I think I watch The Philadelphia Story at least once a month and Casablanca! African Queen- love Katherine Hepburn and adore anything with Humphrey Bogart. Also adore Audrey Hepburn, have a fab boxed set of all her movies. Ooh nearly forgot Cary Grant, Ingrid Bergman, James Stewart and later the...

I kind of like SBC, well some of it anyway, I actually haven't tried that much really. I do like the collagen gel - don't use it on my face but I mix it with body lotions to make the lotions go farther. Also like the propolis for irritated skin, it's great on spots too. I don't want the Arnica...

One of my neighbours told me she'd never heard of Brief Encounter- how can that be? Made me feel quite ancient and I am only 50, well nearly 51! Perhaps I'm strange as I adore old black and white films and have been reading Dickens and all the classics since I was a young 'un.

Apparently it's 200 years since the birth of Charles Dickens so we could have Bleak House -bedding and lamps Great Expectations- maternity wear Oliver Twist- bowls Hard Times -value range of watches Little Dorrit -children's clothing A Christmas Carol - obviously anything christmassy Pickwick...

I'm actually glad this thread has prompted me to really think about what I am spending. I was brilliant fo 3 months and I've fallen off the wagon again since Easter a month ago. I daren't add this up.... 1 Liz Earle TSV 2 Elemis TSV - on advanced orders as the flipping website crashed and I...

The website is absolutely infuriating, I've nearly lost my temper several times. I hate it when you get the 'can't order now' message but I really hate it when you click on an item and it goes straight to the home page.....WHYYYYYY? seems to happen particularly when clicking on an item in a list...

Oh of course...how daft am I? I was just amazed that the TSV came so quickly in a normal size box and wrapped nicely inside!

Liz Earle website is great- really fast delivery, great packaging with freebies and good monthly offers and I love going into the Leeds shop too with instore loyalty scheme. Last time I was in there I was having a really sressed day so one of the lovely staff gave me a hand/arm massage with...

I caught a bit of a handbag show yesterday - Tyler Roden or something? - and the woman on that had the most annoying voice I've ever heard, I didn't like the show anyway, horrible tacky bags with umbrellas, so I switched off. I can't really explain why her voice/accent really got on my nerves...

I got a card today saying TSV would be 5 full size and 2 handy travel size treats (?) of 'much loved botanical beautifiers' featuring 'daily essentials, pampering bodycare and trio of delights for hard-working hands', 'gentle enough for all the family to enjoy', that's it, no more clues and no...

I had a nails inc manicure which chipped the same day. I wasn't doing anything heavy duty, just lounging in the garden, luckily it was a free mani so I wasn't tooooo miffed! I find some LD colours last better than others, he does a colour called Supermauva (think that's right) which lasts a...

I have a love/hate relationship with Gatineau. While I do like the Firming Throat Gel, Activ eclat gommage, Melatogenine eye serum and kind of like Floracil, I actually detest the Melatogenine face cream - it's so thick and feels horrible to apply, I just don't get on with it, I go spot-tastic...

How can they prove you actually used 50% anyway? The bottle could have leaked on the way back to QVC?

I love the Liz Earle Skin Tint, but you do have to be frugal with it. An overload can look shiny so be quite sparing when applying it! Also I'd recommend using fingers to apply and not a foundation brush, it seems to go on better. Lovely light coverage, like a tinted moisturiser but with more...

I was thinking this only yesterday - I miss my bright red lippy and shades look too! Actually I wish I didn't care and just wore it anyway, but I'm a coward!! But really I can't wear it now at 50, not because someone says I 'shouldn't' but sadly just because it makes me look ill. Teeth not...

Ooh just got email allowing me to order the TSV early -Thandie bracelet is £36.60 plus p&p 3.95. Colours look nice but not sure yet as it might look a bit plasticky?

This brings back my Laura Geller pre-Christmas TSV rage! I was told twice that the courier couldn't get access to my house (according to the tracking computer), when I live on a bog standard street just off a main road between two large towns with loads of parking and it hadn't snowed or...

Mine came with a leaflet with massage techniques. It was just under the lid of the box on top of the carton of balm.

I like the blusher and the spackles but don't like the eyeshadow at all. I'm brunette (covered grey!) and dark eyed so not sure I'd ever use blue on my eyes and definitely don't want more B n B as I have hardly used the last one. I did see they'd made up Tara (?) who's dark haired and she of...
