Conditioner as handcream

Has anyone tried using conditioner as handcream? It's the most fantastic way of making your hands soft. It's like an expensive serum, and since hair and skin are made of more or less the same stuff...

towels in public toilets

Am I right to think that to dry your hands on a towel in a public toilet (after washing the first, obviously) is one of the most unhygenic things you can do? It always makes me cringe when I see this...

Janice Battersby

Does anyone know why Janice Battersby came back into Corrie after leaving? I absolutely loathe her, she's got a hideous ape-like face, aggressive expression, and a gob the size of the Mersey tunnel. I...

kisses

Why do we put X to represent a kiss? It seems just to be a thing in English, I haven;t seen any other languages use it. Is it just a British convention? Why do we choose X and not, say, k for example?

Fears/phobias

Does anyone have a phobia that isn't of the run-of-the-mill variety (spiders, heights etc), something really unusual? I remember a woman who had a phobia about coal.

The Hotel Inspector

Are there any other fanatics of this programme? I think it's the best thing on TV at the moment (probably be beaten by Trawlermen though). She's brilliant; her reactions as she goes into these failing...

Bono's Spanish

Can anyone tell me why Bono says 'Uno, dos, tres, catorce' at the beginning of that song Vertigo? It really bugs me. Unless there's some underlying reason why he starts a song by saying 'One, two,...

Shadows of Fear

Is there anyone in the world who remembers this ITV series 1970-1971? It was brilliant, really scary and tense.

What's wrong with this?

Can anyone suggest why I have had the word '*********' bleeped out on one of my replies? Maybe you won't be able to tell me because this word will be bleeped out again in this question......

Fat legs?

I've just found to my horror that my long boots, which fit me perfectly well before the heatwave, are now impossible to zip up, even though the hot weather has taken a dive. Is this normal?

Favourite food smell

I recently read an article on people's favourite smells. By far the top was coffee, and there was oranges, vanilla etc. Reasons given were mainly nostalgic. What are people's favourite food smells,...

Dracula ice lollies

Weren't these called Dracula's blood? They tasted of liquorice and blackcurrant. Does anyone remember a pink ice lolly called Mint Rocker, around the same time as the Fruity Blue and Lord Toffingham,...
