Morning. That area is lovely Von. Ken & I went there when we were driving around France. It's going to be hot down there! I do remember the midgies so take some spray.

[****merlin*****]

are french midges like scottish midges Maggie?

if they are, get avon SSS, the green one

its the only thing that combats the scottish ones

and you get silky smooth skin as a "side effect" 😄

weird feeling stuff but repels the midges like nothing else

[ilove2patch]

Can you show me the one on line Merlin? I might get some.

[****merlin*****]

this one maggie

http://www.bushwear.co.uk/nostyles.php?ProductID=396903

get the spray, not the lotion stuff

[****merlin*****]

it really does leave your "skin so soft"

but i bet 99% of their sales are from people wanting rid of midges now

[ilove2patch]

£6 postage on that one! 😮 Is this the same?

http://avonshop.co.uk/product/bath-and-body/skin-so-soft/skin-so-soft-soft-and-fresh-dry-oil-body-sp...

[****merlin*****]

it is the same, just the newer bottle

sorry, i didnt mean to buy it from the first link

it was just the best picture i could find

if you know a local rep you wont pay postage

on the avon site it will ask if you want details of a local rep

Good Morning all .............. its soooooo Sunny :-x

just waiting for washer to finish to get the bedding on the line 😄

[ilove2patch]

Found some on here now Free P&P. 😄 Thanks.:-)

[huggles1253]

My washing line is full. 😄 Have got my bikini on and just flicking the duster round before I go and sunbathe. Oven needs cleaning but not going to get done! Think I'll buy a couple of cooked chickens later to have with salad later so no cooking apart from some jersey royals (if I can get clean ones, not scrapping them!). So I think my day is planned. Will leave the shopping till late afternoon.

BIKINI's 😐

some of us arn't built to wear bikini's :^O

I think I remember wearing one once or twice ....

when I was around 18  :8}

[huggles1253]

I'm not saying its a pretty sight! I wouldn't wear that but one of James' friends is storing his windsurf board in our shed and I don't want to traumatise him if he comes to get it!
