So true, I've seen this in my line of work too. This type of woman is lost once they're on their own. They are rudderless. All because of their ego. Best try to grips with as much as you can while you have the physical energy and the mental capacity. Once either weakens, life gets much harder.

Kinda That's all he seems to say, even when things are DEFINITELY something he always says Kinda. Aaaargh It drives me mad. I like Bose and want to learn about the technology and how to get the best from the units, but his vocabulary is so limited I learn very little. Agree that bluetooth...

I actually keep a spreadsheet of my spending. Although that sounds organised it doesn't actually make good reading. I was truly shocked when I added up my spending with QVC for 2015 (and I am DONE for this year) It came to £3770 which includes £364.08 p &p. I don't have that kind of money for...

Slightly off topic. I watched Craig on QVC the other day, can't remember the item or the type of show, but I was struck by how unprepared he seemed. He said nothing meaningful about the item, just swooned over the colour and what it would go with, then he went off on a tangent and told a...

I can't tell you how many bottles of SBC and L'Oc shower gels I've lost over the years after dropping them in the shower. I wonder if the bottles become brittle over time. My (mildly) arthritic hands can never keep hold of them. It's like a slow-motion movie when I lose my grip as I know I'm...

Me neither, or the dark gaudy designs. Could Kimmy be moonlighting with the kipling 'design' team? Heaven help us. Just noticed on other websites how many companies are using Radio frequency Identification (RFID) protection in their bags and purses now. Can imagine how the price of Kipling's...

Hermes have changed their delivery notifications. You can still track the order through your QVC e-mail to see what stage the delivery is at, now Hermes send their own e-mail, which, in my experience doesn't equal the first. I was horrified to read Hermes e-mail to discover a BOSE system was...

contented zzzzzzz I'll sleep well tonight (after calming down following my last Yankee disaster) I've had rotten luck this year with Yankee large jars and votives giving little scent and even less light. I recently received a Yankee basket containing a pack of 12 x Candy cane tea lights. I lit...

Yankee does some rubbish scents too. Am sad to say I'm no longer buying YC jars or votives as there just isn't enough scent throw, That said, I recently finished burning a large jar of Moroccan Argan oil from a crap 3 jar TSV. The candle offered little scent and poor light (the wick seemed to...

I have at least four pairs of Emu boots. Loved them all at first for the warm and comfort they gave. Over time, I found that my Stinger Hi boots went baggy and I didn't have any grip on them. They became like slouch boots, no structure in the legs. They looked very scruffy. The soles became...

To give another slant on the getting old theme. Is it me or something to do with QVC??????. Don't have any problems with this generally, but why does my menopausal self have problems with smelling the the scents of Yankee candles, 'this works' sleep spray or AD synergy geranium night oil...

Item 208455 Before I placed my order for this I read a few reviews,(they were mainly low starred as the reviewers seemed disappointed with the lack of colour choice for the foundation) I eventually decided to take a risk and order anyway. I had another look this morning to see if the reviews...

Have been dipping in and out of beauty day today and have heard Lee say several times that her, SJ and the models have only had 3 hours sleep after the TSV launch. Call me a cynic, but can that really be true if the next live show is 9 or 10 am?. Surely the BM team stay in a nearby hotel for the...

Beware reviews on Amazon. Some people put short 5* reviews on there and when you click on' see all my reviews' this is the only one they've posted. Cynics claim it's a ruse to convince people of a books popularity but they're really posted by friends/family/ employees of publisher etc and not...

Am loving this thread. I agree with many comments especially re Julia sticking A at the end of words like showaaa, houraaa powaaa etc. Drives me mad. Also Jilly and 'bran new, Grrr! The thing that really gets my goat is the way the presenters, and some guests pronounce the word 'jewellry as...
