That's not good Steve :( It's at this time of our lives we need to really start looking after ourselves again...


Never going to happen Jim.
Visiting a doctors surgery is an absolute nightmare due to the cleaning products and air fresheners they use.
I will just not have to fall ill.

When my wife was dying I couldn't go in to the hospice to see her solely due to air fresheners and perfumes. Outside was as bad with people smoking.

Gosh yes Steve, I can appreciate just what a nightmare that is... Those sorts of places do reek somewhat and it makes me feel pretty nauseous...

I'm like you with all artificial perfumes. I detest them and none more than the smellies women like to splash all over themselves :twisted: Horrid stuff...

it is rarely the women Jim, it's the blokes, stink to high heaven. Frequently have to abandon shopping due to pongy blokes.

I use this, it's even better than bo. I'm allergic to prity much everything on my skin so it was hard to find. Scentless as well.

All hippie shops sell it. There's a spray as well, both are good and don't sting.

H and B is dangerous for me, generally go in for a soya milk shake and come out with half the store.

Pack of 2 on Amazon for £8.98

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Crystal-Spring ... B008E4O85C

You can also buy 1-litre refill bottle for £20 which is pretty good value as it'll fill 11 90ml ones up which would cost you £50 or so otherwise.

Good spot, I hadn't seen that. Will save me a few pennies.

Yes, it does closely approach that option.

Perhaps I should go for this one:

Sanex is the one I currently use and the only one I find agrees with me... All the others I'm like you James... Allergic to. Nothing worse than a nasty rash in your armpits, especially when you're as active as me...
