    OMG, i'm so sorry! oops, please don't compain to CS about me :o

    I must admit, I was a bit nervous about mentioning to you I knew who you were and had seen your posts. I didn't know your OH did not know your username, I was going to mention it to him when he bought the polaroid camera (reduced of course!). Good job I didn't, I'd have probably got a slap lol

    Your post about your visit had me in stitches. Certainly made my day! I've still to work out which one rubes is. she's a bit more tricky as i don't think she comes to ours as often as you (we were thinking of get a little fold up bed for you in the corner of the store)

    My friend who was stood there couldn't believe I'd told you but I said its good customer service and if you can have a laugh with the customers, all the better, keeps the customer and the staff happy!

    Probably see you in there over the weekend lol


    :rotfl: :rotfl: omg you're great !!


    Any chance you can go and train the sour pusses at PC for us. Now some of them deserve a slap;)

    Hiya :)

    It's 16 washes per litre of laundry liquid
    and 28 washes per litre of fabric conditioner.

    It was good for me hogshead (hate calling you that btw ;)) because even after I'd stopped using the P&P that I had a reaction to, I was still feeling 'irritated' by what I was wearing - so bought that. Whatever was 'irritating' my skin appears to have stopped.

    Yesterday I put a t shirt on that hadn't been washed in the sensitive liquid - and I could tell.

    So I'd recommend it :)

    (Didn't realise it was on 342 so thanks for that!)

    Edit: Not sure about the 342 instore.

    Great stuff, been using about 10 years and when I stay with my parents I itch for the month, but would be too much to carry it all out there or £30 to post lol, so I just take a tiny amount so my pants do not itch lol

    I can not wear rubber gloves due to the flock etc, but can use Boots and they last FOREVER. I think I have had my kitcken and bathroom pairs about 2 yrs and there is no sign of them wearing out or going odd lol

    What a lovely SA you are, I wish you were in my local store. :T :T Having said that, I have some lovely ones too. Especially on pharmacy.

    Can I also say I love your SOH, especially the bit about the campbed. :rotfl: :rotfl: Are you going to stay around???? I do hope so.

    Dont forget there is only passion who knows who you are and rubes too of course.:p

    Did you manage to get any of the mini photo albums the other day...?


    I never seem to see any GWP's ( other than NO7 ones) in there at all ? ( come on where do you hide them ?)
    I can imagine how well guarded the No7 stuff would be in there!! They don't even let people have them when they are entitled to them !!

    Sorry for all the exclaimation marks...I think my TD lip plumper which I put on over 4 hours ago is having an effect on me:p my lips feel like they have been rubbed by stinging nettles.
    No Didn't get the photo albums couldn't really justify the petrol and not so good at finding my way around new places. Did ask for them to be price checked in little Boots as they seemed to have 2 types of packaging but bogof and £2.99 . They are rather cute though. Could kick myself as they were 75p in clearance earlier last month.
    Decided this till spit offer to not leave it till the end . Got quite a stack of them already mostly wombled .
    Was rather surprised the roc gwp was still in c oaks it was all on its ownsome on the bottom shelf with no signs as to what it was.
    They are being pretty good at the moment giving you gwp with Olay definity in Chester there again nothing is below £23 with it and not on £5 till spit list so probably feel they can be generous.

    Welcome. I think you are class.
    We all know Mr B reads this in some way shape or form but the attention to detail is ......brilliant.
    Well done you for being such a sport.

    Today at photography counter I had a brill SA who kept calling me by my name though I hope he knew this purely by reading my AD card.
    The shop floor manager asked me if I wanted a job the other day after I congratulated Boots for a better spit than the last one ( £2 was dire )
    And my ace No7 lady when chatting to colleagues regarding a return said it's OK I know who you are....oh the familiarity.

    Great laugh.
