Dont think Rooney is anywhere as near as good as the hype he gets and never was, all the pundits keep saying how brilliant he is and when his time comes he's gonna be immense but it never happens, typical of how the media treat the England players and team, we're either the best in the world, sure b...

Are Rooney still in business

Are Rooney still in business? I'm pretty sure the answer to this question is yes, but i'm having real trouble contacting them i brought a rather beaten up but cheap Rooney shaving brush in a car boot sale (or at least i think its a Rooney but risking £1.50 isnt much of a risk) I wanted to see if its...

you can tell how dyhdrated it is by how much the cream has sunk in the pot, try some of the tubes, they still have them at grooming-health.com, they dyhdrate the least and come as close as you can get to the original product
