Like Dolly said I'm a bit on the young side to need to stuff (I know the sooner you start n all that) also I'm confined to barracks Dr's orders.
Camping outside stores isn't uncommon here, usually for a new games console or something though not some face cream, suppose there's a first time for everything. Happy camping!
Yep they do that too for X boxes at Walmart around here. Well I hit 30 a couple () of years ago so I am starting, in fact started years ago but nothing seems to have worked yet... but we always fall for the marketing

My friend's Mum had the most beautiful complexion, she only drank water and used nivea face cream.
She never drank anything else but water since she was 15

It would be too strict for me as well.

Instead of tea or coffee in the morning she had hot water, not even a lemon in it.

Oh god thats a bit puritanical isnt it??? But it obviously worked. If I dont have at least 3 cups of strong black coffe and no sugar first thing in the a.m. then I might as well go straight back to bed.

I am doomed.....

She was very strict about it, even tried to get her daughter (my friend) to do it.
She used to "tut tut" at us drinking black coffee in the mornings

No, she only drank water, not even the "sparkling" type.

I posted on one of the threads on here a few weeks ago I went to a British convention here and we all got a Boots gift bag, A bottle of REFINE AND REWIND serum, a box of 4 wonderful smelling body butters, lipstick etc and a handful of samples. Very nice.

What's the use of looking like a kid at 45 if you've not enjoyed life? I'd die if I couldn't have my vinho and a cocktail or two every now and then!
