Thank you NotaGran I've had a look, and from what I can make of it I'm a dramatic romantic!

Holly I wish my wardrobe was organised in any way, shape or form. It's a horror show! I've been constantly gaining weight, and buying new clothes to accommodate this. I really, literally, can't afford to gain any more weight!

Remover, moisturiser, tinted moisturiser, mascara, eyeliner, eye shadow palette, highlighter and shaper, lip-liner, lipstick and gloss.
No wonder my suitcase weighs so much,

What’s the furthest you’ve travelled since this last lockdown?

I don't carry a make up bag anymore. When I was young it contained powder, eyebrow pencil, lipstick and not much else.

When camping it contained soap, flannel, shampoo, hand cream, lip salve, comb and nailbrush, sunscreen.
My handbag has pockets in which I stash lip salve and eyebrow pencil. I've got some 'powder papers' somewhere - a tiny book of papers with powder impregnated on them to prevent a shiny nose - not used for ages.

Yes, a clean pair of knickers! (Never used may I add)

Multi task. I find it very hard not to and whilst I’m doing one thing I am thinking of the next.
