Morning Tuesday folks.
When I said yesterday that good actions deliver extra energy, well there is obviously a time limit to that; as last night I arrived home at 8.20 and both Tash and I were in bed by 9.30.
We were pooped to say the least and just had to retire - none of this however before we had devoured two amazing rib eye steaks, marinated in freshly squeezed lime and olive oil before being mercilessly pan fried in a sizzling sensation of heat and smoke - it's the only way.
Going to bed early achieves many things almost exclusively all good, especially deliverance from the chocolate monster - unless that is just moments after you think you have escaped him you hear the words - "hey babe look what I found in the fridge" at which point a largely untouched and already opened family size bag of Maltesers is plonked on the bed and five minutes later seems to have mysteriously disappeared into our bellies.
That said an early night is still a Godsend and especially on a Monday ahead of the thick end of another crazy week on planet Earth.
And here's the mad bit - Noah slept all the way through. That is all the way for the first time ever ! Tash woke up this morning in disbelief feeling like a million dollars. We both rushed into the little man's room to make sure he was ok, and there he was wide awake with a big smile on his face but quiet as a mouse - now what's that all about? Children indeed.

Way to go Noah....sleep is sooo important, as I found out last night, having a really restless night, so feel less than 100% today.
Re the rib eyes...hows that diet goin?

Morning blogpeeps!
Will try to catch up with the posts over the past few days soon.
Have a very exciting day today as my best mate's gf is due to have her C section at 10am at the hospital in Andorra la Vella this morning!!!! They're expecting a baby girl and it's their first. My BM is 52 so this is going to be a huge life changing event though right at the moment he seems to think that itshouldn't make that much difference to their lifestyle... we'll see!!
It sounded like CLP & the team and the lucky winners had the time of their lives over the weekend. Somehow I don't think I'll be quite in the league to bid this year but it's good to dream...
Hope you all have a fab day!
Luv

Hi Chris,
Congratulations on your good night sleep and on having such a wonderful baby son, and of course a beautiful wife. Those maltesers sound very tempting and the rib eye steaks sound delicious!!
Lyndy - a baby at 52??? Is your friend mad!!!! I'm sure it will be the best thing that ever happens to them - but I think they are in for a shock if they think their lifestyle won't change. It will never be the same again- ask Chris he should know!!!

Morning all
Bit of a struggle here today, I think I need some of whatever Noah's had, as I got very little sleep, had to get up extra early, then got stuck in a huge traffic jam, and ended up being late for work.....!!
Need an early night tonight methinks!

Morning gang!
Early nights were definitely the order of the day (night!) then! I was tucked up in noddy land just before 10 o'clock, and just like weeny Noah, slept all the way thru to the alarm at half six this morning .... and I feel
WONDERFUL
for it!
Had to get petrol this morning, my worst job in the world. I would honestly rather iron than get gas for the car. Hate it, hate it, hate it. The only saving grace is that the garage isn't a million miles from the Golden Arches eatierie so had bacon and egg muffins for brekkie. Delish!
Also listened to some "vintage" Madonna on the way in, so was singing along a top pelt. Man, I owned that space!!!
Ha!
Right. Work ..... back in a bit. Honest guv!

How I would love a real good sleep, don't really get the chance with working shifts plus the jam-eaters. still can't complain really, who else would love only 3 or 4 hours sleep after a night shift to be introduced to a disney or cbeebies character???? hehe

Morning my friends!
Teddy Tired-Eyes here. I was at a meeting last week and apparently the other people around the table were taking bets no how long it would be before I fell of my chair as my head kept nodding - and I thought I hid it so well!!!
Well done to Noah for being such a clever little boy.
Hope everyone is doing ok, hugs and love to those that need them - Bagpuss, hope you're feeling better soon.

Early nights are the best. Me, I had the best night's sleep, not even waking when Mr P's alarm went off 6am, now that is rare!
As for Noah sleeping through, it's magical and yes, the rushing in to see if he's ok, and of course he is!
Looking forward to a girlie pub lunch today with best friend, gotta drive but hey lots of chatter, gossip and catching up - luv it!
Bit overcast here but not raining.............at the moment!! It ain't gonna stay that way, that's for sure.

Morning Chris,
There is nothing better than a good nights sleep. Or perhaps when you feel you've had a good night and you look at the clock and it's only 2am, so you turn over for another 5 hours....bliss.
I went to bed a 9:00 on Sunday as I was cream crackered and had been suffering with really bad hayfever all day. Next thing I knew it was 6:45 - wonderful.
Home alone in the office today, so it's gonna be a long one!

Morning AliB!
Madi - when I was in my teens, my best friend's parents were both much much older than everyone else's parents, as she was a "late in life accident". When we were 15 her eldest bro was an ancient 38.
Sadly now, she has no parents left as they died when she was in her 30s.

We could have watched it on listen again or wotever it's called. The new fangled watch it another day thingamabob. Dammit.

Dee- you make the assumption that my friend is the Mum to be... he's actually going to be the Dad. Still quite old for a first child but he's young at heart, fit as a fiddle and to be honest I don't think he would have been ready for a child before now. I'm going to be nearly 42 when I have my baby later this year so I guess I'm an old Mum to be too

Morning Big Chhief CLP
I did exactly the same as your good selves last night.
Myself and LovesYoungDream - flat out on the couch last night and at 930 could take it no more.
LYD made her way up the stairway to heaven and I followed with the obligatory water bottles shortly afterwards. A long weekend of BBQs, entertaining, chat & late nights had taken their tole.
Fresh and well this moring, though I wouldnt say no to another couple of hours . . .
Thanks again for the reports around the weekend - as a major car fan, it was as close to heaven as I reckon I'll ever get -without actually getting behind the wheel of one of those classics. . .
Thank you so much,

Morning all!
CLP - even a non-car-lover like me has enjoyed your blogs over the last few days!
and that first sleep through the night is very odd, i agree! have done that rush into the room to check they are breathing thing myself and they just lie there laughing at you!!
I always SAY I am going to have early nights but it always ends up being 11pm at least before I make it! then if i have a good book on the go it's fatal -sometimes I think I should restrict reading to the weekends and holidays!!
there are things to be said for having kids at any age - I think you give them different things if you are older/younger. My only worry is that if people are lots older (eg mothers who have them by IVF at 60) the kids will have lost their parents when they are quite young adults. At 42 I still think I would be young to lose one of mine now! And Lyndy - 42 isn't old these days!!! (except when you have to run in the mother's race at sports day like i'm going to have to tomorrow!!)
i'm not sure that i've expressed that terribly well now i've read it back but hopefuly it will make sense to some of you!!

Good Morning All
I too had 'older parents' but what you gain from them is up to you.
I can't really see that there is a right age to have a baby....... young mothers do not have the patience for their babies whilst older mums perhaps tire easily.All that really matters is that the child is needed and loved by their family.
Having said that a full nights sleep really does make allllll the difference.

Can I add I have young parents - they are turning 50 this year - and they were grandparents at 40 - they can apprecaite their grandchildren at their age and have many years together with us kids all left home.
The downside is that when I am ouot with my dad occasionally people have thought we were dating!

Morning all, was last night the night if early nights?? I turned off the light at 9:30 last night and was pushing zeds not long after that. Woke up briefly at 4:30am to the sound of the rain pouring outside, then back to the land of nod till after 8. RESULT!!
Re the whole older parents thing, my dad was 52 when I was born, and took early retirement when I was at primary school, which meant he was always free to take me to school etc. He passed away when I was 21 and in my penultimate year of Uni, it's horrible to lose a parent at that age (and at any age) so he has missed a lot of my life (iam 29 now). But hey, as scantily said there's never a right age to have a child, think in the case of my parents it was once they had met the right person.
Right off to to food shopping, what can I have for tea tonight?

Hello all, just watching the torrential downpour outside, glad to be in here, even if it is work!!
My parents were in their mid-30's when I was born (10 years after my brother) which, I think, was quite old at the time. As many of you know, I lost my lovely mum last year, and dad has just turned 70. It must be hard to lose a parent at any age, as has been said, but I wish I'd come along a bit sooner so I could have them for longer!
CLP, a good night's sleep does wonders, doesn't it!

Morning each..
went to bessie mates last night armed with a bottle of adult pop - result was me not being in bed til gone midnight and then taking forever to sleep...def need myself one of these early nights you all talk of tonight!
Chocolate monster comes out every night chez Scoobs..currently bringing those new clusters from the C company..flaming lovely and moreish!
Hope everything ok with your friends Lyndy.. we`re all waiting for news now!
And as for being older parents.. age doesn`t matter.. my dad was 27 when i was born but died when i was just 20.. sometimes these things happen and what matters is the parents and kids have enough love and support in the time they have together to both grow as people.
Right..enough deep stuff from me..off to forage for an early lunch!

Ode to Spoon
How would we stir our sauces
How would we eat our soup
How would we take our medicine
Without it going gloop?
How would we slurp our casseroles
How would we munch our fruit
How would we crunch our cereal
Without it spilling on our suit?
How would we sip our yoghurt
How would we gorge our pud
How would we stir our coffee
Without it turning to mud?
Mainly by using a Spoon.

Now Christopher, I just wanted to say directly to you my little deary, you are a radio marvel young man.. a radio marvel!
And a really mean that my dear!
I have not written on your most marvellous blog for a while but today after hearing of all the good charity work... I just had to my dear!
Just a marvellous marvel all that you have done for the marvellous Children In Need Children's Charity for the children!
I have been looking at the wonderful photographs of the marvellous Drivetime Disco Charity event and I find it a wonderful wonder Christopher Evans, just wonderful!
In fact a feel the urge to chub your little red cheek! And rather firmly deary!
And the wonderful photographs of all the sports cars, very scary, i'm glad I wasn't in the passenger seat my dearies, nowadays I find my scooter on a downhill section is more than enough of a rear end kick for me!

Alwight CLP And Every Blog Operatative,
Bingo Star ere......
CLP - My goodness CLP.... the very last word of your blog.... I like it very much.... instead of Children In Need..... yuv changed it to Children....... INDEED!!!!!!!!!!
I like it...... I like it pal!!!!!!! I like this alot!!!!
The 'INDEED' word is spreading ter all areas!!!!! Everybody seems to be using this word..... I really think it's about time it should be recognised and INDEED, INDEED put in the next Oxford Dictionary!!!!!
Been looooking at yer Dine And Disco photos CLP and my fav iz the #34 one!!!!! A man in total DJ on air concetration.... a 'ope the controller of R2 iz seeing these photos and INDEED this one in question, aka the #34 one!!!!! PS Damn nice shorts/ shirt and 'at!!!!! And shades!!!!!
Still wondering about/ why/ the reason for the many 'white' Ferraris..... goot me thinking.... iz it that you are lining up in the line up a back up plan ter start a wedding car business if the radio thing goes ape????
Just trying ter analise the situation... a find it interesting.... analising situations!!!!!
A used ter like white.... in fact my dream car, or one of them, when a was younger- 14 ish, waz ter own a Diamond White Ford Sierra Sapphire Cosworth.... a just thought white suited that car... some colours on certain cars loook better than on others!!!!
Also CLP, glad all the cars came 'ome safely.... shame though about the burnt out clutch on the F40... probally 7 ter 10k for a new one!!!!!!!
Reminds me of my Lotus a used ter ave.... very similar ter the F40 except the Lotus 1350kg.... the F40 1100kg... so lighter and on top of that.... 349bhp on me Lotus.... against 470 or iz it 479bhp for the F40???
(What's 9bhp between car discussions!!!) The fact that both cars ave a V8 twin turbo makes them very similar but the lighter weight of the F40 and extra power from it's BIGGER turbos iz what gives it that extra acceleration.... Lotus 0-60 4.5/ 0-100 10.5 but the F40 faster at 0-60 3.8/ 0-100 8.6 and racing versions even faster!!!!!!!!!@!!!@! (soz all ter bore all with the in depth crudentials of the cars in question)
I'd love ter ave a go of an F40!!!!
A nearly burnt the clutch out on me Lotus accelerating too fast!!!! A used ter practice accelerating 0 ter 100/ 120 az fast az a could.... love the feeling of driving such a powerful car!!!! (PS Noot on the public roads of course) Still slow though, compared to an F1 car!!!!!
A admit a was nervous when a first bought the Lotus az i'd never owned such a powerful car!!!
It's good though ter be respectful to such cars... probally why ave never 'ad an accident or INDEED nearly 'ad one az a always drive safely/ within the limits of the car and the road conditions!!!!!
A found a goot used ter the Lotus and found it abit slow..... felt a needed more power!!! Proved to mesen maybe a am capable of driving a proper racing car.... sure i'd get used to it!!!!! Just wish a 'ad the money ter race!!!! Mind you wouldn't be fit enough ter drive in F1.... need ter build up neck!!!! Soz sound like a sad dreamer know, sorry now!!!!
Used ter arrive 'ome sometimes with smoke coming off me brakes and a burning smeeeell from the clutch.... time ter ease off before it burns out!!!!! Which brings me back ter the clutch going on the F40.... easily done!!!!
Although a get the feeling it's noot driving fast that burnt it out at the Drivetime drive!!!!! LOL!!!
Soz ter go on about me Lotus but ter me this waz a total dream.... sad but when yer don't ave alotta money ter get such a car waz amazing ter me.... i'll never forget the experience and 'opefully if things come good in the future, i'd defo buy another!!!!!
Just shame i'll never prove me racing talent, deep inside a think a ave!!!!!
Don't mean ter sound egotistical or a sad dreamer but it's 'ard ter live with when yer think yuv gotta 'idden talents but can't realise it!!!!
It's like golf.... only 500 quid for a good setta clubs but a 'aven't goot the full talent with golf... am awesome with putting/ short game but can't get the swing correct!!!!!! VERY frustraiting!!!!
Typical am a total natural at driving but it's 400k for a season in touring cars or millions for F1!!!!!!
Trust me ter pick the most expensive sport when am from a council 'ouse single parent family.... story of me DAMN life all!!!!!!!!
Seriously though.... soz ter talk too much about cars.... or INDEED meself.... sounds so bad, ain't it!!!!!!!
The important bit ere/ iz/ waz ter raise money for children..... and INDEED Children In Need!!!!!!
Great that nearly 'alf a million waz raised from all the Dine And Disco/ Mag 7 Drive...... worth every penny just ter see Jono S 'it the decks on the disco!!!!!!
A tryed ter bid mesen for a place but couldn't afford the going rate.... so just gave what a could instead ter the C.I.N radio marathon!!!!!
PS - Did the Nigel Bardon get through the event without any injuries?????? LOL!!! If so.... 'ow come???
PS CLP - A notice the Coburn noot white!!!!! AYE!!!
My advice.... CLP why noot pop inter 'alfords and get a few tins of Ford Diamond White spray????@??? It could be the world's only Ford White Coburn!!!!!!Glad ter off 'elpful advice!!!!!
A once sprayed the bumpers of me black 900cc Fiat Panda silver.... loooked wild!!!!!! Used ter deliver pizzas in it!!!!
PPS CLP - Also a notice in the photos of the Coburn.... the rear loooks very unlike yer typical Ferrari but like an MG RV8/ Roadster but more so like the RV8!!!

Hello guys, hope that all is well with you.
I had a very constructive day today. Have organised to visit two childminders for a chat and a look around. Feels good to be moving forward.
Had some sad and tearful conversations with my boss, she told her husband to leave on Friday as he has been having an affair. I'm currently the only one at work who knows, so every time she has a chance she chats..bless her, she is such a nice lady.
She is having to re-home her two german shepherds. That is actually what is upsetting her more at the moment!
Back later.

Howya fellas!
Haven't been catchin' up since I got here in lovely Norn Ireland, so here's me note.
Anyway, sounds like DTDAD was a total blast, can't wait to look at t' snaps.
However. Just popped on here quickly to report that me head has finally exploded. Am officially bonkers.
Have been rushin' around like the proverbial blue-a**ed fly all week, when yesterday, it happened. OK, it was warm and I was stood standin' in bright sunshine beneath a large glass atrium, rather like the biggest greenhouse in the world, but suddenly, mid-conversation with the GBF, a wave of nausea came over me and the place started to spin. Realising I was possibly going to faint, I went to sit on the floor, (GBF was delighted; thought it was going to be a Rocky Horror moment), anyway, not wanting to cause panic, I muttered something to himself about needing the loo and headed for some seats about 20 yards away.
Never made it. Next thing I know, I'm being stared at from above by a (rather delicious) young man whose voice I couldn't hear above what I thought was the noise of low-flying aircraft, and everything went white. Not black, white. What's all that about. Ah NO, thinks I. I'm deed, am goin' to meet me maker and the last person I see on this mortal coil will be Damian. Bugger. I wanted the full bedside routine, everybody wailin' an' devastated as I drew me last, all soft-focus and shrouded in designer gossamer, not in a ruddy shoppin' centre surrounded by eejits and wearin' Primark sandals with me toenail varnish all chipped.
Anyway, the delicious young man, who happened to be a doctor, sorted me out and made me drink a small pond of water before convincing Damian to send for the ambulance, not the Fire Brigade. Any excuse as far as he's concerned bless 'im. So I felt right peculiar for a few hours, couldn't speak or see properly but now all is well.
Thing is this. It's been very heavy weather over here, threatening thunderstorms; and as a migraine sufferer, I've noticed that this is the time I'll get them. And so I'm wondering; does anyone else have this experience?
Ergo, I only told the GD what happened about an hour ago, and of course, she was interrogating me about exactly what happened. And I told her the story about the time when she was a Small Genius, in fact about the same age as young Noah.
I'd just put her down in her cot for her afternoon nap, when I got the dreaded tunnel-vision, and started to feel numb down the side of my face. A migraine. In those days, I used to get them badly, with the excruciating pain that accompanies them, and the only thing for it was to throw strong painkillers down my neck pronto before the sickness set in. Anyway, long story short, I was in a bad way, and after 12 hours was given a strong sedative by the doc and slept for a further 24 hours.
And this is the wierd thing. The then hubby told me later that, to his astonishment, the baby GD just slept alongside me, he just fed and changed her a couple of times, and she slept peacefully there right next to me for all those hours until normal service was restored.
How cool is that. These babies, see. They know EVERYthing. Babies rule the world.
Any road up. Rips, how was that hotel? I hope it wasn't scaldy; I haven't stayed there myself and was a bit worried to be honest. Anyway, yous is big and daft enough to deal with it if it was Fawlty Towers I'm sure.
Right. Bath beckons. And new nail varnish. Renee was right. Always wear a clean vest and knickers in case you get run over.

Hello, am Torchwood widow again so here I am, procrastinating.
Clodagh, so glad you're ok; have fainted properly twice, once after nearly 6 weeks of mad dieting (aged 18) and once when 7 months pregnant in Homebase by the paint mixer. Not nice.
But the delicious youg doctor was a bonus.
If I'd have been "caught short" today I would have had on a brown bra and black and white spotty knick knacks, not good,and, although I went for an "experimental" file and polish on Saturday, chipped right hand fingernails due to excessive guitar strumming.
Babe1 slept through from about 2 months, but to counteract the effect she never ever slept during the day and demanded round the clock entrtainment and stimulation. Swings and roundabouts.
My computer has decided not to let me overwrite mistakes, but Ican't see any OVR button, any ideas?

Bags, yes, but where is it?
No what you mean about becoming a lady. I have spent more time on looking and feeling good, including working out, in the last 6 months than ever before in my 44 year old life. Never EVER thought I would appreciate cosmetic samples, wedding magazines (I've got 6 months worth if anyone's thinking of taking the plunge) fabric shops and sparkly shoes to name a few.
First time round I was besotted with babe1nowknownasteen1 and let me mam get on with it.
Aksh, I think OVR problem has mysteriously sorted itself now.

One for Baggie.
Beep.
I haven't caught up much today, but this morning you sounded pretty down.
The corniest line of all is 'I know how you feel', but I really do.
Without dragging my state of mind into this too much, I have been through a very introspective time lately, part of my ongoing self-analysis that has been part of my life for the past 20 or so years.
I've been to the edge, had a peek, and bottled it. Thankfully. But that was a while ago, and for a few years I've had my moments, but kept my feet on terra firma.
See, I'm really a lucky git. I've got a fantastic wife, a few quid and the freedom that a childless life brings. I'm not saying that is best, but it suits us. But, I am a worrier, and so are you. I also get very stressed, and so do you.
I went out walking in the rain this evening. It is a really cleansing experience, mentally, I mean. I even began to compose some words, stuff about rain, and easing the pain, bits about rainbows, you know, the normal drivel. But it made me feel better, more positive.
I don't really know where I am going with this, other than some of us feel the pain too, and you have to find your own ways to deal with it. Much as I am a shy, private person, I find talking to people a therapy, as well as being creative. Write a song, or a poem, or paint or draw. It doesn't matter what you talk about, or if your creations are not so great, it is the outlet and the expression that is important.
A bit like coming here really.
I hope you find your river. Yep, another one of my faves. Did you like Thank You?
And, one more thing.
Catching up on Masterchef from the other day, I noticed a chef in a London eatery tell the 'celeb' that they had to make an extra effort as the diner was a 'VIP'.
Hang on.
Surely, every guest is a VIP? Why would you make more effort for one person because they spend a few quid, than for someone who had never been before?
We once went to Spago, Beverly Hills. Yeah, I know, posh, celebrity, expensive...., but we wanted to have a quick look to see what life was like on the other side.
Midway through the meal, chef-proprieter, Wolfgang Puck came to our table and spent several minutes asking us how things were, did we like the table, was there anything else we needed, etc. He then moved to the next table and spent the same amount of time with Steve Martin.
Two humble, English accountants, with a few quid to rub together felt very special that night, and will remember it for the rest of their lives.
Thank you for bearing with me tonight.
Peace + love
MfR

I remember a few years ago getting a letter from my salon saying the fabulous Sarah was leaving for a tour of the Greek Islands. She had done my hair for 3 years, (I've got very tricky hair, sometimes curly, sometimes staight, always unruly) and I felt totally gutted and abandoned.
Now I have the wondrous Jo, may salons and stylists later, and I must ask for it to be written into her contract that she must never, ever leave me.

Ah tanks chaps, yous is sweethearts. But all is well on Planet Clodagh, the GD's professional diagnosis is am Bonkers and a Hypochondriac. Hurrah.

Bp. Who knew zebras never match the undies, I certainly didn't. And how does Mister Bp know anyway? Words need to be had I'd say. And stop 'im watchin Animal Magic too. Obviously turns a chap's head.
And another thing. Take heed of my old Grandma's tragic mistake when she sat watchin' the wrestlin' and knittin', next to the snoozin' War Hero Granddad in the string vest. Caught the end of said vest and by the time Mick McManus had dispatched Uncle Arthur with the Half-Nelson and step-over-toe hold, Grandma had a nice dishcloth but Granddad woke up lookin' like a little fat extra from Fame.
And anybody else remember wearin' the swimsuit knitted by your mother? Jaysus. One splash of water and the thing weighed more than chain-mail, ebbin' an' flowin' with the tide, trappin' pram wheels, chip paper and billy-cans within and draggin' yous out to certain death off Morecambe beach.

BG. Bring back the rubber flower bathin' caps I say. Mind you I'd have to refine the edge a bit with some more scalp-friendly material. When your mother wrenched said cap off your head at the end of the day it pulled your abdominal muscles up with it and left you with a hairline like Elizabeth 1.
And Annie. How would I ever have guessed you'd have a terrible orange swimsuit? Hahahaha, yous were obviously sartorially tortured at an early age as well.

Dunno about the MJ thing, we had a memorial for my Nan, she was 94, and it was just over an hour!
She was the eldest of sixteen, so all her surviving brothers and sisters wanted to talk, and her kids, grandkids, great grandkids, etc, and even 3 GGGkids were there.
My 12yo niece read a lovely poem!
And Nan was there all through it...just felt right....

Clodagh...the flowery bathing caps are available in our local high street store..Banburys in Tiverton.
All very glam.17 yr old really wants one but they aint cheap.
No,no,no.now not a necessity,more a fashion statement.
Re the fainting..tunnel syndrome.
Had a bad case of it 5 yrs ago.Went in for a routine g.bladder removal and ended up with pneumonia and pleuresy.
Got home after 2 weeks in hospital,was so desperate to see how my plants were doing in my abscense.
Bent down to look at toms,stuck a garden cane right through my eye.
Outcome a week later went to see Doc with massive chest pains...ended up on surgery floor...fingers actually turned inside out.doc said it was the most extreme case he had ever seen,he retires in Sept.
Daughter had the same 3/4 weks ago.
I was geared up on what to do from my own experience and grabbed a paper bag for her to breathe in and out of.

Hello again,
Finished my coffee. Now to do something really daring - have a shower. Last time the soap went doen the plughole and I could't get it out so the damn thing filled up with water and then ran on to the floor. More water on the floor than in the shower in the end. Not to waste the water, had a quick wash with the spilt water. Fine, but a bit cold.
No soap today. just gel.
Hopefully, the bottle cap will not follow the same route as the soap. If it does, then I am taking up bathing!!

Chez, am currently wearing skimpy leotard, but then am not showing bits, and am also not 50 either so must be ok?
Boss did look at me a bit askance though. Feel leotard and stripey tights may not be totally acceptable work wear. Legwarmers may be a tad over the top. Should perhaps move them slightly lower down.

Baz, they come in 100mg pills. I'd take one with breakfast and one with your evening meal. Try to start taking them about 24hrs before you fly, and take one just before you get on your flight too, else the b-s'll getcha as soon as you arrive and you won't even notice! Don't forget that they'll turn your pea green, but this isn't anything to be concerned about, I promise!
And don't use other repellants otherwise they'll mask the protection of the B1, and you may still get bit!!!
