth. We have been pulling his leg ffor weeks that his hair is growing in thicker. So much so that he's asked if I will get him another bottle

    It's £5.99:eek:

    Could he be double bluffing me?:think::think:

    They do an anti dandruff one but it might be best to wait for mr mhocs birthday:rotfl:

    Mr TM has been "in training" to act as a commissaire at road races and stepped up to the mark today when someone was ill. He said that he'd been given a bottle of Prosecco as a thank you.

    That made me very happy.

    But this made me happier still:T

    Please ignore the bike it's a long story:o
