Living La Vida’lerta– Lynx Africa and Marmite Actually Exists!

There are neighbours and there are neighbours and in our Lovely Kata we’ve always known that we had the very best …….. but after yesterday, oh my goodness, what can we say, after she made one of our dreams come true!

There was a knock on the door which Darrell answered, there was a gasp, followed by another gasp and then another, followed by a little laughter and then a chorus of overwhelmed thank yous from Darrell ………

…… before the door clicked and Darrell came rushing into the lounge with the biggest smile ever, clutching a black aerosol can tightly to his chest.  Was it ………???????

Oh my goodness, our Lovely Kata had only gone and found us some actual, real life Lynx Africa and Marmite body spray. The room fell silent momentarily and I admit I had to eat my words for ever doubting its existence.

How could we ever thank Kata, after so many weeks of trying and failing to find it ourselves, dreaming of the day that we would finally get a whiff of “the Lynx Africa iconic scent, a mix of warm African and spices and aromas smashed with the intense scent of savoury, mouth –watering Marmite. The outcome? An unexpected yet irresistible fragrance

That, said Darrell, was going to be quite easy, because when he was at the door with Kata she made him promise that we would never spray it if ever she was around or if we were actually wearing it when we saw her, we were to step back, wave in the general direction of our arm pits and pinch our noses thus denoting that we were liberally saturated.

Which, in turn, should, perhaps, give you a slight indication as to how it actually smells …… let’s just say it’s erm ………..

…….. quite penetrating erm, pungent and without of erm ……subtly,  as Nigel so succinctly put it “You can’t really miss it, can you?” …….

Well done, Kata! Great find, and a wonderful gesture! It is the thought that counts, not the actual fragrance.
