Random musings and general banter.

Looks like no sell outs, and they only had single figures of each.

And killa vanilla didn't sell out either, another that was flying and would sell out.

How can IW charge so much

 

[Bernie100]

Yeah but it's also inspires anger as folks are being conned by Saint Mason patron saint of Integrity.

The Serious Fraud Office should raid the Ideal World studio and arrest every single one of them. Not just the presenters but all the others behind the camera too. Surely no sensible person could argue that they don't all know about and are complicit in the dishonesty and deception that is going on.

Interesting article. I don't wear perfume often these days and I don't often smell it on others either, except in a restaurant on holiday last year that was so strong that it nearly put me off my food. And it was vile

I know dupes are really popular but I'd be worried about reacting to cheap ingredients. I think I last bought a bottle 2 years ago, I'd rather buy the brand name and check out special offers and duty free.

And it goes without saying that I would never buy perfume without testing it, even though a selly telly presenter said it was gorgeous.

I have four go to perfumes that I have been wearing for years, Femme by Rochas, Amarige by Givenchy, O de Lancome and Tresor by Lancome. As I don't go out that often, a bottle can last me for years. Nothing would induce me to buy a bottle of cheap knock off fragrance without smelling it first.

I think you right to be cautious about cheap copycat products. There is a long history of unscrupulous individuals adding cheaper chemicals to products to boost profits. Recently we had the deaths in Thailand where drinks were made with the cheaper methanol rather than ethanol. A few years ago 54000 babies in China were hospitalised because a company added a chemical melamine (used to make plastics) to its baby milk powder so it would pass government tests.

That's terrible, I hadn't heard that.

Knowles, stand to attention…Knowles, as your senior officer, I am shocked and appalled at you and your men’s treatment of POW Simon yesterday lunchtime. He is a Chef Mark deserter and a sharer of intricate military procedures with the QVC German, but upon escaping on a Sheridan Tank Exercise Machine, and subsequently recaptured in a Swiss watch factory inside rented office space in East Surrey, he become a prisoner under the Deceiver Convention. Knowles, I understand that under interrogation yesterday with Nurse Largelips overseeing, POW Simon had his trousers removed live over No Viewers Land, revealing a pair of Wednesday legs not suitable for broadcast to General Hammy’s Regiment in Camp Forum. As a result there were several casualties, including Sergeants Muttley and Samki, overcome by the shock of what they’d seen. I understand POW Simon was then placed inside a cheap plastic mask with felt tip pen graffiti over the front, and red light up upper lips. He was locked inside the mask for several minutes, with no trousers on and forced to look even more ridiculous than normal. He was only saved when Nurse Largelips intervened and released him. Knowles, I am less than amused at this conduct under your command, as was POW Simon. Knowles, you have failed to bed down in your role. I need a full explanation on several top sheets of foolscap, immediately. Your error is king size in it’s gravity. Your expressed regret is of absolutely no comforter to me. Knowles, you have been extraordinarily Sealy over this issue. Now GET OUT…

You’re right - I had to get out my smelling salts and then have a lie down

TREV FROM THE COTSWOLDS FASHION LAUNCH…

Pedro has some sort of exercise stepper POD. Will it be too cold to get his chicken legs out?

 

[Jazzydrury]

He also mentioned about waking up near a guy called Max in a nearby bed

You know it's the best exercise item he's ever sold. And as I'm here: did he just say catatonic blanket?

 

[galesgal57]

A lot of stores have run out of batteries. Name me one, Peter. He ran out of batteries at Christmas apparently, obviously didn't stock up.

 

[Hammy60]

Just turned on and he's predicting another cold spell next week.

He just said Bet asked him if he would ever have an affair. So he's married now is he? Yesterday he lived alone.
