    @Oreti that's good about your friend's husband, yes it's the same that my hubby has. He can take the bandage off tomorrow and keep the dressing on. I have to keep an eye on him just incase he does something that he shouldn't.

    @Doghouse Riley good that you sorted your heater delivery.

    My friend does Avon and every time she gets a parcel delivered by Evri the box is always damaged.

    According to my wife, I'm always doing something I shouldn't!

    I think men are like that and probably women too, including me.

    Gosh do they still have Avon reps that go door to door!!!
    I use to sell Avon...40 years ago and Tupperware.

    Avon isn't the same now they seem to sell a bit of everything....shame. The good thing is you can buy the make -up/ beauty products in many Superdrug shops now ....I still use a few of their items and buy them there.

    I finally got round to cleaning my golf clubs and trolley, now my hot water supply is again available in the garage. I have to do it in the drive as it makes such a mess.

    @Oreti yes can still get Avon door to door, but it's not really worth it because the reps have to buy the bags, order forms, brochures and have to pay a small delivery charge.My friend Marion does it, can order online from Avon or Amazon but they sell different things that's in the brochures and get offers in the brochures. I don't go into town and it helps Marion . this is anyone who doesn't know Avon.
