Not really a question related to swinging other than the association between soft fabrics on your body that your partner would love to peel off you... or soft towels you'd love to wrap yourself in.
It's been over a year now that I have found out that the fabric conditioners do not soften the clothes. I use the indicated quantity, I do not over/under load the washing machine and I dry the clothes naturally, yet they are as hard as cardboard.
I rang the manufacturer and complained and we went through a series of questions to try to find what I was doing wrong (why should Ibe doing something wrong? It's them who change the composition of things trying to keep one step ahead of demand all the time... quick dry... no iron... etc). Eventually I was offered a voucher. I used it to buy a different product from their range (just in case the combination of washing tablets and conditioner were not compatible) but the same result: hard clothes.
I experimented further, using no fabric conditioner at all and the clothes were softer than the ones washed with fabric conditioner.
So my question is: 'what is going on'? Are we taken for a ride by manufacturers? Mind you even the supermarket brands are not any better (Sainsbury's and Tesco's are the ones I have tried, both concentrated form and the classic form) and I suspect the reason is that they are manufactured by the same factory just under a different label.
Please let me know your experiences using fabric conditioners and maybe if we get a lot of people who have issues with them, we can get a petition through and demand some answers.
Thank you.
Funny this thread came up just as I was talking to a friend about us being nearly 40.
I remember my dad's friends talking about women in their 40s and how hot they were. I recently realised me and my school mates will be approaching that interesting ripe age in a couple of years' time.
It is strange, I don't feel old. Inside I am still the same young person I've always been.
You actually SAT down on the seat?!!!!!!! Eww! :shock:
I think the greatest discoveries were an accident. E.g. eating cooked meat instead of raw... some housewife in the Stone Age must have dropped the family meat into the fire and told her hubby and kids that this is all the new rage... And then her kids found some eggs and began throwing them at each other for play when one hit the hot stones and cooked, the dog ate it, they thought 'well what's good for the dog, is good for us!' and so on. Wouldn't it be nice though if we could be transported back in time and witness the exact moment of a discovery?
I don't think the ex Casanova actor is going to be any good in Dr Who :cry: He just doesn't have the sex appeal and the 'trust me I am a doctor' look.
Sorry Rachel, it was on Celebrity Frock Ups that I heard it. They described her as a slob and said she's about the dirtiest star and that was not in a sexy way :cry:
Well at least it is good to know that children get the best dental attention possible.
I had some white fillings done on the NHS and the job was dreadful. The colour was totally wrong, I ended up having gaps between the teeth and I felt a huge bulge where the filling was. I went back and complained after a week or two (the dentist had said the bulge would go on its own). Eventually the manager of the practice accepted to redo my teeth at a fraction of the cost of private treatment (I only paid the actual cost of the filling, the job was done free of charge). He did a brilliant job.
PS: maybe I have been lucky but I have fillings since school, that is 20+ years ago! If the dentist does a proper job to clean out the damaged part of the tooth and applies the filling carefully and gives you proper care instructions, there is no reason to replace the fillings unless they come off. Maybe modern materials are not that strong? We'll see...!
Morbius you do not need special clothes to go to a fetish club/party. You are a man. All you need to wear is a leather or black lycra thong which you can pick up online. Thongs have the advantage to fit in the narrower part of the body and the strings stretch to fit any size. It is more about the attitude than the fetish wear. Anyway, clubs will allow you to dress/undress inside - you don't have to arrive already dressed in fetish gear. And don't worry about your size - you will find men (and women) of all shapes and sizes attending such events!
Yay! Good news. I can't get till she gets back in form and tells me all about the experience. I quite fancy a water birth myself but don't think the hospital will indulge me.
Congratulations and welcome to the world little Charlotte!

I think they are the Chinese Herbal Medicine guys in the shops dotted around the country. They offer cupping and acupuncture. Don't know if they are licensed though as a physio would be.
Get a nice heat pack - the one you boil then let cool and press a disc to activate the heating process. They are wonderful for such pains and will help you get rid of the pain quickly. As for your medication, it is known to cause sleepiness and I have used them in lieu of sleeping tablets at moments of crisis! tee hee
Hope you feel better soon!
Don't you feel flattered when people find you exciting enough to wank off? I remember a fisherman in Tangiers doing just so when I was on the beach. There were no other people but me and my guide and I had lifted my skirt to go into the water. The sight of my white knees was enough to set the fisherman off in the cliffs to have a wank. My guide yelled at him but I just laughed my head off.
