Susie, I'm not laughing at you, but with you. Honnestly

Cackles as she enters the forum to come and play :wink: My weight has been up and down more times than a rabbits bum in March since last year when I joined the ishloss gang. Over the summer I fell head first into the apple cart ( then proceeded to it it's contents and then the actual cart itself, an...

That's simply terrible

Wow, amazing journey! I'm glad I wasn't drunk watching that though - it might have sent me a spinnin

Thanks for the link Becks, I'll have a goosey gander over to that site later :iconbiggrin: I bought a lunar calendar from Amazon just before January this one here.... which has made it all very clear and easy to follow, so I'm hoping that this will make a difference. http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/produ...

I found they were not ge...

Actually might I suggest trawling through back posts on here, I think together we have written a book on eco/frugal cleaning, although admittedly it takes a long time to do, but it's free

You could try this recipe and just use the herbs/spices that you like. :iconbiggrin: http://www.ehow.com/how_2386363_make-bay-rum-aftershave.html Adding a little glycerine will give a slightly moisturising effect too, if you wanted. I often make my own fragrances and find that Eo's mixed with carrie...
