And and and and...

Doesn't Davina McCall advertise hair dye by Garnier?

Yet she's the NCT face of positive childbirth experiences person, isn't she?

HOW is that justified by the NCT?

maybe they don;t know about nestle;s thing with the baby milk?? possibly?

AitchTwoOh · 13/05/2007 17:41

i think julienetmums (now islandofsodor, possibly as a protest, who knows?) was genuinely pretty upset about this last week. she felt quite hurt and betrayed, by the sounds of things. so be nice if you see her around, everyone.

AitchTwoOh · 13/05/2007 17:42

good point, fmf, i'm off to de-register too. (i quite forgot i'd ever registered, though.)

Lulu, I think they know. I think that Nestle have waved money at them. Milupa tried hard with MN didn't they?

lulumama · 13/05/2007 17:44

i think you are right, was trying to think of a reason that they would do this, apart from money

Kathyis6incheshigh · 13/05/2007 17:44

What's wrong with Garnier, HM? Are they owned by Nestle?

lissielou · 13/05/2007 17:45
