Consider it done, just so long as you don't want La Prairie, I can
oblige :-)

La Prairie - fat chance!! *But I'll be very grateful for the Baume. *The
French Chemist in Jersey that used to sell it has disappeared.

BTW, meant to say that if you can get hold of the Baume, do get some for
yourself. *My Italian mother outlaw put me on to it years ago and I've been
a devotee ever since. *I recommend it highly for burns, including sunburn,
as long as there's no open wound. *It's made from a multitude of herbs, bees
wax and propolis AFAIR and is absolutely brilliant at relieving the pain of
a burn. *It's good for e.g. dry lips from winter gardening and walks. *If
any urglers are going to France, try to find it because it's great for
nettle stings, too!

The Pharmacy at Venet la Varenne are sure to have it and if they don't
they will order anything, they are wonderful. I was in there when our
GP came in, I got 2 kisses on the cheek, and asked how I was. I said
" fine thanks, I'm just going to put my arm in the blood pressure
machine" he waited to see the result, nodded approvingly, kissed me
goodbye and off he went, I didn't get that in England.

They sell the most wonderful Eau de Cologne made with Iris and Lily of
the Valley, I sprayed it on liberally and smelled just like a perfumed
garden.
