Maybe I'll learn something.

Hey Michael,
Just checking in. Hope you're doing well!!

It has been a rough week. Monday I had a blowout on the highway. I have been sick all week so I didn’t get to discount tire till today. Sadly I messed up the rim. That jacked the price up from 98 plus 400 for the rim. I’m still waiting for it to be done. So tired. Coughing constantly. I haven’t been able to sleep or eat all week.

Oh dear Glob. I hope you feel better soon, Michael.

Sorry to hear that man!
Hang in there, it'll all come together in the end.
It always does!!

Hope things get better Michael, wishing you the best.

Jumping on the bandwagon, Michael. I hope things sort themselves out with you feeling better and no situations that you have to deal with.

Thanks for all the well wishes guys.
I do appreciate it.

Sorry I have been busy all day. I hope you feel better soon Michael and sorry to hear about the unplanned expense. Did you already get it replaced? There are services that can repair wheels.

The wheel had it. I took the car in early when I got up and the entire parking lot at Discount Tire was full. Took until after 5. I was so ready for it to be done. Got back home and pretty much turned in to a couch tater.

I think that's a good thing, you deserve it!

Sorry to that, Michael. Here's to things getting better.

Sorry you are having such a rough time, man.

I hope you feel better soon. You don't think maybe you picked up C19 over Xmas? It's still around and still nasty. I had it this time last year and coughed so hard I put my back out.

Hang in there Michael. I hope the coughing has lessened enabling you to get some sleep and recoup.

Cheers,

One of my favourites Lavanda - excellent cream! The splash is hard(er) to get here for some odd reason as the brand is from Portugal.

Enjoy!

It works well as a cream, and, I like that it is in a tube. The splash is not bad either. Still there are other Lavender scented products I like better.

This begs the question which Michael. I like Lavender as scent, but I see limited options readily available in this side of the pond.

Thanks,

Guido

Well @Guido75 my favorite is available from the UK, though the soap has been reformulated. It is also fairly expensive. Czech and Speake Oxford and Cambridge. I have a few more pucks of the Valobra made variety. I haven't tried the new stuff yet since I have 2 full size pucks and 4 travel pucks left. I also have a 2 or 3 of the Fine Lavender Pour Homme which was based on Oxford and Cambridge before it was discontinued. This is my favorite lavender scent bar none. It is a lavender and mint type scent. I never got around to trying B&M Lavender, though I think it has been discontinued now. As long as You get just the puck and not the aluminum tub of Oxford and Cambridge it is like 22 UKP. The splash however is very expensive as is the cologne.

 

[Guido75]

Thanks! Found an on shore shop in Italy carrying this. It is indeed a bit pricey, but I might get it further down the line.

The puck only for just over 20 UKP is a good deal. The aluminum tin with the same soap for 125 UKP is just dumb expensive. I only have a little left of the Fine Lavender Pour Homme splash left so I will use the Oxford and Cambridge once it is gone despite it's high price.
