As I owe you a favour for a shrub, I have 2 x Savon de Marseille of
300
grammes each, which is 72% huile d'olive, I will send them to you on
Monday.

JudithL at home

p.s. I am off to France on 7th February for a few days, does anyone
want me to bring any back? If so email me and if you live locally,
i.e. Norfolk, I will deliver it free.

I see it's available from

Damned expensive way to wash one's face, if you ask me, but you didn't.
While doing the brief Ggl, I was shocked but not surprised (if that's
not an oxymoron) to see that the Body Shop sells something it calls
"olive soap" which is actually just ordinary palm oil soap with a trace
of olive oil: another reason, apart from the nauseating smell, to avoid
the Body Shop.

Not just the face! But no, I wouldn't want to buy the sort of thing you
describe - it just isn't the Real Thing.
