    :confused: have I missed something???????

    When I was 14 or 15 Johnson and Johnson brought out one of the first fake tans that was available - it cost a bloody fortune (around £15 if remember and that was 1984) and it was only available in House of Fraser (ooh, get me, so posh then!).

    I put it on my legs. God, I was so, so, lucky I didn't put it anywhere near my face. It went bright orange after an hour or so and very, very streaky. I sat in the bath scrubbing my legs for ages, but it didn't make a difference. Awful stuff. Bloody awful stuff.

    Luckily 'ecru' tights were all the rage so I wore tights. I could still see it through it though. :rolleyes:

    Sorry Keren, I though it was you who asked me to tell you what it was like, will have to go and find out who the bloody hell is was now. Typical me, sorry.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    You're not there to be a cool mum, you're there to be a responsible one. If they've got complaints - tell them to go to the pub...

    True! my thought as well. I have always been a bit like that, but want to do it in a way that everyone is ok.

    Not a problem - I was thinking I'd maybe gone a bit mad!! :D

    Although, I can quite see myself with glittery teeth.........:eek: :rotfl:

    talking of teeth - this morning:

    OH: "get toothpaste with stripes in next time, will you?'
    Me: "'fraid not, stripes cost more"

    I am getting so tight!!!!!!!!!!
