[Kate]

[Emma]

:Oi: this is what this forum is for!

Ooh

I know there's a Waitrose here somewhere... must try and find my way there

[lolly]

Just out of interest, how much do tampons cost?

I'll bet if men needed them, they would have been free on the NHS YEARS ago.

[Kate]

I don't really notice :shy:

[lolly]

Well I guess if you have to have them, the price is irrelevant

[Emma]

a few quid - actually i have no idea. it's just the kind of thing you buy without thinking about it.

ACTUALLY i had a bit of a situation the other day. we've demolished the bathroom ready to get the new one put in and ed kindly THREW AWAY an entire box of tampax RIGHT in the middle of my needing them. i was NOT best pleased. although i've seen the funny side of it now.

[Kate]

TSK

Oh I hope these organic tampons have handbag-proof covers

[Emma]

haha, Ed told me off for buying the compact ones - he said the plastic applicators are outrageously wasteful and bad for the environment.

[Kate]

Well, tampons coming out of their packets and getting all grubby is bad for your MINGE.

[Emma]

i've started to get lillets non applicators. they are more discreet in your handbag.

[Kitty Kat]

i don't see the point of applicator ones.
that website looks good, and their stuff is BUAV approved. :D

[Kate]

i don't see the point of applicator ones.

Well they mean you don't have to stick your fingers up there... :gross:

[Kitty Kat]

Well they mean you don't have to stick your fingers up there... :gross:

But your fingers still touch it, and still have to wash your hands the same. What's the problem?

[Joseph]

it's fun to soak tampons in the toilet water and throw them up on the ceiling at work... eventually some poor unsuspecting girl finds one falling on her head when it dries up :D

[Kate]

No problem, I just prefer not to have to go ALL the way up there... especially when my nails are long

[Kitty Kat]

i s'pose it's just what i was started on, so i've never thought of changing.

[Rachey]

I like lil lets, they have really nice smooth applicators. Not a fan of the non applicator ones.

tho i very rarely need them anyway...once every 3 ish months...:(

[Pipo]

tampons = period blood :grr: :o :( :Oi:

[Rachey]

Like little wet red mice :)

[Pipo]

Rachey, our cats have killed yet another mouse and it's the third this week! We're infested :(

[Rachey]

eeww no....are they in your garden? Poor mice :( Tell the cats off

[Raucous Bitch]

If you really want to be environmentally friendly you need ones of those cups things.

VILE.

I like Lil-lets applicator ones. I prefer width ways to length expansion. Hahaha, as if I am discussing the merits of TAMPONS.

Anyways, whilst we are on the subject. TOWELS. Disgusting. I just don't agree with them AT ALL.

WHY would anyone OPT to squidge around in their period blood??

WHY???

[Rachey]

I agree!! And i hate how you can actually FEEL the blood oozing out as well..its just WRONG :zombie:

I dont even use them at night.

[Raucous Bitch]

Exactly!!!!

Sitting there STINKING and OOZING all day long is just not NICE.

[Emma]

who bloody does use them?

hideous things.

[Raucous Bitch]

My mother and sister, apparently. Dirty bastards.

[Kate]

I remember the day I first managed to get a tampon in. It was JOYOUS

[Jimmy]

Are they made of organically reared HEMP? Great thread btw. :D

[Joseph]

ALWAYS insert into the right hole
