    I know why your channel is so great Helen….it’s because you don’t give us advice, do's and don’ts , no lectures about what suits us, what we should be wearing etc. You do the opposite and ask our opinions which is really much nicer I think xx.

    Thanks Helen for another enjoyable haul I loved the white/black spotted dress and your shoes very elegant, can't believe it was only. £45 ! I agree it would be lovely for a wedding. Thankyou for the reminder of Bowel test, we only did ours last year but it reminded me that it's time for my mammogram! Unfortunately once you are over 75 these tests are no longer automatically given, the responsibility has to come from yourself to contact the NHS, so thanks for the nudge for the other end of me😂 luvnhugs Margaret

    The blue and white dress the third one looked fabulous on you, and the colour really made your eyes pop. Definitely buy that dress.

    Always enjoy watching you Helen, take no notice of the moaners, who cares, I'm an auxiliary nurse in Cheshire and work in a hospital and we get some rude people sometimes a thick skin is required x

      I know, I need to grow one. I've never been very good at that. But I'm getting better I promise xx

    The blue dress in the 16 was lovely. The green reminded me of chocolate lime sweets! Thanks again for a great haul and braving the 16 vs 18 dilemma
