Oh dear!

It looks like I got it wrong again. Should have used Duckhams or something but what do I know next to those with a mightier understanding?

Just wondering where I can get these plungent oils.

As a young man I always thought that Castrol Xxl had a lot going for it easily available in industrial qty.

OH though prefers lavender roses etc cut from the bush.

Lavender is an extremely tough plant and easy to grow. By planting different varieties you can have lavendar from spring to autumn. The cuttings last ages in clothes chests and wardrobes.

Lemon verbena is easy to grow too and is more pleasant than pungent oils.

As I am sure you know, I have been addicted to drenching everything in lavender oil since before Fred died and I use it in industrial quantities.

The other day, when I was ordering my soap nuts, with which I am extremely pleased, incidentally, and another great vat of lavender oil, on a whim, I also ordered a little bottle of lemon oil.

Well, I think that will be my new obsession. The lavender has been unbeatable in easing out the stress of sixty years but the lemon is the way forward I think. Where the lavender was, and is, very calming, lemon seems to be helping me towards the next step out of my dark place.

Better get an industrial quantity of that now.
