I am extreeeemely aware of deoderant smell in my significant others. Mr. Clod's deoderant must be one particular fragrance--Old Spice High Endurance Original--and no other. It especially can't be one of several deoderants worn by ex-boyfriends, but really, it just has to be that one, I can accept no substitutes. I am sort of terrified that someday they will discontinue it.

Yuppers. It's the best I've found. And not super expensive either. I've been using it for years.
Somebody say thread drift?
Bullshit.
Thread drift may irk you, but usually works out in the end.

There's scent in my:
  • shampoo
  • conditioner
  • body wash
  • antiperspirant
  • lotion
  • hair gel
  • mouthwash
Pretty soon, I'm smelling like a freakin' arboretum.

I love Gain. I wash stuff that isn't dirty just to get the Gain smell going.

I use unscented products whenever I can. I think my shampoo is the only thing that stinks, but it's not too bad. Oh, and toothpaste. But the toothpaste is actually nice.

Just to update on the tax refund situation - in case anyone was hanging on...

Turns out ALL the advice I had was incorrect in some way, and most of it way off.
After waiting over two weeks, my P45 was returned to me with a note to say that the DWP does not issue tax refunds, and I had to contact my local tax office. Funnily enough, they were the people I called back at the beginning of April.

So I still don't know what the correct thing to do is officially - over 8 weeks later.

But I've sent what I have to the postal address in Cardiff, which I have been advised has a 7 week backlog of post. And I've now put it out of my head, because it will happen or it won't, and I've done all I can, following advice in good faith to end up where I started.

Anyway, the real thing that irked me, but will work out just fine is that my bank applied a 64p interest charge to my account last week. Which put me 54p over my agreed overdraft limit of £120. And that 120 was already there solely to pay back fines imposed by said bank for previous minor infractions. It was reducing at £20 a month, for which pleasure I was being charged, having had no pleasure from the money in the first place.

This means I have £59 for the next two weeks. Oh except bills come out at the beginning of the month, so in fact I have £24. £9 after I go to London on Wednesday - something I will not cancel, frivolous as it now seems.

I could have argued the toss. But that will be the third time I've had to, and I just thought - enough is enough. I'll now have two lean weeks, then this stupid reducing overdraft, which I was having real trouble keeping track of, is out of my hair. As is the £20 every month. As is petty little interest charges making big differences to my known finances.

I have Diz food and litter, and I have a cupboard full of food I can't keep stockpiling. So it's all for the best in the long run.
