    They're such handy shortcuts when you have a PC hooked up to a TV.

    Dunnes offers. I got my Dunnes vouchers today and the latest offer is get 25 euro off when you spend 160 on one shop. Yeah, not a chance I'm going to be spending 160 euro in Dunnes, so no real offer then. I may be wrong on this but as far as I recall the last threshold for the offer was 75/100 euro. I don't know why they bother.

    I've started really shopping around and I doubt I'd spend more than 80 a week in Dunnes.

    Ok yea, that's just too much then. I knew a guy that this happened to when he was in his teens, everyone knew about it. Poor bastard.

    I am meticulous about hygiene. I shower at least once if not twice a day, I use anti perspirant, perfume, body lotion, always have my hair and makeup and teeth immaculate. But yet, I still feel dirty. At the airport, I'm paranoid I smell. I keep asking my brother to smell me to see if he thinks I'm starting to stink and he is getting annoyed with me.

    Apparently I don't smell but I feel like I do. Blah. I need to shower. :(

    I hate that.

    And then you sweat more because you're panicking that you smell which then makes you smell. It's a vicious circle!!

    I sweat like a mad yolk especially when busy or stressed out. I carry round bottles of deodeorant and shower whenever the opportunity arises. If the showers were better at work, I'd probably shower at lunchtime.

    I have to sit on a plane for 7 odd hours, then get to a hotel, before I will be able go destink myself.

    Lexie, just think about number 1 like anybody in your position and blather along on boards.ie. Don't mind the other plane passengers. The kiddies onboard might find it novel.

    only trust an Asian guy.
    Don't trust somebody from anywhere else. They'll just tell you it's totalled and then flog the thing on for a Hugh personal profit of their own.

    When I was younger, I constantly had sweaty pits. This kicked my self confidence in the nuts daily. No smell, just the sweat, but it made me want to shower all the time.
    Now though, I dont really sweat in my pits anymore. Even after a 5k run, my shirt will be ringing apart from the pits.
    But then some days, out of the blue I will have sweat patches again and it will freak me out and will revert back to my younger self momentarily.

    This really impacted the way I bought clothes when I was younger, only certain fabrics, certain colours, nothing heavy.
    Even now when buying clothes I find myself going through the checklist, until I check myself and realise I don't need to do that anymore.

    Sure Maximum Protection is very good. No smells! Rubbing a slice of lemon under your armpits will also stop the smell. Just make sure it's not on a freshly shaved armpit.... ouch! :eek:

    Botox

    Much better on the forehead, although I hear its fantastic for underarms too. Such a weird feeling, I wonder if it'd be the same feeling underNeath your arms

    Sinutab - It comes in a pack of 15 yet you are supposed to take 2 at a time, so after 7 dosages you are left with one tablet, seriously make it 14 or 16 not bloody 15.

    In work and someone rings up and I have the following conversation:

    Them: Yeah I am just looking for a number for x?

    Me: Ok its 086

    Them: Oh wait I'll just grab a pen

    Me:arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggggggggggggh

    A friend (I swear) had it done for their pits. Same as you, no smell just sweat and they said it was the best thing they ever did and couldn't believe they waited so long.
    Was very reasonable too and they only bother doing it once a year.

    When my brother boils the kettle, then walks off for 5mins up stairs/bathroom/outside, comes back down and boils it again, and sometimes even another boil.
    Just make the fecking tea, and drink it.
    Don't set off the loud kettle more times than is needed.
