I've used this lady's lotions and potions for years, Dex.   It's called Handmade Naturals.

Nothing of hers has any nasty chemicals,  and her face cream, and shampoos/conditioners, and body creams are superb.   

This is how she explains about the things most people use everyday of their life,  not realising how harmful they can be.
It's a long and frightening list!

And the last episode in my Asda Saga

Asda Toilets not for the faint hearted or those easily offended by Vlads ablutions
 
 I am the chosen one.
 
 
 I had to visit my local shopping centre to pick up a new phone, (that in itself is a whole bloody saga involving a call centre somewhere on the Indian sub continent) and felt an urgent need to ease springs as we say in the army, so off I pop into Asda and I am confronted with using the centre trap!

  I don't know about you but I don't like  using  a public toilet especially when I need to do a jobby, and what makes it even worse is when the only available trap is the centre one, the ones either side being already occupied
 
 As soon as I sat down, I knew it was going to register quite highly on the Beaufort scale. I could feel that there were about 250 cubic feet of wind , waiting cheekily for the first chicken nugget to fall out, so that they could quickly announce their arrival.
 
 What to do? It may surprise you, but I'm a bit coy about bum burping  loudly within earshot of strangers. Should I play the waiting game? The bloke on my left was making no noise at all and was therefore unpredictable. The bloke on the right was reading a paper, I couldn't wait as my brain was well aware of its surroundings and was already exhorting my botty, via the central nervous system, to release the hounds.

Then,,,,,,,,,, as if by magic on the door to my immediate front there appeared a burning finger which wrote, ' Vlad my son I find that the key to negotiating any tricky social situation is confidence; you can pull anything off so long as you act confidently and in the knowledge that YOU are the man.
 Thus: 'Do it loud and proud. Moan with pleasure, loudly implore Odin to help you evacuate, bang the sides, scream like a tortured duck. That's how I do it - not only does it add to the moment, but after a while people will see you doing the walk to the bog and will avoid the place for at least half an hour. You will forever dump alone. You are the Chosen One'
 
 So I did.
 
  I left the cubicle, washed my hands and walked out into a silent staring crowd of shoppers and staff...a stunned look on their faces, children with open mouths,  men gave me the nod the  acknowledgment of respect and the females realised they were moist, 

Then without warning from aisle 14 Brenda appeared, the duty shop floor supervisor...her hi vis jacket glistening in the down lights. Like a battleship on an attack run  she surged through the crowd, babies in strollers, small children, the elderly in mobility scooters all swept to one side in her bow wave....she stopped in front of me, silence descended, the tension increased, children started  to cry... and she asked the question which most people fear.....'Did you flush Vlad?'

The End

He claimed to be a diplomat which I translated to papercip monitor at the Foreign Office.

I forget who did the christening now but it was excellent.

For some reason he used a version of this as his avatar

Was he the one that said he a was high-ranking HMRC officer & new all the tax dodges & benefit tricks?

Quote from: Alex on Today at 06:18:21 PMSciatico is just nasty.  Yes he's entitled to his opinions, it's just the way he "speaks" to people that pixxes me off and I no longer respond to him.  I think he's married to an arab who is muslim.

Aha!  I didn't know that, but it certainly explains his devout and strong opinions.

I stopped using soap/shampoo a long long while ago.  My skin is better, sweat rashes have disappeared, I don't have dandruff (which ironically I did have when I used head&shoulders) etc.  

Has anyone else done the same?

You need to do a quite line test.

Plug a corded phone into the master socket, have a cordless base station disconnected & dial 17070 & choose option 2.

You shouldn't hear a single sound, if you do then there's a line fault / dirty line to some extent.

Sorry to be runner up.  Happy birthday, Alex.
