Eyebrow threading

[shaneystar2]

Have any of you ladies had this done ?
I was in town this morning and there was a stand in the shopping centre and they were doing eyebrow threading for a fiver .I dithered :)
Does it hurt ? My eyebrows are nowhere near as thick and dark as they used to be these days but I was wondering if it might make them "look" neater and thicker.

Gone overcast andf is so unbearably humid and hot, can't take much more.

I ate beans with cheese on toast, two eggs and bacon, just what I fancied, Mr N is doing his own, just too damned hot.

Woofy isn't there some plug in that calms dogs, (plugs into the leccy, not the dog!) There is one for cats.

Yes there is Neti, it used to be called DAP, can't remember the new name, tried that and it didn't help. Happily the weather seems to have passed now and peace reigns. Oight oight all.

Oh that's a shame Jno ..I hope she soon finds something .The workplace is a precarious place to be these days .
Hope your woofers have calmed down now Woofy .Shaney didn't like thunderstorms or fireworks .He never panicked ,he just used to try and bark louder and drown it out ,then we used to get howling wolf impressions !
Accu got it completely wrong for us today .It's been warm and sunny and we only had a short shower this evening .
Time for bed at shaneytowers ..Oight Oight .

We have been out. It was cool with no rain. Shughy slept all night and didn't panic. Normal service has been resumed.

We had a Flemish Bouvier when I first arrived here, huge great big fluffy thing but oh my what a coward when it thundered, he hurtled into the house and shivered behind a chair, and when he got wet he became so thin as he was all coat. We called him "Perro" which is dog in Spanish. He was famous in this town. His great enemy was a Podenco called Sidartur and if they ever met, it was like high noon in the village one dog at each end of the road slowly walking towards each other for a huge fight, we always had to rush in and grab one or the other. He was good at escaping from the house was Perro. He ended up in India cos he was chasing sheep whcih is not surprising as he was a sort of sheep dog.

Morning each...just saying hello before sweti starts jumping up and down in a huff.
I love shaggy, fluffy, wooly dogs but they need a lot of extra care (and money). If I was fitter/richer I'd love a labradoodle.

Don't worry jno, I'm sure your future d-i-l will have a new job in no time. As one door closes....

[woofgang]

Back from dropping sis off at the coach station. I couldn't manage the coat of a hairy dog, also the ticks are harder to spot, so I go for smooth coats. That podengo is beautiful but I understand that they can be devils to train...so unlike my own dear well behaved boys (rolls eyes).
I think I'll catch up on my sleep deficit.....laters all
sorry to hear about your son's partner jno, I hope she finds something soon. I had never realised until now how good we had it in the seventies.

I know woofy in my day there was always work, always knew there would be qa job. When we came back from Spain in 1978 we both had jobs within 4 days, but of course, we wanted to work. had to sit in the DHSS to get some paper or other and the woman was so awful until she found out we were not scroungers and she let a out a big sigh and said, just sit for a while cos she was fed up with the others.

I know, when we first came to this country we gave ourselves a month to find work (as that was all we had money for). It took about a week. Sooo easy in the good old days. I doubt I could even be taken on in my old job these days, except maybe on a zero hours contract.

[shaneystar2]

Hello all
Nice day here .Accu wrong as usual .Hope you are all Ok .
That's a lovely dog Neti .Shaney was a hair monster .You could have knitted a jumper with what I used to brush out of him .
Yes work was always easy to come by .I remember when we came back from Germany we both had jobs within a couple of weeks .

[netibiza]

Those doggie piccies are off the internet, not the actual dogs, although they did look like that. Perro was always full of burs but we managed to get rid of the ticks ok.

[netibiza]

Perro looked like a Rastafarian most of the time, and very very dusty, he was always rolling in the dry mud! He did his own thing, a real hippie dog.

wafts in reeking of rosemary

oh yes, ye goode olde dayes when companies/businesses had to promote themselves to you instead of the other way round....some even sent transport and fed you dinner to try and get you to go and work there.

Well in theory I've been tidying up the front garden (not too much to do really, mostly chopping rosemary back), in practise I've been gossiping...to men. Haha, who said men don't make small talk? They can natter just as much as women do. Anyway I learnt a few things and confirmed others so it wasn't time wasted. :)

I think it's going to be a one pan tea...

[woofgang]

ha Robi, i have got paella for tea too, deffo one pan.

[netibiza]

Well of course it is technically 2 pans, one to boil the fishheads veg etc to make the stock, then the paellera for the rest!

[woofgang]

I cheat and use the little jelly stock pots

[Robinia]

I'm still breathing into a paper bag after the thought of having a 3m x 2m garden..... gasp

[woofgang]

I know Robi, it was amazing moving here and owning 8 trees!!
