Do women feel like that in DIY shops? I went to Jewsons alone recently and didn't feel weird. I just pretended I knew what I was doing.

I did exactly the same at a gay sauna.

I wore dungarees to look the part - did you? :)

I wore a moustache.

I had a beard.

Where?

YAY!

I think that I'll be heading to Lush on Friday, to treat myself after my first week at uni. A small feat to reward, I know, but hey ho. It's felt like it's been tough.

Glad it's not just me that feels intimidated in such places. I feel immeditately ill-at-ease just going gift shopping in The Body Shop. The female assistants always seem to immediately approach you if you're a bloke. I don't know if they think we're going to spread manly farts around their lovely shop or piss all over the bath bombs or something?

I don't go into body shop. I feel somehow the fact that Anita Rodrick sold her anti animal testing company to L'Oreal was a smack in the face to customers! Doesn't sit well with me knowing that my money would go into the pockets of a company I normally avoid.

It's a shame cause I used to love it.

Places like Lush and the Body Shop are no go areas for me - especially at Christmas time. I feel like a Black South African finally getting to use the 'Whites Only' bathroom.

I know I have every right to be in there, by the intimidation factor from stressed out female shoppers is quite daunting. I know in their fem-brains they're thinking -

'What's he doing in here?'

'He does not belong here.'

'We own this land manchild - now flee before we eat your penis!'

Now I know how women feel when they take their car into the garage and the greasy mechanics are on eye roll and tisk overload.

It never stops Danny buying Lush stuff. He has got to the point he gets free samples.

In Jewsons. Unimpressed

Now I have images of Danny "enjoying" a bath bomb!

(and I like it!)

You should see the film he made for them....
