He's economising - it's cheaper than having a bath.

.:D....and for gawd's sake don't forget to let your household insurers know, (so they can wet themselves laughing).

I think they are told to keep up the shouting and hyper behaviour. Probably trained through the El Crappo School for Training Selly Telly Presenters. Why this would encourage anyone to buy escapes me - all it makes me do is switch channels or switch off.

Ah, the smell of Lifebuoy soap! I loved that smell and thinking of it takes me back. My Mum always bought it when we were kids (perhaps we were particularly grimy?). And always a little bottle of 4711 cologne in her handbag! Especially as many of the supermarket clothing ranges have been...

It still affects your life, so you don't need to feel bad about wishing things were better. When things aren't right health-wise, it affects every area of our life and it's virtually impossible to 'switch off' from it.

Didn't see it, unfortunately, but I'd guess that Charlie suddenly discovered another 600,000 manicure sets in the stockroom, so Mavis was encouraged to multibuy without further delay. Mavis is now waiting, with her breath bated, for the manicure sets to be delivered. If you've followed the...

Our dentist is NHS and very good - but to be honest, every time husband and I go for our check-ups we're expecting him to tell us he's switching to private only! I think there's only one other NHS dentist for miles around here - and his books are now closed to new patients, just like ours...

Food-wise, shakes are always a good option, and what about taking a flask of clear soup to work (or packets of clear soups you make with hot water might be an option, too - although I can't say I think they taste that brilliant)? Or something like the small tubs of creamed rice or yoghurt, if...

Arnica is excellent for muscle sprains or strains, and really brings out the bruises if you suffer from an impact injury. It's a household 'must' here, wouldn't be without it.

I think you and Letz-be-avenue are being unkind to local markets and pop-up Christmas shops! IW stuff makes their stuff look like valuable antiques.🤪

If the NHS would only buy Emu Balm from IW, then they could reduce the medical staff salary bill by about three-quarters.:rolleyes:

You must be fed-up with it, though, and I'm sorry things still aren't right, merryone. But you're right to keep persevering, and I'm sure it'll be sorted in the end. (y)

She obviously needs the work. You have to laugh, really - one minute they're on Gemporia with their own 'designer' collection, or they're chief gold buyer, washer-up and roof-tiler to celebrities of stage and screen, the next minute they're gone! But if you wait long enough, they shall...

Can you just imagine Pete talking about the Nutcracker option? Enough mileage in that for at least 100 of his "jokes".

Thanks, Stratobuddy.

And didn't Gems used to do the occasional free postage & packing days way back when? No chance of that these days, they need to claw in every penny they can get.

I love the film 'Somewhere in Time' - and the music.

This is probably because they think viewers are SO flattered if they hear their name being read out. That's supposing 'Marge' even exists - I would have trouble believing them if they said today was Monday.

So it was you who got me 25 years for assault on a chocolate dispenser machine was it? :LOL: There was a secret technique to make sure you always got your chocolate - nothing so brutal as ripping the machine off the wall - but I refuse to reveal it, on the grounds that it may incriminate...

Yes, don't give them ideas, they'll be charging for each trouser leg, plus extra if you want a waistband to keep the trousers up (or trying to flog you a tube of glue, to glue the trousers to your legs perhaps?).
