This is a girly thread so boys either be prepared or shut your eyes.
Having brought a few boxes of lil-lets with me from the UK - I just used to collect them really in case there was a war and we had to live underground or something (not really but I seemed to build up a fine collection)
, my supplies of my white bullets have finally fizzled out to my last 6 or so.
I dragged Mr PP out shopping in Freo today and made my way to Priceline to buy some more Lil-Lets and some other thing with 'wings' for night time (you know what I mean).
Shock horror - not a Lil-Let in sight, they had tampons of different brands resemble a small cruise missile or perhaps a white mouse but not my trusted and loved brand.
I stood there for ages completely thrown because I didn't know what to buy and for the first time I felt quite lost.
Now not all tampons are the same, you can get those big bastards that expand length ways and seem to come out so long that they almost tickle your tonsils (well I don't have tonsils but if I did they would tickle them).
Some of them had grooves to make them more absorbent and as for the sanitary towels - they had 'odour control'. Some were even fragranced so when they got wet they released a perfume of some sort, so basically once people got wise to it, if they smelt this perfume then the whole bloody world and his dog would know you were having your period.
Mr PP came stomping round the corner and found me gazing up at boxes of tampons. Blushing furiously he muttered something about getting razors and then disappeared really quickly.
Anyway, I can't remember what I bought I just grabbed a box of 40, I selected them as they had 'grooves' in them. I don't know the benefit of 'getting into the groove' but Madonna would be proud of me to buy something so closely linked to her song all those years ago.
And I found something similar with 'wings', goodness knows how long they are, probably like a surf board or something - or perhaps the wings are so big I could fly to London on the towel express.
Isn't it funny when you are used to using a certain brand and then you have to find another one to get used to?
I must be getting old as I don't like change and although I knew perfumed sanitary towels were alive and kicking in the UK, they seem to be very popular here.
I might import some Lil-Lets and sell them on a street corner![LOL](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/lol.gif)
And I have terrible PMT - I have been bursting into tears at the drop of a hat, I want some chocolate, my stomach is hurting, I feel fat and it hasn't even started yet.
And nope, I do not want scented odour control tampons with grooves, wings are all very nice but does 'female shopping' have to confuse me so much?
(Sam goes off to join her hormones in the hormonal party and check out her new 'wings')
