Those wall soaps are an absolute French classic - you have to position them correctly so any drips don’t go on the floor, but the soaps last for ages so think how much you’ll save! 😆
Yet again, Sal — a fab read! I love a pretty soap; I have a few in the drawer, but they’ve never been opened or used. Yours are crème de la crème! They would go well in a downstairs loo or utility room. 😊
Thanks for the read. Oh, by the way — how could you have left that blouse behind? You’re slipping, Sal! 😂 x
We have those soaps, one by the sink in the kitchen, and one by the sink in the utility, I absolutely love them and they last forever! Also, and yes I am shouting, WHY DIDN’T YOU BUY THE BLOUSE?!!
Ha! Cheap cheese guy! Wondering if it’s the same one we encountered last year! 🥴😂 managed to sell us a sliver of cheap cheese for 18 euros. Delicious but the most expensive cheese I have ever bought! 😂
I was in a cafe yesterday that had one of those soaps in the ladies. (The Street Bakeshop in Old Basing.) I recommend it for the amazing cakes, in addition to the soap experience! x

Haha! cost effective - I will tell Gav that actually I'm SAVING money!!
I was going to comment on the drips!
This needs careful planning on the drip front doesn't it!
Fabulous read as always! Thank you I feel like I am having the experience too!
I have a feeling that James Martin has one of those soaps by his sink in his TV kitchen! I always think how brilliant they are!! Happy travels x
Gosh so it's bang on trend!! Who knew???
I came here to say the same! I always look at the one in James Martins kitchen and wish I had one 🤣
I am going to totally justify it by saying he's got one so I had to have one too! lol
