Aye that's the one. From their blurb...

Every 3 metre square of the world has been given a unique combination of three words.
Used for e-commerce and delivery, navigation, emergencies and more.


It's a bulletproof system, used it a few times now.

^ Impressive and worth keeping in mind. How well known is it in the industries? I don't think i've heard it mentioned among my fellow couriers.

Very good.

I was serious about the squeaking - just thinking about it is making my teeth feel weird.

Hahaha, we were brought up on that. It seems so.. alien now.

My hands aren't silky soft though. They feel weird. I'm a textural person and i hate this feeling !!

Hmm, not sure they've made that claim for some time. Looking at the bottle, it just says 'Fairy Original'. It does claim 'lift action'. And it's endorsed by the Queen (god bless her).

Yeah, i may give 'em a go

I'm seeing a walking toddler in a nappy..

It's a lovely melody - sort of like a lullaby. Sweet dreams...

When people seem to want friendship and reach out to you and you give them a chance and make the effort with them and then they randomly put an end to things. I don't think I'll bother again, it feels pointless investing in anything since it's happened several times on here now.

^ That's a tricky one, but no-one can ever guarantee that friendships will work, sometimes you get to know eachother a bit more and it just doesn't work out.

Over confident people. People who are so confident they think their opinions are facts.

When you see a photo online where a couple or family have tried to recreate a photo from their past, but someone's face is at slightly the wrong angle or their arm position is off a little or whatever, and it could have been absolutely perfect if they'd just made a tiny adjustment but they didn't and so they might as well have not bothered.
