Looking at the blurb for my new Lacura WrinkleStop from Aldi, I see that its active ingredient has been ‘proven to help • Reduce forehead wrinkles by 52% • Reduce crow’s feet by 24% • Restrict 82% of wrinkle muscle activity’ That’s quite a claim, isn’t it? Frankly, after years when my face looked like a lunar landscape thanks to the joys of acne, these days I’m just grateful to see a fairly blemish-free skin. Part of me wants to believe that the wonder cream’s making everything looking a bit smoother and tidier, but, hey, there’s also a lot of ‘aqua’ and ‘glycerin’ in the stuff, too. Besides, I could tamper with my skin as much as I like (and I don’t), but I’ve only got to stand next to my beautiful daughters to see the difference.

You're Blessed with gorgeous daughters... and your gift.
Enjoy,

And well done for conquering your nerves. You sound very calm!

(Great to hear that two more books are bubbling along now.)

Lane, I thought I might have to run away at one point, so thank you! And it was a beautiful day...not that I'm biased!
Frances, the temptation was to fill the blog with photos, but it was, after all, Their Special Day so not for me to broadcast too many. And thank you for your kind comments about the interview - the time flew by but, gosh, did I feel nervous!
And congratulations surviving being on the radio. I can only imagine how nerve wracking it was. Way to overcome your nerves and give a stellar performance. The audio doesn't let on how nervous you are!
I heard the interview from FB and I didn't think you sounded nervous at all! It was great to hear you. xx
You sounded wonderful!

Aw, thanks, Jenny. Doing live radio was a very strange experience - on one hand you're just having a conversation with a new person... and on the other hand you know there's a wider audience listening to you!
Liz, it was such a lovely day - hard to believe the sun shone when it's pouring down again today! How are you with radio?

Off to listen now...
And well done on your radio interview, must be quite nerve wracking, being a celebrity!
Wisewebwoman,yes, it truly was, thank you.
Liane - it was a bit of a miracle that we saw the sun shine that day - did yo send some over?
Posie - just nerve-wracking, not so much celebrity!
It was a proud day, Sue.. the radio interview, as you know, nearly tore me in half beforehand, but they were very gentle with me.
You sound very calm in your interview, did you have a little something in with your water...?!
