    They look good for Margo from 'The Good Life'
    but they are not for me .I am more of a Barbara I like to garden in green wellies and jeans with dirty knees.

    Had a look at the link.

    :eek: The prices look a bit steep - do they think we 'girlies' are daft? :rolleyes:

    This is off-thread, I'm sorry - but what's happening to the ratings? Has someone been downgrading people? I see Liz is on 4 and jjordie on 3 - and a new member got a 1 star before he'd posted more than once. Odd??

    It seems a system that's open to abuse - as Froggy or Tortuosa said (can't remember which) - they were hiding their rating as someone had downed them.

    BTW - I don't like pink stuff either, and buy ultra basic functional things! We're all Barbaras!

    My ratings went steadily down hill so I thought that my organic style was upsetting some of you. So I switched off my star ratings.

    Thanks Banana Man - have retuned the favour ;)
    I just saw them & didn't really look at the price, but with a birthday looming - they would be more greatfully recieved (and used) than a basket of smellies which would no doubt bring me up in a nasty rash!!!! :D

    Hornbeam, You have been an inspiration to me, I find it impossible to believe that you have upset somebody.....something strange going on? ;)

    I dont know too much about the ratings but as far as I know you cant down rate anyone so as to why anyone should be losing stars is a mystery to me. :confused:
    Think I've lost one myself. :rolleyes:

    Think a low rating lowers your average...It's obvious low ratings are being awarded to down grade members.
    Hide 'em and don't give whoever the satisfaction ;)

    Anyway - as far a pink goes - I never did do pink, but in a house full of males, it sort of pushes you there!!! (and I tend to do it as a wind up ;)The pinker, fluffier and sparkle-ier, the better!!!!! :D
