"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a Spanish phrase book must be in want of a holiday”

Well, not necessarily! Some people don’t want a holiday, they want a life changing experience. Just over thirty years ago as the miners went on strike and The Smiths released their first album, Andy left a trouble torn Thatcherite Britain and boarded a flight for Malaga. Clutching a Spanish phrase book he dreamed of adventure.

Thirty years on and Andy returns to the Spain of his youth, accompanied by his wife, Tania, and his two sons, Will and Tom. He still carries a phrase book but he doesn't want a life changing experience, he wants a holiday. Travel in time and space; visit Spain in two different time periods and in very different circumstances.

Travel to Malaga, Granada, Seville, Córdoba and various other Andalusian towns and cities and then head north to the Basque Country Walk in the shadow of Lorca, Durruti and La Pasionaria, as the author tries to discover the answers to some eternal questions - Is there such a thing as a life changing experience? Does the past shape the future or does the future shape the past?

Works well
Size: 2.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I weigh 256 lbs. I have a lot of crevices that overlap each other. I also run 2-3 miles 3 times a week and about 5-6 miles on Saturdays. My Saturday miles will continue to increase. All that to say my original deodorant didn't do much to stave off my body odor. It also wasn't an all over deodorant. I'm always so stinky after my runs. I got this deodorant on a Friday so I used it for my Saturday long run. It was also very hot out that day. The high was 103° and it was almost 90° by 9:30 am. I ran and I sweat profusely. I got home after my 4.5 mile run and I obviously had a little body odor but it wasn't so bad. My daughter said at worst I just smell like I've been outside for a long time but it wasn't horrible like usual. That same day I showered and reapplied the deodorant, and went on a 2 mile walk in 100°. Today was a 2.5 mile run and I don't smell myself like usual. I feel comfortable not showering since I have a workout at lunch time as well. It also doesn't break me out like most deodorants do because there's no aluminum which is a big deal for me because when I get rashes from wearing aluminum deodorant I can't wear deodorant until it's gone and no one wants that. Anyhoo it's an easy application. Just squirt a little on two fingers and apply to your pits and crevices. It's got the texture and consistency of lotion. It keeps me smelling decent after sweating. I know someone said theirs had a sour milk smell and I think that probably has more to do with their body odor composition and less about the deodorant.

Deo
Size: 2.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Works well! Helps with odor. Has the classic strange body deo scent sort of like Lume, so if you don't like that this product probably won't be for you. The actual scent of rose and raspberry is nice!

Good product
Size: 2.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I like this. Only need a small amount. I first tried Lume, but that smells like vomit. This smells so much better and lasts well. I will buy again. I use under b00bies and between legs for chafing. It helps.

Perfume is super strong
Size: 2.5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
It is so heavily perfumed it makes me sick, but the scent is nice. I can’t handle putting it on so I can’t really tell you if it’s affective for a barrier.
