If someone could check the on board price of Channel allure sport 3x50ml for me the next time they are on a LH flight it would be much appreciated.

Thank you Prospero. Unfortunately it looks like they don't do it any more

Why that's my dainty Chanel! I shall miss thee...

Agree, very nice, I thought you can still buy it at the airport. I left my last one in Italy

I think I said that the only moisturiser I need is water and that I have never needed lip stick and never will. However that doesn't mean I don't like to smell like a tarts boudoir. You see, I'm complex.

Talking of a boudoir, I once had a first mate who reckoned he could find the red light district in any city whether he had been there before or not. He would find a local who spoke English and ask for directions to the cathedral/castle/city museum. They would start reeling off directions, probably pointing vaguely, say, north. He would interrupt with great concern and ask them "Are you sure - I thought the red light district was over there"? "Oh no" they'd reply. "The red light district is over there".

Well, that's a shame, Mrs P has bought this from the inflight duty free in the past. As I understand because it was significantly cheaper than elsewhere.

If the shop is at LHR the answer is 'relatively expensive'!

If it's cheap you're after then may I recommend Kouros. I got some last year and have been very impressed with the results.

I checked the brochure on today's MIA flight and alas, there was no sign of your dainty Chanel number.

No Hiddy, I most certainly was not after cheap - what kind of a boy do you think I am! I was looking for discounted expensive (very much the idea behind BAFT wouldn't you say).
