    You're right there, I wouldn't use a brand associated with birds (or squirrels). I use that loreal men expert stuff and occasionally bio oil.

    Not sure how "safe" Oil of Ulay is for humans though. My nan was a big user and she had a massive tash.

      It's been £5 for years now. Shouldn't we up it to keep inline with inflation? I know as contractors we overlook that when negotiating rates over the years, but still.

          Time to challenge churchill.

          How would you like your £5 then you sweaty mutt?

          I can only pay in Ugandan dollars which at todays exchange rate is $16,909

          I just require your bank account details and sort code. Cousin benson will then wire you the monies.

            One thing I'm never going to try is plastic or cosmetic surgery. There's plenty of celebrities doing quite well at damaging the image of it just by having it. Think Lesley Ash, Jackie Stallone, and many many others. All look like freaks of nature now.
            An old school friend of mine had bad acne. I remember the hospitals giving him loads of creams and stuff to try on his face. It worked for him in the end, although it also left him with scarring. Poor lad.

            Well I have two small scars on my face and it's done wonders for those. I didn't think it would even work, but it does!

            I picked up a bottle in Sainsburys one day and have to say it was worth the £7 investment. Even the small bottle seems to last forever though!

            Pickup a bottle and give it a whirl. It'll take a good few months before you'll notice any difference but it will help. I recommend it.

              The credence of bio oil probably being one of the few 'beauty' products that actually works is given weight when you consider pregnant women use it to reduce evidence (and maybe even occurance) of stretch marks.

              I'll add it to the shopping list. So that's 20 ready meals, a case of guiness, a copy of Razzle, box of kleenex, and a pot of bio oil. I'm sure I won't get any strange looks at the checkout.

                Don't forget the "pot noodles"

                Bio oil is in a white box with orange writing on it (I hate trying to locate things in a huge supermarket).

                You'll be fine though, it's when you buy KY jelly you get the checkout girl thinking.

                  That's like the story about AtW going through the checkout...

                  He's just about to pay the bill when the girl behind the checkout says. "You're single, aren't you?"

                  He replays, "Yes I am, how did you know, is it all these meals for one?"

                  No she says, "It's because you're an ugly F*cker!"
