Lavender Oil

[Robinia]

Can anyone recommend a good lavender oil please? I've bought them in the past and they just didn't smell right somehow. It's mainly for refreshing wheat packs, pillows etc.

yes, Sensodyne, woofy; he thinks there might just be a tiny hole somewhere that's letting the cold in. He says as long as the pain doesn't last more than a second it's not a big problem in itself (I agree). The pain from biting is another matter, though, so I want that sorted, for the (ahem) rare occasions when I have my own eating head on..

[Robinia]

I've had a marmite butty and a cuppa while I caught up with facebookgate...lol woofy. It's drawn more attention to that thread than there ever would have been, I hadn't seen it. A polite behind the scenes email would no doubt have had it sorted.

How to tell if your home is warm...Go a walk to the shops.... haha, it was like an oven in here when I got back. Still some icy patches about.

jno sometimes I think I have toothache but sometimes it moves along, or up, or down and I realise they can't all be aching. I think the pain in in the bone. Blocked sinuses make my teeth ache too. I've finally got the hang of using sterimar after many months woofy, I don't think I was using enough.

This is the mini family... believe me, the pic is flattering. I think the frizz factor in their area is off the scale :)

mmmm let me think baout that mini family, are they rather sweet or freakish?? We only had ones that looked like big babies and the Little babies for their babies. The legs were bent a bit so very difficult to dress them!

Here's what we had to play with (It's the médium sized one).

[Robinia]

yes neti, we had some in various sizes like the medium one.

jno, I find macleans is better, sensodyne never seemed to help me much.
lovely family Robi, I will sort mine out and post them, neti, some of them are like your pic. Robi, your posts are making me want to pick up where i left on my dollhouse.
Have been doing some spring tidying, like spring cleaning but you ignore the dirt.

[Robinia]

woofy I'm still kicking myself, some time last year I saw an unfinished/unstarted dolls house in a local charity shop very similar to my sister's and oddly enough the front door was missing on that too. I stood looking at it for ages & wish I'd bought it now, especially in light of latest family developments. Trust ya instincts Robi.

[Robinia]

oh yes, I don't find sensodyne sensitive toothpaste helpful either but I love their toothbrushes. I've used Colgate Sensitive Pro-Relief ever since the hygenist gave me a free trial size.

I toddled over to Sainsburys with my brother earlier .Freezing cold though .My Sil stayed indoors and I don't blame her .We had a lovely hot chocolate in the cafe .
That helicopter crash is tragic .Mr S used to have to travel by helicopter out to the rigs from Norway at times .I always used to worry .
Oh that thread is ridiculous .Surely it could have been sorted off AB .It's turned into a bitchfest .Makes me glad I don't have FB or twittle .I'm sure all my drivel is out there somewhere to bore the world silly anyway.
Hahaa..I love the little dolls house family .

[Robinia]

hehe, I hope they don't start complaining about privacy after being on here shaney

[woofgang]

That's the one, I am an idiot, just checked the tube and its Colgate not macleans. That thread is getting OT and funny now and has spawned a spin off like a successful sitcom. It makes me smile when folk threaten to leave as though that will make the world end.
Get a box robi and doll house in that....I will post mine as soon as I can get to it in the muddle

[jno]

I haven't actually been cleaning my teeth much recently, woofy, because of the incision and stitches next door, and that may have played a part. But I will investigate Colgate.

This was my older sister's house, it was the one I loved and played with when she was out! I used to make the garage into a kitchen and we drew on toy bricks to make a cooker and oven etc. Great fun.

[Robinia]

aw, that's sweet neti. I changed the garage on my first dolls house into a newsagent/sweetshop. How very enterprising, haha.

[woofgang]

jno, you can just splop it on without using a brush.

Mine was a bit like this, just one room no upstairs, and mine wasn't pretty , it had gollies painted on the outside. My middle sister had a gorgeous big one with lights run by a battery put in the side of the roof, but then we couldn't afford to buy batteries too often, I was NOT allowed to used that one!!!

[shaneystar2]

From looking at various ones on the web mine was probaly similar to this

It came with a pattern and my Dad cut it all out with a fretsaw and handsaw probably .He was good at good at woodwork as are my brothers .

[woofgang]

I didn't have a dollhouse as a child, I had a farm, still got some of the animals.

[netibiza]

3/- I ask you, that is lovely, what a lovley house.

[netibiza]

My bro had a fort and I also loved playing with that, I loved the lead stretcher bearers with their stretcher, I played houses with it, not wars!!
