The missus buys her moisturiser from Guerlain, and is around £200 for a 50ml pot, but lasts for ages, and is much cheaper than buying a load of sub £25 products that dont work and give her spots.0

This is interesting….the things I won’t compromise on….:p
Baked Beans - Heinz baked beans….tried all the others and they’re just not quite right. I guess it must be the sauce as all the beans are just simple haricots. :cool:
Soft Drinks - Robinsons Lemon and Barley Water….the best refreshing drink in the whole Universe and a good way to get your daily intake of water. Their Orange barley water is also a good tasty squash drink too.
Tea - Has to be one of Tetley’s, Co-op or Tesco’s Premium. The latter I find to be a very good tea indeed. :rolleyes:
Eggs – Must be labelled Free Range. I get mine from the local butcher along with a regular meat order. I don’t buy supermarket meat.
Toothpaste – This is probably a bit more difficult but I stick to what my dentist advises and that’s any brand with the word ‘Total’ in it….but I also use a good mouth wash, and an electric toothbrush as well as floss and a normal toothbrush and the small Interdental brushes. :rolleyes: ..."have you finished... you're boring the butt off me..."
Cheese Crackers – has to be Jacobs Cream Crackers. Tried others…either too toasted or just not quite right for some reason.
Hooray....
