Porkies

And what an excellent news day it turned out to be

First, the headline in today's Evening Standard...


(cheers for that Ian)


and then, tucked away in the letters section of today's
Daily Mail...





Fairly standard Daily Mail fare admittedly but there's something peculiar about the writer's name that I just can't quite put my finger on...

Choosing the right perfume can be difficult and because it is also considered an intimate gift buying the wrong perfume can backfire on you and get you the opposite result of that which you hoped for.

The first thing you need to do is do some homework, meaning research. Look at your lady's perfume bottles, the ones that are nearly empty will be her favorites. If there is one there that is nearly full chances are she doesn't wear it often or doesn't like it. Hint around and ask her what types of fragrances she likes and dislikes.

Humans are very sensory oriented and our sense of smell is no different. Certain perfumes can elicit strong reactions in both the wearer and the person reacting to the scent. Perfumes are made not only to attract but to also relax someone. If you aren't totally sure what kind of perfume to buy you can always play it safe and get something in the aromatherapy line. If you go this route, bear in mind that vanilla scents are considered to relax and a peppermint or lemon scent will be more stimulating.

Many ladies complain about that problem, the position is just on the tip of my tongue.

... and finish off with some crushed nuts and raspberry syrup.

But where to put the chocolate flake?

Chocolate Flake a la Mick Jagger is a well known confection - be warned ! Puts weight on yer hips (ask Marianne Faithfull) and tends to attract bluebottles.
