IW have missed a trick today, they should have had Natalia on this evening, and do a Halloween Special.

Wonder if the press are at Chez Jacks yet or not, any idea what TV Region she would be in, Would be a laugh to watch.

Happy Halloween

Accompanied by Torchy

That awful tacky Advent calendar from The Somerset Toilet Company. Apparently, the contents cost between £8 and £9.99 individually, he says. Where exactly, he doesn’t say. I got my partner the M&S one, which you can buy for £50 if you spend £35 on homeware and clothing type stuff. Some genuine good things within that.

I didn’t see that so can’t comment. I regularly buy products from the Somerset Toilet Company and find them excellent. Always buy direct from them. Rarely buy advent calendars but they are sometimes a good way of trying different brands.

Thanks for the photo upload. Very interesting. It seems to me that if you try anything i.e. remove it from the box switch it on, etc.. then they can say within their terms and conditions that they won’t refund you. Which makes the whole process of ordering something with the intention of seeing whether you want it or not, absolutely pointless, if you subsequently find you don’t want it and have tried it. Which is probably the only way you’re going to find out that you don’t want it!

It really annoys me when the Masons keeps saying 'You're not buying but trying' and 'Send it back and we'll give you every pound and penny of your money back'.
He only rarely says that any delivery costs won't be refunded and never mentions that returns will apparently have a deduction from any refund available.
Surely many items like perfumes etc will be sealed, so how do you try them without opening?

You don't need to open those to smell the regret from that purchase, so they get sent back no issues

When you gift a bottle of Bog Brush Parfum, you shouldn’t need to open it

For future reference, Peter Simon stated repeatedly on Sunday evening, 27th October that there would most definitely be NO MORE Numii Collagen or Emi Oil balm on Ideal World before Christmas 2025. I completely trust Peter Simon's integrity but just in case otherwise we now have that categorical statement down 'on paper' and let's see if he is indeed a man of his word.

There's a surprise!! I just this moment tuned into Ideal World and Emma is selling Numii Collagen. I saw Foghorn Sally flogging it on at least two occasions over the last few days also. So that's conclusive proof that Peter Simon is a LIAR and a FRAUD. Okay not a startling revelation to most people on here but just in case anyone doubted the fact.

I honestly have to think back to high street shops in 1970s to have a similar returns policy to compare Ideal Doppelganger's with.

 

[Duke of Cheese]

A very eloquent and well-spoken voice, she has. Unfortunately, the well-enunciated words aren't saying very much factual or worth hearing in general.

I heard his surgeon took both buttocks to replace his cheeks.
For some reason, no one wants to kiss him on the lips any more.

Yes, I think you'll find they did that.
That's why he literally talks out of his @rse.

They’ll be selling magic lanterns next or those slotted cylinders that you turn the handle. And the picture inside moves (they had these in the Science Museum)

From nowhere else but Switzerland? Not a great start for informed choice.

Thought you guys were taking the p!ss with refs to Somerset Toilet Company.

Then I looked it up: Toiletry company.

A toilet company is something very different!


Happy Halloween!

He mispronounced it at least once as ‘Toilet Company’. Made it even more amusing, with the Advent Calendar Scent Box being absolute toilet.

Now…curtains drawn, lights out, and pretend I am not in for the next two hours or so…

Emma is one of Hammys Favourites

And now is the type of show why she's one of my favourites.

 

[Duke of Cheese]

ONLY WATCHES COSTING THOUSANDS OF POUNDS HAVE DAY WINDOWS LIKE THIS DUCHUMP…Yes, Waltina, of course…

 

[Duke of Cheese]

Are these people dishonest through ignorance or intent?

First time I've seen MM or anyone read a fake text/post out last night saying 'Hammy from Aberdeen likes the music and prefers 'roamin in the gloamin' or Beggars Banquet or Bay City Rollers.

(Forget which they said, Runrig or something?)

I was literally transfixed by his atrocious attempts at karaoke and his expositionnif his 'glittering' previous entertainment 'career' with showband and names he was 'far too modest to mention'. Lol, give me strength.

Waiting to hear my name (Phaedrus from Athens, presumably) read out one day...
