Yes, it's not optimal, but it's all in range

No, no! I just saw your ferritin is low. This also is vital. Mine was in the gutter. What is your *number*?
Sometimes a pocket is just not enough.I don't understand having loads of handbags. I use pockets these days
But I am
Last year it was 7, then 11. Now it's 31
I have an old leather crossbody bag for such occasions
Those are very similar to my numbers. And not good. Hair loss and other symptoms are a risk until your ferritin is much higher. If you’re in the US with insurance (assumption) can you get an infusion?
That’s very restrained !!! Well done.I fancied three of the lipsticks @Badabing101 and have bought noneWhich ones did you go for?
I haven’t been restrained with my purchases though, part of why I’m not buying any LE is because I used Cult Beauty’s 20% off code to buy the obscenely expensive Frederic Malle perfume. It’s the cheapest I’ve ever seen it, but it’s also just over a week’s rent
I went for Dance Card & Atomic Cherry lipsticks Muse Lipgloss.

Ah, I was going to buy those and Rose Official! Let me know how you get on with them, please
My GP has told me my iron is improved, so not a concern
But I know you can have hair loss and other symptoms with ferritin in the 75-100 range. I am going to give these heme iron pills a go for a couple of months, then retest when I see a naturopath about my hormones. Medical doctors aren't much help in this area; my gyn is happy to write prescriptions at least, but she is reluctant to run blood tests, or look at my symptoms more broadlyWe'll all be six feet under before Sali has symptoms
Rose Officiel was my 3rd choice, but I’ve got so many pinky / rosy lipsticks I was sensible 
Will report back @The Dowager

One thing is certain, it will be the most unique menopause in the history of all menopauses 
OK, I’m wondering if I actually am a beef-faced low life... I spilt a glass of Coop prosecco into my pillow, thought ‘oh well duck it’ but now I have kind of absorbed it like blotting paper and am chilly. Am I proving Sali’s point about this place?
Her HRT regimen: Extra special ‘baby’ doses of oestrogen because she doesn’t really need it.One thing is certain, it will be the most unique menopause in the history of all menopauses
I don't think so. 1) I don't think it looks like it - would have more volume, especially on top 2) I don't think the colourist would have wanted to do such an extensive bleach job working around extensions* 3) I think she would have said if extensions were part of the picture - as @Disillusioned says, she's been open about having extensions in the past and she always seems to credit those who tend to her hair/nails/eyebrows.
*Would she have had extensions put in after the colour? I can't imagine that after 7 or whatever hours on the colour she'd have elected to spend another few hours having extensions.
I thought she might have had them put in by Hersheshshons when she got the freebie wee fringe
In other news, Beefeater blood orange gin and tonic in a can is very nice.
Was so tempted to get a LE lipstick but sat on my hands. I'm trying to use up stuff before buying anymore.
@Aude you truly are the Hastings of this establishment
In her case that won't be difficult, there are plenty.
It is so murky. Especially with CB.Two cult beauty links in the column. How cosy. The Guardian gets their affiliate cut, CB gets the sales, Sali still gets to pretend she's a journalist
I still haven't used the one I bought last time around, so lesson learnt there
