My car is quite old now but from time to time I get audible warnings about things usually when I am driving and go into panic mode as the sun is shining on my speedo and cannot see the warnings lights that go with the sound. It is usually something minor that goes away when you turn the ignition off and back on again. Sometimes cars are just to…[Read more]

Hi, a bit  late but a warm welcome from me too Lilyrae.

When I was younger and cars were simpler I did do a spot of maintenance and of course my cars were older then as well so they always going wrong. Today cars are well made a pretty reliable, like most ladies I do not like getting hands dirty now or breaking nails, I hate it if a man has dirty hands and nails let alone a woman. I keep a pair of…[Read more]

I do have some flats but love wearing 3 inch heels as I think my legs look better and longer lol.

I am with you Rowena when it comes to ironing, I just hate it but most of our clothes are polycotton and hanging them out makes all the creases go.

I clean quite a bit in our house especially the kitchen, I am obsessed about not having stuff on the worktops except for a kettle and the bread bin. The kitchen is units etc are white with black…[Read more]

An interesting topic, I think that we ladies are more touchy feely than men and I  suppose that can come over with certain girls that we are interested in something more than friendship. I think Cassandra has hit the right note here, be clear but gentle with the woman but say hopefully you can still be friends.

I think we develop a good routine that suits us and just go with it as much as we can if we have the time. If I am rushed my anti wrinkle creams are a must underneath my make up and I skimp a bit on that if I am really in a hurry. Sun protector is vital the older you get if only to protect  your face in its present state.

I like to look well…[Read more]

We should all be vigilant, I don’t do any banking online but check our accounts. You should always make sure you log off when leaving your bank as that can be a gateway for the criminals too.

I have a similar routine to Kitty and yes healthy food helps as well, my only gripe or should that be my man’s is that I take too long. Funny how that did not matter when he was courting me lol.

You and me both Kitty, I have loads of tops and a severe shortage of skirts but will be rectifying that soon lol.

Hi Rowena, I totally agree with you some ladies do look at us if we wear a pretty dress or skirt as if we are somehow showing them up. It is a funny world lol.

You should bite the bullet and dump her it will be easier for you in the long run.

I badly needed a haircut but have a friend who does it part time, however she had stopped because of the lockdown. Only today though she came out to me and cut my hair outside after I had washed it and it was still wet. She also wore a face mask and a visor, I think she had looked at recommendations online.

Well what an interesting post, I love dresses but yes most ladies I see now wear leggings or jeans during the day. Anyone who wears a dress can stand out get lots of looks.

I find wearing a dress or skirt makes me put on my best knickers and bras as I feel more feminine doing that, plus on a hot Summers’ day a flowing skirt or dress is so cooling…[Read more]

I agree lipstick does show off your teeth to good effect, I shall try that RIMMEL one of a kind as well.

Oh on the tea thingy I find it helps to have a caffeine free cup last thing at night as I sleep better.

Lip gloss is so sticky so if you want to leave it on your glasses and cups feel free.

I sometimes need to write a line

When I have a bit of time

A chat on here is very nice

Sadly now my only vice.

Hiya, surprisingly I used to love Yorkshire tea but have found LIDL’s red label very nice. I suppose TWINNINGS breakfast tea is the classic one though as it reminds me of those trips away staying in hotels with hubby lol.

Tea for me most of the time without sugar, I do have coffee a couple of times a day DOUWE EGBERTS black with a touch of sugar.
