That reminds me, 40 odd years ago I went to a beauty salon for my wedding makeup try out! I had gone there by bus but I was so embarrassed to be seen, I had to walk only using quiet streets and back lanes to my Mum's work where I could wash it off, after giving her the biggest laugh, (she manned...

We were given out the wrappers to grease our baking tins etc in our classes! I thought that was pretty disgusting especially as the teacher kept them folded up in a tin.

I’m shocked she is advertising on TV as it can be very expensive. Reading one of the reviews, it would appear that she is the ‘middle man’ advertising and selling items on behalf of others. I can’t imagine what she must charge as commission to cover her costs, never mind make any money herself...

I also like home made melba toast, I've also heard it called angel toast. It's bread split down the middle and toasted, although I always split it after a first light toast as it's so much easier to split.

French toast is a big favourite in my house, the bread has to be stale or left out to dry before dipping in egg mix. I fry it in a mix of oil and butter. White bread is best. I will be trying crumpets too. I haven't done fried bread but I guess dried out bread would be better than fresh for that...

It’s still spelt wrong tonight on ‘A Seasonal Style Refresh’ just now !

I am struggling to shift my middle age spread which is spreading fast! But I do worry that my facial wrinkles will multiply if I do lose weight and prove that all that money spent on skin care was a waste!

I am using the Gatineau Glow toner now, I won't be buying it again. It's not bad it just isn't anything special at all and I certainly haven't seen a glow! I use Elemis cleansing balm (although I have just started the M&S Pure Rose Balm) and I just don't feel it is even taking any excess off...

Thank you, I ordered the Berberine as I had tried the Metabolic Gold with no success. I also ordered the Marine Collagen as my regular order through Amazon is out of stock.

I was also told that any lemonade with a pinch of salt helps (7 up or Sprite if you are abroad) but that was back when there was actual sugar in them and re-hydration powders weren't so well known or available. In my case 7 Up was easier to get than safe water. On the subject of removing sugar...

I only use the sunflower hearts too, I usually get them on subscription from Amazon but top up from B&M Home stores or Tesco..

I seem to remember using one of my Dad's socks, but a knee high one he had been given in a present, but he didn't wear that style! It had a tangerine / satsuma in the toe wrapped in tissue paper and some sweets including chocolate coins. I left it in front of the fireplace where my gifts were...

I just caught the end of item 825592 on the extra channel - Home Reflections Bells and I then checked them out on the app. The three videos showing them close up accidentally has the sound on ! You can hear them setting up other items and some of the conversations are interesting especially the...

I have a similar feeding station from RSPB. I have a battle with squirrels and although I have admired their ingenuity over the years with various feeders I've used I don't want to encourage them. I have a clear plastic squirrel baffle dome mid way up the pole that stops them climbing up. The...

Memory Lane - my best quick eye shadow was a Moave Magic, it was a natural colour and stayed all day on my oily lids and was a great base for powder shadows for more made up occasions I have been searching for a replacement for years, Mally shadow sticks just don't stay on me at all, even if I...

I don't lie about my age, I just avoid telling anyone except when I have to give my date of birth for official reasons. I was on the phone to a 'young sounding' guy at a call centre recently, we had been chatting for a while and then I had to give my date of birth, he then had to confirm my...

I have used Sephora (used to be Feel Unique) you can choose 2 favourite brands and get a permanent 10% discount, also it has a point systems for money off vouchers and a Birthday discount deal. They often have higher discounts off 'most brands'. I think Lookfantastic have points system and often...

I have had the opposite with an advanced order. I couldn't decide whether to order the October Gatineau TSV but late in the day I went for the 2nd advanced order with the intention of cancelling, if I bought the still to come Elemis or Liz Earle TSVs. First advance order was 20th November and...
