.....and then there were two! Shirley Valentine (she hates me anyway) has been holding the fort on her own for a few weeks, but Erika's come back to show her support. Hyacinth has still to report in for duty, and cardboard Richard - I hope he's not buried under a mountain of cardboard!

I caught a bit of Ophelia this morning and it was almost back to square one. I say almost as she didn't make any mistakes as far as I could see, but it was all "I'm lovin' it, your lovin' it" "£49 pounds and 50 Pee" Say the word pence for heaven's sake! Then at the end of the presentation I...

I really liked the look of them although I’d rather they were a little lower in height , and a lot lower in price. I find it difficult to believe that they’re as comfortable as she says. Mind you, she does wear them for an entire 2 hour presentation , so maybe. Biggest problem with QVC...

For heaven's sake, how can Ruth justify charging £95 for a pair of summer wedges with a denim upper? Yes, they look well made, but the upper is fabric and imo they should be a fair bit cheaper than the ones with leather uppers. £95 is actually pricey for the leather ones, but for denim, I'm...

I love June! I think she's proper posh!

I'd love to hear them apologise to those who don't like polyester clothes, they'd never get a show underway. I watched some of the show last night and caught a rather peculiar coat, polyester of course and it had a choice of a garish blue, or a garish red geometric design - It didn't even look...

Those trainers have taken that "look" right back to 1970's when only the eccentric would be seen out wearing trainers with a dress. I've got nothing against the trainer/dress combo of today but the trainers need to be dainty and not of the sporty type, and definitely not trainer/boots...

Funnily enough, I thought it looked great on her, obviously being young and "firm" helps a great deal, the fact that it showed her clevage helped as it kind of broke up the look. I can't count the times when some of the larger girls (eg Claire with her enormous boobage) come out wearing a dress...

I've spent most of this week either at work (not ideal) or giving the house the spring clean that it desperately needs, ok, if I wasn't expecting a house guest this lunchtime then I possibly wouldn't have bothered, as I mentioned before it's been a real pick me up after that terrible holiday...

I'm becoming a proper "homebody" as I get older - The thing is 'cause I'm still working (albeit part time) I still do long shifts, sometimes largely with a 7am start my idea of a holiday is not having to get up early in the morning, not having to put on that horrendous, uncomfortable &...

I was very much in the middle stream for all my subjects, down for CSE and had to pay £3 to double enter at O Level which I passed with a C which was ok considering I was in a CSE class for the entirety of my time at that school . I achieved a CSE grade 1 at French which is supposed to be the...

I said this quite a lot when we used to compare Annaliese and her ott behaviour and Ophelia being like a rabbit caught in the headlights. I presume that they just had to tell Annaliese to rein it in a bit, and when she did, lo and behold we were left with a pretty good presenter. What do you...

I remember begging my mum to buy me a pair of Scholl's sandals and she always said no and kept going on about how many broken ankles these sandals caused! I don't know how true this is, but I never got any and by the time I had my own money I wasn't bothered about getting them anymore

Were in a world full of reality tv, fake nails, plastic surgery, fake tan, fake everything, and it doesn't matter if you can't string a sentence together, if you look the part you're in. I'm not saying we should be going back to the days where you'd never hear a regional accent on television...

Thank you - Suitcase has just been dropped off, so that's a relief, it has got to be the worst holiday yet, but you're right, it was no holiday! To be honest I know people have literally had holidays from hell. We got back in one piece and apart from a couple of days of absolute exhaustion no...

I'm terrified of boats lol!!!! I can do boat trips when I'm on holiday but a cruise liner .....aaggggh! This stemmed back from when I went to belgium for a short break with my boyfriend, Townsend Thoressen- sister ship to the Herarld of Free enterprise. I remember saying to him when we got to...

It was never gonna work "virally" because despite Q being a global company, in the grand scheme of things, they're still niche. If they want to get themselves out there then they need to advertise outside their own four walls so to speak, yes they've got a social media presence but that's only...

Perhaps they're holding out until Hyacinth gets back (which must be sometime this month). I'll be interested to see whether she dives straight back in where she left off, or whether this holiday has made her realise that there's more to life than QVC. I have to say that I'm surprised that she...

Wow, that looks really cheap and really frumpy!

Lovely weather here today, and back to work tomorrow - Got a friend coming down to stay for a few days on Saturday, so since I've been back from "that holiday" I've been doing some proper spring cleaning, and do you know what? I've enjoyed doing that more than anything I experienced last week...
