Not half as much as she does, particularly as she needs to stock up on Cedratine as well.

I still have 2 Bottles of Cedratine left but my Boukha and Thibarine are getting low

And it make matters worse my daughter dropped the last bottle of Tunisian Muscat all over the kitchen floor poor dog had to see the vets after getting slightly tipsy off it

Need to get new supply in May hope everything is on the mend by then

Always said I was going to come back as a dog or Gok Wan

I don't like Thibarine or Boukha but am very partial to Cedratine. I've never tried the Muscat so a little more info on that would be very welcome.

You may find this website useful for information http:/www.ansamed.info/en/tunisia/

Had a quick look at that Crispy but doubt they will give any info on Muscat. I was, however, amused to see there was a link to this page amongst all the others. It said there were 11 posts and 4 authors - wonder whose they are.

Get your bags packed Aslemma, FCO have changed their travel advice - Good news for everyone !

That's very good news!......Now all I need is a big lottery win and i'm sorted lol

The latest updated advice can be viewed here http://www.fco.gov.uk/en/travel-and-living-abroad/travel-advice-by-country/middle-east-north-africa/tunisia/

This is the first day since it started that I haven't spent checking the net for info so I missed the news. As I am booked with BA, who never stopped flying, and have never been one personally to heed advice, there wasn't much chance that I wouldn't go, but it's nice to know that there might be some other guests in the hotel apart from myself.

Hello everyone,
Its great to read that many people plan to return as soon as possible, I know myself and family can`t wait to return and also german friends who will be returning this year.
This will be 10th time for us and i honestly can`t see us changing to a different destination, as i said before those who return year after year will not be put off , so i think that there will still be plenty of tourists to keep it all ticking over :-)
Here`s wishing everybody has another fantastic time in Tunisia,
Take care be safe.............ENJOY

Hello Aslemma,
nice to see another coffee person here
cant wait to be having my double espresso`s and croisants for breakfast

AnneJ0505 was just telling me about Argon oil which you can apparently get in the Soula Centre in Sousse which is absolutely wonderful for your complexion and it reminded me of a hilarious experience I had the other year. I had forgotten to pack any moisturiser and as my face was feeling a bit dry I thought I'd pick up something in the Medina. Now I may speak a very little Arabic but certainly don't read it, so when a saw a pretty little pot of something with a picture of a blonde lady and a rose on the lid I surreptitiously took the lid off to have a sniff - beautiful, real rose perfume. As it was as cheap as chips I obviously bought a pot and took it back to the hotel. When I put my finger tentatively into the white mixture I found it had a consistency somewhere between blancmange and wet cement!! I think it could have been a face-mask but never did find out!

Well, my top tip for beauty purposes has to be sugar paste for epilation (that's hair removal for the uninitiated). You can make your own by boiling up sugar, water and lemon juice; I usually buy a commercial version called Sucrederme from a pharmacy. Put it in the microwave for 30 seconds on low and you're ready to go. The sugar paste sticks to the hair but not to the skin so is much less painful than wax. As it is sugar based, any excess just washes away with warm water.

Or you can lick it off if you can reach

Much more fun if someone else does that!

That thought went through my mind too dorra but I refrained from saying it.

Haven't checked the news today, so this may already be old news... Just got off the phone to a friend in Tunisia, and Mohammed Ghannouchi has resigned as Prime Minister today. It's not yet confirmed who will take his place. So Tunisia will be getting yet another change in leadership.

It's all over the news channels here. The people have been demanding this for some time as he was too closely associated with Ben Ali. Let's hope this leads to an end to the demonstrations and people can wait for the elections promised for mid-July. I know it must be hard for everyone to be patient but Rome wasn't built on a day and whatever government is voted in will be unable to fulfill all their hopes and dreams immediately, if at all. Strikes and demonstrations won't help the economy and will also discourage tourists, which are needed even more just now.
