    I still don't know what an inverted bob is - is it where it's a bit shorter at the back?

    My first answer didn't post!

    Yep, it's long at the front then short in the back. Lady Beckham had one last summer and it became the 'it' style. I just haven't moved on yet!

    The Pob! I really liked it, I liked her 'poxie' style too, thought she really suited it. Hmm, I huess I'll just have to see what springs from my gob when I go in tomorrow!

    I just got a kitkat from the machine but the refrigeration wasn't working on it so my kitkat is just a packet full of mush :( I really want to open it but it'll just go everywhere :(

    Open it very very carefully, the cram it all in your mouth before it has a chance to make a mess!

    I'm sure it'll look great! And if not, it's only hair it'll grow back. Fringe hair seems to grow really quickly too.

    ETA: Good news on the Tigi hair stuff I wanted - First time round it was going to come to £35 for the shampoo and conditioner. Then found a package for £25, then £20 and finally just ordered it at £17 for both. Just thinking that this time a year ago I would of just bought them, along with extras on the first price. :T

    I've finally managed to shake off the lady I'm training, I can't think of enough excuses to run away and get on my own PC throughout the day, I don't think 'I need to catch up with the girls on MSE' will fly!I definitely think you should go with the Cinny way of eating your kitkat Tete, remember to suck the packet so nothing gets wasted!The builder we bought from is a development company but not big like Barratt or Persimmon. When I spoke to him yesterday he really couldn't give a toss about us and I doubt that he'll make any kind of deal to get us out. I'll have a look on the housing board tonight or tomorrow, going to see Mummy tonight so I don't know if I'll get chance to get on MSE, but she'll give me lovely big cuddles and make it feel better!
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

    Good deal Cinny! It's so great when you find things for so much less than you would have paid pre-MSE!

    I have the opposite problem, getting people away from my computer so I can catch up, I don't think telling them I need to catch up with the MSE girls would fly here either!

    I just hope after all the hassle of getting them 'cheap' they're worth it! But for what they are, being a salon brand, I guess that's like finding marked down Loreal at the back of boots.

    Mummy cuddles make everything better, they're better healers than chocolate or tea with biscuits. It isn't really surprising the builder guy doesn't want to help, he'll just see it as building something, selling it on and most likely forgetting all about it - i know it sounds a bit harsh but working with a lot of builders it's what are company gets! The housing people seem like a friendly bunch so I'm sure they'll have lots of ideas and people to call for you.

    ETA: Forgot about licking the chocolate packet - in this economy you need to make everything last. I really fancy a cadburys bar now, after you've left it on the kitchen side in the sun and it's melted a little.

    I did it, and I squeezed the packet to make all the chocolate come out, possibly one of the best kitkats I've ever had!!

    OK girlies, I'm off now for 5 whole days, hoorrah! I'm sure I'll pop back in over the weekend. Hope you manage to sort something Birdie, or get on you way to being able to. If all else fails just stuff your face with creme eggs!!

    Happy easter! :EasterBun

    Hey everyone!

    Just been catching up on the thread, took so long to catch up again!!

    Birdie - so sorry to hear about the problems you are now having with your flat, you must be really upset about it, i know i would. But hopefully you will be able to sort it out. You never know they might put some nice people in the flats, not all people who live in council houses are chavs! Only about 80% of them, JOKE!!!

    Cinny - my mum is the same with my lack of spending, she should be happy that you are saving and not buying on credit!
