  1. That's what I do with my partner. It's a warm arrangement.
  2. To be honest I don't obsess too much about interest on savings here. Yes, rates are lower than the U.K. but so is the tax rate on savings if you qualify. For the amount you need to keep here it's not a huge difference. I'm much more concerned about where the exchange rate is, as that's where you can really lose out.
  3. Looking at the stats around the world it seems that infections roughly double in the first 4-6 months then start dropping, so these figures are worrying but not unexpected. The U.K with a similar population has had over 3,500 cases and The Netherlands with a quarter of the population over 1,200. U.S. has had over 22,000 confirmed. Still, it's something for the anti-LBGT "troupe" (sic) to clutch their pearls over I guess. ????
  4. In the last Grand Prix in the Netherlands there were 86 overtaking manoeuvres in one lap, a new record. GP drivers deserve every penny they get, considering the risks. And there's a lot more drugs in cycling. I love both.
  5. The whole idea of a gentleman's club is that women aren't allowed. This is rather the antithesis of that. Lads club would be more appropriate.
  6. I imagine it's certainly less fashionable with the advent of the myriad body lotions and sprays available these days. Mind you, Beyonce and Ariana Grande's fragrances don't do so bad. Every celebrity these days seems to have their own signature scent. Must be the younger crowd purchasing them. I know little of women's perfumes other than the odd unisex one.
  7. I remember 4711 and Blue Stratos. A lot of the older scents are still around but you have to be careful as often the formulations have changed and not for the better. Like Old Spice. 4711 was actually quite nice.
  8. Fair enough. It's not obligatory.
  9. Alcohol is better on your skin than in your guts. ???? The reason alcohol is used is because it dissipates quickly and projects the scent. I'm not familiar with Jade East but perhaps your boarding school encounter with a cheap scent coloured your opinion on them adversely. I use soap for shaving and soap or shower gel for showering.
  10. The fragrances seem ridiculously cheap. I don't really want to import. Too much of a blind buy. Thanks anyway though. ????
  11. Never tried Davidoff. I'll have a look. Thanks
  12. Someone who smells good is a "girly man" ? Lol Women seem to be more driven by scent while attraction for men was driven by what they saw. That's really no surprise because men are naturally attracted to the shape, body proportions, skin and face of a woman. However, women rate a man's body smell as most important when choosing a potential partner. A majority of the male population do not wear a fragrance. Why would you want to spend $50-$100 on a bottle of perfume? Does it make any difference? Yes, it does. https://www.realmenrealstyle.com/women-desire-mens-scent/#:~:text=Women seem to be more,when choosing a potential partner. Try it bignok. Women will adore you.
  13. Yes, that does he trick. After a while it helps drive them away too.
  14. Hermes. I'll investigate. You should never put cologne or EDT on your face, just the neck, sides and back. Some say on the shirt but I never bother. Aftershave or toner on the face as it has much less alcohol. Thanks Jelli
  15. Still a scent virgin then. How do you attract the ladies, bignok?
  16. Prefer the Eau De Toilette eh? ????
  17. I ran out of cologne recently and I'm looking for something new. I was toying with another bottle of Eternity For Men, which I like, but when trying a tester at our local Robinsons it doesn't seem quite the same anymore and they wanted BHT 4,500 for it. I'm looking for something for the day, summery and fresh, possibly aquatic tones or beachy. Any recommendation for a good cologne or EDT around BHT 2,000 or less available here?
  18. I've noticed that using a VPN sometimes sends this process into a loop. Switching it off temporarily solves the problem.
  19. According to his book he also has "startling evidence" that God exists. Usual stuff.
  20. Don't forget Paul Simon: Counting the cars on the New Jersey TurnpikeThey've all come to look for AmericaAll come to look for AmericaAll come to look for America It's just shorthand for the USA, for lots of Americans as well as foreigners. Americans often refer to England when they mean the U.K. but that's fine, we know what they mean.
  21. It's true that Western art was influenced and sponsored by religion because that's where the money was. However artistic and cultural expression pre-dates Christ by at least 8,000 years. Art and musical instruments have been found from the Early Neolithic period.
