Do you have to test the quality of the stock Graham?

I have many times with my reps samples.

It helps to enthuse over and sell the product when you like it yourself.

My favourite I sold  was Anthon Berg quality Danish chocolates plus their  marzipan and Lifli range.

Nowadays you only see them in airport duty frees or Amazon.

My posh frocks are mostly quite fitted designs and I can't do the zips up on some of them 🙄

Oh no! You’ll have to run round after your grandson some more 😁

At least we’re all starting  to think about our cruise clothes again!

I decided to take a couple of days away from the forum because I didn't like the tone of a few recent posts.  I have just come back to take a look how things are going, It is nice to see that Vampiress is back again but I do hope that Andy leaving is only temporary and that he and Michelle are ok.

 

Happy Anniversary Ann.

 

 

We need nice posters like yourself and all our regulars who know how to post in a helpful,caring and constructive way.

Oh dear, I haven't tried any of my posh frocks on but all of my other clothes still fit so I will keep my fingers crossed.  We have been walking a lot during the lock downs  and if my scales are to be believed I have not gained weight.  I will have to try some of them on to be sure that I don't need to buy any more.

I bought 2 dresses ready for our cruise that got cancelled last June and they have still not seen the light of day.

Hope you had a good Anniversary today Ann and plenty of bubbly 🥂🍾

 

I have not tried any of my posh dresses on yet because I know I will be disappointed in them,  put on 1 1/2 stone since my stomach operation in September last year 😡

 

Had a celebrity X cruise cancelled today for June to Baltic’s , we thought it would be cancelled  and making way for the staycation cruises 

 

Walked the grandchildren home from school today to play football in the park , husband jerked his knee and I pulled my back missed a few kicks and nearly landed on my **** 😂 then had chocolate cake and Palmer violets cup cakes in the garden.

 

Hope everyone had a good day today too

[wowzz]

Off to see my mum tomorrow for the first time since November! 

[Purdey16]

Have a lovely day wowzz with your mum tomorrow, that’s been a long time since November, we are lucky that my husband’s parents are only 5 minutes away and our 4 children live local , she will be pleased to see you 

[Josy1953]

Have a good day with your mum Wowzz, it has been hard not seeing family for so long.  It will be a treat for her to see you too.

Same as you my weight is same but my “fitted” clothes seem more snug and they certainly would at the end of a cruise!!! Think I will have to go for the loose fitting look or on a diet. I bought news stuff last year as well and are still unworn, they will be out of fashion by the time I get to wear them

What a lovely morning still a bit cool 5.c but it will soon warm up today 

You can always tell when the weathers getting better ,the birds are singing 

and building their nests and the cruise clubbers ladies will be pulling most

of the wardrobe out to see what fits  It will be about today they decide to

go on a diet ,which is not really a plan when all those chocolate eggs will be

here in five days time...Not really a plan is it ?  I wonder If that is where the

saying comes from "The weaker sex" which we all no is not true , Have you

ever seen a man trying to part a woman from her chocolate? Not a pretty

sight. 

Does it drive anyone else daft  all these different rules in the UK ?  England

will open this on such a day whilst Scotland will open on another day , Northern

Ireland also a different day and Wales could be any day soon .I've always struggled

to understand the Welsh mentality .I phoned the Welsh Tourist Board yesterday

and the woman on the switchboard said: "press Key 1 if you wish to speak in Welsh "

I pressed key 1 and I still can't speak in Welsh. Confusing times we live in .
I will be glad to get out more often now the weathers picking up as I'm getting fed up

watching Police Camera Action . Some are good I like the one where a man was pulled 
over by a police officer in Barnsley . As the officer approached the vehicle he noticed a

large number of knives in the back seat. Looking at the driver he asked, "Sir, do you have

a good reason for carrying  all those large knives in the back of your car ?" Smiling the

driver said, " Yes, I juggle them." Realizing the officer was giving him a sceptical look the

driver said, "Officer, with your permission I'd be more than glad to give you a demonstration."
Cautiously the officer stepped back and said "Alright, but you'd better be telling the truth."
Soon  the man was on the side of the road tossing the knives high into the air with ease.
Two old men drove  by and both gazed in astonishment. The one looked at the other and

said "I'm  glad I gave up drinking, these sobriety tests are getting ridiculous!"

 

 

                          Stay safe and take care folks .

Well, we finally got a nice weather in here and I really wished I could go or travel somewhere very far. Its like one of those times when you wish you were chilling on the beach or enjoying a cocktail in the company of friends while on the cruise... hate to see a good weather and staying at home 

[indiana123]

Have a😀wonderful day Wowzz.. thinking of you and your mum.  It will be emotional.

 

I'm with the girls over our cruise clothes.  I'm scared to open the case mine are in!

Absolutely. The cruise clothes are staying packed away until a few pounds (?) are shed...... I’m too scared to even try. Even shoes feel tight as been wearing flats or trainers the last year!
