    No point getting a moveable dress, I'd happily spend the day unable to sit down and go for something completely over the top. You could smuggle people about in the todays DOTD!

    *edit for updates!*

    We should talk money a bit more shouldn't we?!
    The MS jobs sound good for NIM Dinah, when is he back?

    Okay, moooneeey talk. Oh! I know! My free cineworld ticket came in the post today. Will sneakily use it when me and OH go to the cinema on friday. I can use coupons on his birthday treat, right?

    Definitely! I'll use coupons for OH's birthday, in fact I think his birthday dinner last year was a 2 for 1 voucher!

    Money talk... I got my cheque from the sharesave scheme I cancelled- £467! :j Will put it on my CC and to pay for my new specs! I know it was my money to start off with but I haven't noticed it going out so it feels like a nice gift!

    I'll use it and if he comments I'll say it's for my ticket. I 'won' mine on coke zone in january, only just shown up!

    Great news on the cheque Birdie!

    Not long till he's back then, will you still be doing date night this week?

    Can't believe OH is 21 tomorrow, all the fun of winding him up about his gift will be gone : (

    But at least you'll be able to enjoy him enjoying it! And you'll be able to wind him up about being old now!
