ACK! ACK ACK! ACK!

# tell her
the less she puts on her face, the better her skin will be. Honest.

I wash my face in the morning and put on a moisturiser and an eye cream - in the evening I wash it with just water and leave it one day and use a cleanser thingie the next. It's a whole lot simpler than a lot of girl's routines and my skin has magically cleared up by huge amount.

Sorry. I don't know what came over me then. ;)

# Lush
as in The Stinkiest Shop in London?

# this one
was the stinkiest shop in Sheffield.

I don't bother with call their fancy pants stuff, but if they stop my face from burning then I like them.

how easily my liking can be bought.

I still maintain that for a pint of john smiths and a curlywurly I'm anybody's.

# We do still have it
in a cupboard. It's been there since 1995.
I'm going to ask if we can flog it.
I'm not promising anything, but I'll have a go.
