Re: S O T D Saturday, November 21

Re: SotD Friday 20 November

What did I do? Honest, if it was a boob, it wasn't deliberate! :D



Oh so true. I can still just about pick up Small, who is now 5 and getting more grown-up by the day. So she gets bundled into...

Re: SotD Sunday 15 November

Chanel No 22. How can I have forgotten I have this amazing thing?

Re: Which fragrance for Sister in law?

If you don't like her buy her Lancome's Oui; then you can think to yourself 'she smells of wee'.
