Yes I kind of agree. If you go outside of the main tourist areas and find a really good local Italian restaurant they really do things amazingly well. I am just not taken with French food. Italian coffee is superb. I love Genaro - Jamie Oliver’s pal - he is so passionate about food in a way...

I have been on my own every Christmas since 2013 and I love it. I still do the same things that my Mum and Dad did. Good food and comfort. I go to the local Christmas Carol service at the village church on the last Sunday before Christmas. Christmas Eve I always have fish. Then Christmas...

It’s nonsense to think the French are better cooks and way more sophisticated than us. If anything I think the Italians are far ahead in terms of style. I adore Italian cuisine. My Mum and I used to say that we were Italians in a previous life. 😀 The French do not ‘own’ the title of top...

I thought Debbie Flint went to from QVC to Ideal World - maybe - then came back to QVC! Not sure what brought Debbie back. I don’t know if it relates but Claudia Sylvester left then around 2020-ish Claire Sutton left; not long after Debbie came back.

I always said if I was going to be a mum it would only be the one child. I don’t have any children either. I have a number of friends who have no children so I f don’t get the ‘guilt’ aspect with it. The friends who do have children are going through the proverbial wringer with them at the...

I am just watching Julia with Gail right now and they work well together. Gail is explaining it all well without being interrupted. I may have mentioned it previously that it’s a disaster when Gail has to co-present with Chloe - it’s too much 😀

I know exactly where you are on this. I really like Alison Young - I have got quite a number of good tips and ideas from her presentations. I am grateful for those. I really love Miceal as you all know, he comes across as a genuinely really nice chap. I was so very shocked when I read...

They need to look at themselves first before they judge others - including our woofs. Nearly all dogs I know are incredibly clean. Dogs can teach humans about the true meaning of loyalty 😊 They have been trying to distance themselves from it saying that it has been taken out of context. I...

I have never read anything so utterly daffy in my life! Racism dogs - what the hell ??? I thought for a minute it was April’s Fool. The media ran with it for days 😀

In TSV’s PCMC is usually at 30ml. I cannot recall when they they did a 50ml one - tends to be those OTO offers for 50ml. Then there is the ongoing gripe about old stock - which I am not going to go into!

I was just reading on the L’Occitane TSV thread. The main concern - amongst all the beauty TSV’s recently has been the price first and foremost; followed up closely behind by uninspiring collections. Brissles and Eric’s Mum are correct when they mentioned that not so long back a TSV would be...

It was on the national news yesterday about the Princes Street in Edinburgh and shops being targeted by thieves - terrible when people / shops are trying to make a living and putting up with crime.

Soon to be appearing in a charity shop near you 😀

That sequin top could go really well paired with a “Racist Dog” 🤨 out for a walk in the Welsh countryside glistening in the bright sunshine 😬

I have suspected for quite a while that Keeley could have Botox! Very much on a par with Liz Hurley - I suspect that Ester Lauder dropped her when she turned to Botox. The worst by a country mile was Alison Keenan - her face was frozen. Shocking really ☹️

Although my skin really loves the PCMC - and I see positive results from using it - this TSV is not something I will be buying. To be exact I will not be buying the L’Occitane TSV either, which I did purchase last year. There is nothing really worthy of note in either of them. If you are...

Quite right Koala. Only thing different for me on the Shea - which is the one I bought last year - is the Shea rich bath milk. They have changed this to shower and made it 250ml as opposed to the 500ml last year.

I never really got the hype around Shay and Blue. That reads terrible I know, but I just couldn’t understand why their fragrances never really had lasting longevity through the day. I was grateful to have use of the then 30 day MBG,, but it has been something I have actively avoided.

A few years back when ‘Onesies’ were all in vogue my friend decided she was going to have a ‘Onesie’ party. I declined the offer on the grounds that I do not own one, I will not wear one and even if I did just once at this ‘party’ then in 20 odd years time a photo would come back to haunt me...

No thanks! Just had a rubbish time with their V11 Absolute TSV which went wrong after a few days! Thinking about it these cordless ones are heavy on the wrist. They are okay for a quick whizz around but if I am doing a solid weekly clean up, I need the corded Animal. The cordless is not great...
