  • Morning all.

    I feel superorganised today... I've been to the Post Office already, though when I got back another item had sold so it was a bit of a wasted journey as I'll have to go again tomorrow. I've washed my hair, finished the ironing, so am feeling a bit lost! I'm super nervous about tonight (first college lecture!!!!!!!!) ARGH. Sorry I keep mentioning it, I'm just bricking it :eek:

    Also received the letter from college to say they've set up the standing order for my course... but we agreed that it would be paid over 6-months but instead they've done it over 3-months so I have to pay double what we agreed! Grrrrrrr :mad: Will have to sort that out.

    Off to make a sandwich and find something to distract myself with! :o

    Well done on getting so much done.

    You will have a great time tonight. I would speak to the college about it tonight, if you agreed 6 months then thats what it should be. xx

    Afternoon everyone, hope everyone has had a nice day so far :)

    I went shopping with my dad this morning and found birds eye breaded/battered fish for 25p in Asda! I couldn't believe it, it's ridiculously cheap for two pieces... I don't even eat fish lol. I'm not sure if it's just the Adsa in Crawley but it's definately worth looking for in other stores. I made my first sale on dawanda whilst I was out :D, so that's an extra £10 I wasn't expecting. I have £43 in my paypal account now and am debating whether I should spend £100 on vintage supplies as christmas is coming up soon(ish). Any thoughts? I have some stuff but people really seem to go mad for the vintage stuff so I think I'd almost definately make my money back.
    Finally bought a home
