Just as annoying is the misspelling of 'brooch'. Who do they get to type in these details? Whoever it is can never spell 'ruched' or 'faceted'.

I thought Catherine and Claire were a poor combination on the Gemfest three hours. On their own, I like them both. Together, CS came across as a pantomime dame, and CH as a downtrodden waif. They also didn't seem to know much about each other, which seemed surprising after all these years. I...

I find the Sports 20 excellent, but you have to put up with the alcohol that's fairly obvious for the first couple of minutes. After that, it's invisible, non-greasy, and lasts for ages.

I love Harald, and Anne is surprisingly good when on with him. The best, I think, was Sara G., when she was still at QVC - she really 'got' Harald.

I hate her shows; she just seems to have little real interest in the stuff she's demonstrating. I keep feeling that she must come alive somewhere other than QVC. She's like a sixth former trying to be polite to senior citizens. Which is probably not too far from reality.

Doesn't DG live in Wimbledon? She's certainly referred to herself as 'Mrs. Coia of Wimbledon' in the past.

Ali, if you're reading, it must be so tempting just to sit in a chair and cry all the time, yet you refuse to do that. If I ever have to go through a major illness as you have, I only hope I can muster as much pluck and determination not to be sorry for myself as you have. My prayers are with you.

Harald would love it!

Come on, girls! What did she say??

I liked Claudia, and I miss her. Her attacks of the giggles, after trying so hard to be serious, used to make me giggle too.

The chap at my post office knows all about my QVC habit - and that's just the things I return! If I'm posting things that aren't for QVC, he informs the whole post office that the world is about to end...

Sigh. I seem to keep having to defend Yong Kim. I know the clothes are a bit weird for QVC, but they really are excellent, if you're into that kind of look. I have LOADS of YK pieces, and wear/wash them to death. They're stunningly comfortable, wash like a dream, and look fabulous on. I...

And me. There's not much in the way of interesting jewellery these days, especially gold.

I went to one two years ago, and it was very pleasant. A nice goody bag too! I'm going this year on the afternoon of the 20th.

Fashion/accessories: torn between Quacker Factory and Kimfrommontrealcanada, but think I'm most keen to lose Uri Geller. Beauty: think I could live without Ken Paves, although if he could slip the Prai lady in his suitcase on the way out, I'd be more than happy. Other: I have Kelly Hoppen's P45...

Jill Franks - a head full of bubbles, and no idea how other people live Anna Thingy - not remotely suited to telly. Careers mistress should have advised something along the lines of 'PE Teacher'. Alison Young - shrill, rude and embarrassing. Please, sir, can I have some more? :nod:

The blonde lady who guests for B Makowski would be an excellent permanent presenter, I always think. She's got a lot of wit and charm, and looks good on screen.

Can I just say that Dale and Anna don't make the most comfortable team? Which is odd, as Dale is usually Mr. Safe Hands, and gels easily with any other presenter. Anna seems determined to out-clever him. She's gone on about her gap year on the slopes of the very mountain where Tanzanite is...

I'm just about to return a morganite ring, because although the stone is very pretty, the rose gold looks cheap and tacky. I should have learned my lesson - this is the third morganite piece I've returned because of the rose gold. QVC used to sell morganite in yellow gold, but at one point...

Post-chemo hair is fragile and can't take normal hair-colouring products. Henna is about the only thing you can use, hence redness. Ali may well be desperate to get back to her usual blonde, but there's nothing she can do about that for now. Her confidence must be hard enough to maintain...
