The plumber had to come to the hot tap in my bathroom the other day. (All mod cons 'ere ,lady) and I was only thinking how much he must have felt I was one of the most glamorous, sophisticated women he had been to.

Arrayed in my bathroom are Vosene, Wrights Coal-Tar Soap AND Eucryl tooth powder.
How similar to the Kardashians in every detail!

I'll bet it was the original medicated Vosene, on the shelf?

Actually, despite having my own teeth, I have Streradent tablets in my bathroom.
I use them to clean cups, and teaspoons, and tupperware containers that have been stained by tomato. :-)

Yes, Bob, it was the original medicated.

We are of an age and had somebody do something in the bedroom, I can't remember what.

Imagine my chagrin when I went in afterwards and found we had left something quite embarrassing on the bedside table.

Yes, it was a bottle of wood glue!
