You don’t want to believe everything you read in the Daily Mail - or indeed most of it! 😉

Yes I had a quick peep at her Instagram and quickly ascertained it was Muay Thai that she does - just couldn’t face coming back on it at the time! Only assumed kick-boxing bc it’s the only form I could think of where she could have attained a black belt. Muay Thai is called a martial art by...

Yes the lucky monkey! To be fair, it’s not for work, she and her husband to twice yearly to South east Asia and pay to fly business class! 😳 Having been housebound forever, I’d give my right arm to fly anywhere in any fashion, but it does sound an amazing experience. Not sure I could get my...

Think I will once I’ve just checked my pennies! I did wonder about trying Superskin again…. But I could never justify it at full price and last time I tried it, which was as part of a gift in a set and gave me some spots! I’m def the age for it now I think and am so dehydrated, just need to...

Quite chunky but like the tan - think it could be extremely heavy, however! Not sure what I’m thinking of* but sure Blowfish (or similar) is/was a surfer-ish brand down in Cornwall? *Just realised I’m mixing up Weird Fish with something else - please ignore me!!* These are Blowfish Malibu...

I’m tempted by the skin repair night cream as not tried and heard good things (inc from you, I think!) Poss get some eyebright too as will get low now it’s hayfever season! X

Thanks for replying I was genuinely interested! Kicking-boxing classes are full of women - I would even say majority female. Not sure what you mean exactly, but I for one took some classes to protect myself after an attack, and I’ve always been described as feminine (whatever is meant by...

Oh sorry! Was trying to help but just misled 😉 There is a banner on the website reading “email exclusive” “limited time offer” now you’ve mention it! Prob bc not bought anything in forever?

What?! What does that say - other than she must be fit, strong and works hard at the sport? (Presume she’s talking about kick-boxing?)

Got an email from LE direct… Will post screenshot. They’re offering a number of their bestselling products half price. Includes C&P, IBST, eyebright, hair care, Skin repair inc night cream, Superskin cream both options and some body products… Here is website link...

I haven’t seen Nicola recently. There is a very willowy Nicola who I saw on the launch of Kim jumpsuit but the one I mean is a keen swimmer and has a very pretty face with wavy hair I think? I don’t watch much at all now but not seen her in an age!

Do you remember ‘Clothkits’ - it was a shop which sold fabric inc Liberty etc, as well as kits of semi-made dresses etc. My mum could sew but worked full time so she often bought in there and ran up a quick dress for me! They seemed to do a lot of those elasticised panel cotton summer dresses...

Gosh that really is frumpy indeed! 😳 When I read it was a Liberty dress, I thought ‘how bad can it be?’ because I generally adore their fabrics. I used to collect their silk scarves - only one was new! - and have a nice collection. Also love their cotton lawn. But the style of the dress Ann...

I used to use either Ariel or Bold powder, but a few years ago, moved over to Tesco own brand Bio laundry liquid bc thought it would dissolve better and is cheaper. It’s got a green top - don’t rate the ‘colour’ one which has purple lid… Not looked back since! Use at 30c occasionally 40c and...

I’ve got 2 Leighton Denny crystal nail files - one small received as a gift and one larger which I inherited from my dad. I like them but do struggle with their depth (too thick at edges for me) and too rounded at ends so difficult to “get in there” on sides of nails. So in 2020, I bought a...

Ps. Had look on Nails Inc. As I said I like their Nail Kale superfood base coat but they’ve got a newish product duo for £10 (2 x 8ml) called Glow and Grow. One is a Hyaluronic based growth and treatment item and the other is a Vit C cuticle oil. One of the 2 five star reviews specifically...

A brand I forgot to mention, specifically for treatment is CND? Think it originated in California. They do a few nail treatment options inc a strengthener but the ones I’ve tried are their ‘Rescue RXx’ keratin treatment. It doesn’t go on and dry hard like your classic strengthener (they do do...

Coulee of you beat me to it! NOT surprising given how ill/slow I am these days in getting on here and then catching up…! But I was going to mention Essie. I’ve only used one of their main range, but few years back I asked at Christmas for a duo of Essie Gel Couture range.. It consists of...

For a few years, in the early 2000’s, I worked at my university in the summers on a residential course for American teenagers The tales I could tell! 😳 But I’ll never forget the course director repeatedly instructing us group leaders ahead of various coach day trips “to shag the kids down the...
