Hi Lena! Not favouring / favoring the domestic market. It's all based on scent. Vanilla scents are not created equal.Is it because you favor (favour) the domestic market? The Body Shop is British; Bath and Body Works is American. Hi, Anne!

Actually his eyes remind me of Nemo!!Definitely. I'm open to suggestions for what to name our recently-acquired male (?) koi betta fish.

They make it in a body lotion.Anything for bathing is out, we can only take showers, as we are still under restrictions. I would rather use the extra water I am allowed to water the plants outside for feeding my torts.
When I needed to add an electrical run to the new greenhouse in my back yard a few years ago the electrician I hired drilled a hole in the side wall of my stucco house and tapped into the electrical outlet in one of the bedrooms to run the line. It only cost me about $150 (I dug the trench). It's been working well for a couple years now, not popping any breakers, etc.Hhmmm. A good start might be looking into a permanent external electrical outlet. Short term, out the window. But for safety concerns Id check into a permanent fix. Good luck.
It became so long that I think I forgot to add the craziness.

Ahhh good to know.They make it in a body lotion.
okay, Now for the very long post. I will most probably have missed a lot as there was way too much fun going on in here about dryers, laundry, washing machines etc.
Here goes:
Kathy: Went to the Ca/Az border in Yuma. They went camping and boating on the Colorado river. And by the looks of it, it was great fun. I am quite jealous.
Blackdog1714: Has had acupuncture after a few car crashes and recommends it as long as you find a good one to do it.
Linda: Mrs B no 3 (I think) tried hiding the view of the camera from us, but then felt sorry and gave us back just a tiny bit of a view. She is very protective of her nest. We need an update Linda please. Daughter was and is still rehabbing two bats. They are so cute. and she is also catching newts for a project. On the 30/04 or the 01/05 it will be Joesbrother's birthday. Her leg is getting better but is still not quite there. Not sure if you read it but the last time she booked her car into the garage, Linda went for a walk and ended up bursting a bakers cyst on the back of her knee. Which has been a huge pain in the butt oops knee and has hampered her mobility and entrtainment slightly.
Lyn: Physio is also progressing well and she is getting around much better. But the school wants her fully healed and mobile before she can come back. And she sasy that we must watch for her in Swan Lake the physio version. She is thinking of renaming Lola to Boomerang as he keeps on coming back into the house. Lyn has also been spring cleaning (Well it is spring) and throwing out all her horded papers and books.
Anne: Is back, I take it that she has finally overcome her computer and add problems on the TFO and can come online much easier now. Hubby surprised her with a Betta/Koi fish which is quite beautiful. But she wants to put it in a bigger tank next to the duo (Bold and Pinstripe) I am not sure maybe just to tease them and to keep the Betta on it's fins maybe?
Oli: Had a birthday and enjoyed a kitkat to celebrate it. He has been accepted to study further. And was looking for somewhere warmer to live. Linda recommended the South of France.
Cheryl: Her kitty is pregnant and it was her brother who did it. But don't worry, Cheryl will be putting a stop to any further soap opera shinangans and will be giving them both a new look as soon as the babies are born.
Gillian popped in and says Hi.
John: Says that he and Jade are no longer an item, but he will be able to pop in more often as he is online again. But please don't mention the maids outfit, otherwise Ray will be getting his "really crazy" that he was looking for.
Heather: has given Torreto his own reality show and has shared a bit of it with us. She did advise us that she is disturbed so we must proceed with caution. Although apparently Torreto has been flashing a lot and enjoys it. Mark reckons he just needs a trench coat.
Karen: Likes to grind branches to a pulp for therapy. Remind me not to make her mad!! her favorit color is yellow and favorite flowers are daffodils. She has had a humongous bruise on her arm for over a year. As she fell on that same spot more than once. But she is much better. Karen has been helping Cathie to get her tank sorted for the Betta fish that she wants to get.
Noel: Is still struggling with her eyes and has to do eye exercises. And Shelly has worked out that the backdoor beeps when it is opened and decided that that is the spot she wants to park herself in for feeding time.
Ray: Advises using a shotgun as a repellent for Crocs and Alligators. Has trouble sleeping, so we advised counting torts, but that does not seem to be helping. He beguiled us with lovely pics of his family and grandchildren.
Mark: Sending e some more dandy seeds. He visited the Great Dismal Swamp and came home to feel swamped with all the clean up work from the storms that hit while he was gone. He now has enough wood for a good couple of years and his forest is getting smaller and smaller. Mark told us about Notre Dame Cathedral burning. And has been sharing pics of a beautiful ring box made by his wife, a wooden egg he made and the colored eggs for Easter.
Cathie: Has been sharing her brothers art work with us. He is very talented. Cathie has also been sharing her story of Saphire when he first flashed her and how shocking it was. It was so bad that she cannot unsee it. Cathie got herself a 5 gallon fish tank and she is working out the nitty gritty of the water etc before she gets the Betta that she wants to get. And she plans to put her grandchildren to work in her garden for clean up duty.
Yvonne: Has been weedeating again, and no she does not eat them for dinner, she just cuts them to the quick. It has come to light that Yvonne is not fond of adobo (a Philippines dish her mother-in-law used to make). Misty has been having a ball with her grandkids and Yvonne has enjoyed the spoils of their cupcake making skills for Easter.
Ben: Has joined the CDR and is studying to do, but seems to enjoy chatting to us more than the studying. But don't worry, we will put him back on track soon.
Sabine: Says hi from her and all her critters. And she loves pigs ears and snouts along with Ray - Holi Ha!! Ray is married..what where you thinking!!
Jamie: Has been flying his tort-flag on his ride.
Tricia: Will be buying her dream farm soon. Yay.
Carol: I am welcoming Winter while you are all welcoming Summer. Yay for you and for me, as hopefully we will get lots of water. The gang are going to be going outside everyday, and coming in at night time. I am busy getting a box sorted out for them for those cold days when I am not at home. As you know, Kang went over the rainbow bridge and is waiting for me to join him at some point in the future. Work has been busy lately and the sun is going down earlier and coming up later.
The hedgehogs have been complaining that they are being stepped on too often, so I told them to make friends with a jellyfish or two and just to poke them when they hear anybody walking near them. The snow leopard says you all are being stingy with your carrots and to please share more. The one-legged Pirate says that he heard that there was more Irish coffee's needed today and that if someone could donate some whiskey he would get together with Montgomery and organize a glass or two for those of you who would like some. The homework hound says that since Lyn has been off from work he has been going hungry and that he would appreciate some of those papers and books that you are throwing away Lyn.
The Wool Spider (if she exists) says that she is going on vacation as there is no more need for wooly socks, mitten, hats or scarves. If anybody sees the meerkat or any ghost shrimp please let us know, otherwise who knows what they will do in here.
Okay. I hope that I did not leave anybody out. If I did sorry. I will try not to leave you out the next time.
My son and husband were already complaining about why do I need to have a box for them outside. I cannot imagine what they will say if I asked to get an electrician in. I was thinking that maybe I could do what you did. But I will have to get hubby to drill the hole and then just run the cord through that and plug it in inside the house.When I needed to add an electrical run to the new greenhouse in my back yard a few years ago the electrician I hired drilled a hole in the side wall of my stucco house and tapped into the electrical outlet in one of the bedrooms to run the line. It only cost me about $150 (I dug the trench). It's been working well for a couple years now, not popping any breakers, etc.
