Barclays fraud prevention

I was recently doing a thing for my nan which is unimportant but it involved her debit card. Anyways I need her card number and account number as well as her sort code etc the usual for paying online. I asked for her account number and told her I needed a bank statement to get this her reply' it's on the card ya daft sod' now obviously I looked at her like she had gotten confused, it happens to us all at some point.
She grumpily fetches it and says 'look right there its the same'.
It was!  I'm no master bank thief but seriously how dangerous and hilariously barclays website is bogged down with fraud prevention tips.
Guys my advice to you is if all your card details like long number expiry date are on their ALONGSIDE your account number AND sort code is to close the account and use another bank because your account is made so easy to empty. I could do it in 5 minutes and I'm not that good with the Internet.  Onion set my blog up that's how easy to rob you it is.
I will be contacting barclays and will post with their reply.
BTW did I mention your at risk and should be extremely careful with your card.
Stay safe with your bank

Natural soap

I previously wrote about a soap that I found called oliva. 
I promised a review and here it is.
Let's first talk about my itchy dogs, they have easily irritated skin and scratch like crazy I've done everything I can to stop the itch and didn't seem able to find anything. I by chance chose to try this soap on my dogs who got real smelly so naturally out came the shower cap and oliva soap and by magic the itchy puppies were no longer scratching away. I only used this on my dogs because it contained no chemicals unlike most over products available.
So back to the soap on humans, or me for that matter.
First off it lathers really well which I missed with the need wash, it also cleans really well without an icky residue on hair. No transition period.  Winner so I think I've finally found my no kak product for hair and body.
Yes, I did say body and my skin is starting to clear up.
I have, sorry had bacne and even that is clearing up nicely no new breakouts even my scars are fading. This summer I purchased three strappy tops and had my back on display, I even managed to tan which has improved the look of my scars yay.  I really believe this is the best soap ever and even better it's £1.19 a bar unlike most easy products.

If you know of any no kak products get in touch I like variety and if you try oliva soap let me know how you feel about it.
I also want to know if any of you know of a diy/no kak toner.
I also also want to know of any quick recipes or products for my no kak life.
That's it for now,

crochet crop top

I know I've been quiet a while but I had a good reason. I have severe depression and anxiety which results in nice panic attacks when these occur I'm left feeling out of it for days so I sit home and crochet.
This time I created a little summer crop top which is a one off piece I made just because I could. I didn't write a pattern as it's adaptable but I will just for you guys it will be on ravelry for 50p and remain at that price but while I'm writing that I need your help.
The picture below is of the summer crochet top that will fit a size 14 with a d cup (uk sizing). what I'm asking is what you guys think I should sell it for, it took me 3 weeks to finish because I couldn't decided how I wanted it to be. I'm not really interested in a huge profit and I want to list it at a fair price. what do you out there think is fair?

Thanks guys, Spyro
