          Well, it's true, I am a bit accident-prone…  At least trashing a few bottles of liquid soap won't be as expensive as last time I trashed the car (and then a few days later G's laptop).  Just gotta keep well away from G's new Aero jacket...!

          Have Dr B travel sizes in peppermint, tea tree, eucalyptus, almond, baby (unscented), lavender - from memory that's probably about it.

          All, let me know what you want to sample and it will be sorted!

              We can buy all of Dr B's stuff in bulk right up the street from me.  It's awesome stuff.

                Mrs. G, could I possibly sample the Eucalyptus? Thanks!

                  Yes, indeed - eucalyptus samples set aside for Beats and LC.  First one I've tried is almond, it's lovely - just like marzipan.

                  🙂

                          Something I also 'recommend': putting leather inlay soles in your shoes. All my sneakers have a leather insole. Much better for your feet. Keeps your shoes clean as well.

                              You get a little less sock fuzz with leather insoles

                                    Nah leather works better to prevent odours. I never am bothered with smelly feet, even after 8-10 hours of running about the workplace during a hectic day, but the leather helps with that.

                                    I don't even know what 'sock fuzz' is  :-\

                                      I hate sock fuzz! I used to be a nutcase when I was in my sneaker obsession days and would clean my soles with a toothbrush after every wear as well as de-fuzzing the insides. I know, I am a creep.  ::) These days, I don't mind it at all but do pull it off if it gets noticeable…

                                        It's the fuzzies you get inside of your shoes from rubbing against your socks and…ohnevermind...

                                            For insoles, try these:
                                            http://www.amazon.com/Pedag-187-Longitudinal-Metatarsal-Womens/dp/B001E5CLOS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=shoes&qid=1269900371&sr=8-1

                                            Pedag Viva from Germany. Have never had better insoles and am thrilled they are available in the US. Price is totally justifiable. They are more sturdy than any other insoles I've had. The activated carbon works super well at keeping your feet fresh and the orthopedic shape works wonders to keep them from tiring out.
