I totally agree Alec. I hate it when my threads go off track ... but talking of soap my wife tends to use Dove, cos its Irish, and we should always be conscious of buying Irish. I suppose if you think about it every household has a bar of soap so why not buy a bar that helps our own economy. And isn’t out economy in a terrible state at the moment. May I take this opportunity to point out that the third lady in the following advertisement for soap has an unnaturally large brazier.


Sorry Al...what were you saying again...
