Gems have scored another "own goal" with the descriptions of some pearl earrings....I feel I must draw your attention to the statements of origin of the "South Seas Pearls" in these earrings...... 18K South Sea Cultured Pearl W.Gold Earrings £3,123.14...

This question of feeble gold weights is one of my strongest objections to this ( and some onther) channels. Quite how any ring, particularly, is going to last any time at all with these pathetic amounts of gold is beyond me....it gets me even angrier when the presenter witters on about...

Simple style, lovely stone, looks very pretty on your hand, Greenie...... I'd be pleased with it if I were you!

What bothers me is that there is enough prejudice out there for items from Shopping Television Channels already... some of which is really very good quality.... without this sort of twaddle being spouted by Tony, as an "expert" to fuel the notion that all TV bought stuff is rubbish. That is not...

The sharp eyed amongst you will see that we are not wearing any gems bracelets in our "Red" pic.... that's because, in my case, at least five of mine are either broken or missing stones! Thought that might be relevant in the light of the trouble listed elsewhere about a Gems TV rainbow sapphire...

You are so right, Argey..... I am waiting for a gilt frame to be custom made for my copy of that fab foto of us at last week's tea dance, by the way. I don't think we've ever looked better........... tho' I'm still not sure about your tattoos !

I spy spammers!

It is no surprise to me that these celebrations are more than a bit pathetic.... just received NOW an email from Gems, dated 7th October, telling me about the Fab things planned!! If they got their notification system in gear then they might have a bigger audience, then they might sell more...

I've never fancied being a double glazing sales person, myself......

Flippin' heck! I'm too late again! :sad:

Quite apart from all her other presenting faults, she always appears to be eating something... or else she has a very strange habit moving her mouth..... off-putting in the extreme. The simple fact of the matter is that if a presenter is going to be on screen, live, for long periods of time on...

You noticed that too, did you, Brissles? I was thinking it was only me!

Coloured diamonds have been around for a very long time; but in former times they were natural stones and thus very rare and little known. It is only more recently, as methods have improved to produce coloured stones artificially, by various enhancements, that they have come to the notice of a...

Now Yolanda, you know purrrfectly well that all my little problems are inherited and nothing at all to do with dear Flora!

Dare I mention, without being flattened, that there are a very large number of toxic plants, to varying degrees, in every garden in the country ? It is impotrant to mention when plants have a high toxicity, but even more important to teach children about the dangers of the natural world, to...

Aww, Persianglitter, I am SO pleased that you have made a purchase that you are really excited about.... it's the whole point of bling shopping, isn't it.... to please you and make you feel good. Enjoy your new ring!!

I think this is a case where that window on the world is a good thing, Tabs! As you say, photos are in big magnification and so we're seeing much more than we would in real life on your finger. I love the green colour and the ring looks so pretty on you.... I would be keeping it for that price...

My Mum used to clean her jewellery in gin ( I'm too mean!) .... so you could be multi-tasking there, Klos! :wink2:

Yup, hoist by her own "leotard", methinks! :clapping: SCW: yes, of course you are correct, every place has its good and bad points..... counsel of perfection, though, to keep calm through some of the daft annoyances they give us!

Yeah, well, glad to hear that progress is being made, PG ( or should I call you Albert?) but I think that the excuse of Bank Holidays is just another fiddle to keep us away from our money!! Beats me how one day of holiday can delay payments for more than a week , which my bank seems to manage...
