I suppose the "true meaning" of Easter depends on who you ask. Personally I see it as a celebration of Spring and the new life it brings. Even though I'm not into the supernatural and I don't believe in deities of any sort, I still feel a sense of wonder and awe at the natural world. Maybe I'm...

Sorry about Scrappy, AB. He looked like a lovely dog. You have my deepest sympathy.

Good thread. I agree with a lot of these points. Just a few more things I'd like to add... * Please get rid of the sound effects (cheering, heartbeats etc). They are annoying. * If you are going to make claims about your jewellery ( rarity of the gems, for example), then please have some...

Welcome to the forum, Iris! Nice to meet you!

Personally I wouldn't bother with these paint pad things. My sister ordered a similar product a few years ago to do her bedroom. The results were streaky and it didn't cover nearly as well as it shows on tv, even though we followed the instructions to the letter. We also had to reload the pads...

Y'know, with all these cliches going around I think we could make a drinking game of this... Every time Jill "love love loves" something...... take 1 sip. Every time the presenters lie about the availability of something (e.g. "This is exclusive to QVC and can't be found anywhere else")...

My mother once bought an electric wok (I can't remember which channel she got it from). I don't know why since she never cooks Chinese food and I always use the stove. Eventually she gave it to our neighbour's son. I've had quite a few things I've never used. One was a soft serve ice cream...

He wasn't describing chocolate pearls by any chance, was he? Just curious...

I checked this morning and they are off on sky too. Wonder what'S happening?

:mysmilie_466:HOW much!? And I always thought that garnets and colourless topaz were fairly common and therefore quite cheap.

Ugh. All this talk about undercooked meats reminds me of that time my mother, grandmother and I ate at this restaurant in Cardiff. My grandmother (may she rest in peace) decided to have chicken salad and chips. She was given half a chicken. On the surface it looked fine, but when she cut into...

Nice bracelet! Very pretty!

Wait a minute... so you're saying that I didn't need to dye my eyebrows bright red to match my clothes? Bugger... :sweat:

Hello Rozzy! Shw'mae?

I wonder who they are trying to target with that sort of pitch. Conspiracy theorists? Besides, the claims he makes are ridiculous. Why would Virgin, Sky et al. carry these channels if they sell something they alledgedly tried to ban?

Gosh, whoda' thunk it. Not only is tanzanite rare(ish) but it can time travel too! Is there anything this gem can't do?! *rolls eyes*

Yeah I saw this on tv last night. £49 quid + p&p for teeny weeny ruby chips?! At first I thought "This must be a mistake", but knowing the company behind this I'm not surprised at anything they do any more.

... when you view people who buy greetings cards rather than make them as inferior beings. ... when you'll happily pay as much for a cubic zir...uhhh sorry, Diamoneeek ring as you would for a similar real diamond ring. ... you wonder why people get angry/ confused when you blow glitter/quack at...

Aaaawww! What a cutie! My dog Harri sometimes watches TV with me, but he almost always ends up falling asleep for some reason...

... when £250 is a reasonable price for a piece of costume jewelery. ... when £50 is a reasonable price for a bottle of shower gel. ... when you are surprised to learn that yogurt is sold as a liquid. ... when you have the dates of all TSVs in your diary, but keep forgetting your own birthday...
