    Just out of interest, how do you pronounce that in GB?

      Not yoop

      Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

          I've taken to using some of my older bottles of 'odour of toilette' as deodorant instead of paying the rip off prices for Lynx etc. A couple of squirts under each arm pit and it seems to do the trick just as well.

          Trouble is my sense of smell isn't great following an incident when I was 18, so no idea if it's too overpowering. No one's commented yet so **** 'em!
          Feist - 1234. One camera, one take, no editing. Superb. How they did it

              Never been a fan of perfume. But I now work in an overheated portacabin with around 15-20 bobs, all of whom eat curry for lunch and a couple of which have questionable hygiene. The afternoons can get pretty unbearable. I now douse my cleavage with Chanel #5 so I've got somewhere to stick my nose when it all gets too much.

                Sounds like a scene from a porn film.

                Oi Mich, you take it from here.

                  Indeed. The scent of woman is a lovely thing. Overwhelming it with synthetic stenches is madness.
                  While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

                    I love perfume and I wear different ones according to my mood or the time of year (I have a lovely winter one which won't get much of an outing now until October).

                      Today I am wearing Eau de Coffee & Nicotine.

                      It's quite spicy but manly at the same time.
                      that's my preferred musk, luckily for me the train i get absolutely stinks of BO everyday so when I get off I feel I smell good
