I suspect our Amazon reviewer embroidered it a bit, as I said above, but in all honesty it's more like a Bayeux Tapestry at this point!Treadershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613671137557939083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4674486998769998428.post-21981540909017007812020-09-23T19:25:58.030+01:002020-09-23T19:25:58.030+01:00I am sitting here rolling laughing!

The only time I've stopped for someone when driving has been a couple of old ladies lugging groceries home in the pouring rain and a young girl in the same situation. Sadly I won't stop for any man and definitely not these scammers, but it does frighten me somewhat as they always hang out along the more isolated back roads. I've seen 6 postings of the guy holding out the cash already this week, and always in different spots. I'd suggest he kept his money and used it to buy a better car if I had the nerve to stop - you know, a car that doesn't keep breaking down. And as for Veet, I remember sometime ago - probably in the 60s when it was fashionable to have pencil-thin eyebrows. One of the girls I knew used Veet on her eyebrows and had to walk around with two slug-sized scabs on her head for a couple of weeks, hence I wouldn't touch the stuff!Treadershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613671137557939083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4674486998769998428.post-71748344630121870302020-09-23T08:12:40.766+01:002020-09-23T08:12:40.766+01:00Oh if I don't like Dr. Z I won't finish it...Oh if I don't like Dr. Z I won't finish it as I think life's too short to read a bad book. I also like hairy men (hairy women not so much), although I do balk at the gorilla look! And nope, I don't get this trend for bare-skinned men either - although it is somewhat pleasing to think of men having to wax all that hair off. I think they did a scene in Friends where Chandler and Joey tried waxing and it was brilliant (of course)!Treadershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613671137557939083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4674486998769998428.post-64309574525573824042020-09-23T05:37:40.287+01:002020-09-23T05:37:40.287+01:00When I sewed in public and this old lady tried to ...When I sewed in public and this old lady tried to help me, I asked her not to. She would not take the hint and kept smoothing the knit material until it was three inches longer than originally. Finally, the teacher had to tell her to quit. Really, you need to tell her you want to do it "all by yourself." <br /><br />I have never heard of or seen that flower, but it is very pretty. <br /><br />Please don't stop for anyone. <br /><br />I happen to like hairy men, but that was so funny about the guy applying the depilatory to his dangly bits. Tommy laughed, too.

The review is interesting. As for Veet? I think fur should stay where it is.
