Trust me hun, there are better smelling, better looking and better at other things
fellas out there who will treat you like a queen and expect nothing back!
I cant believe he felt "different" about you, after you tidied his house
(essentially!)!!!!:eek: If my DH did that, the only thing different would be I'd love him a hell of a lot more for saving me the effort :rotfl:
Thanks. I would never have thrown someones things out if they had still wanted them, but they were in his bathroom cupboard for 5 years. Really upset me, first boyfriend and all. A past is fine, living in the past is something else.
Still waiting for that person, that doesn't want just something they don't want to pay for! :eek:
Wish I had had someone that appreciated it, sounds like there are some out there that would have!0 -
Hi all,
I got my Grandad whiskies of the world from Sainsbury's. I got my Granny Champney's hand lotion and then got a free gift of a brunette hair gift pack for MIL for her birthday. They have some good gifts on there.Total (Aug 19):€58,567 Now:€26,947

Sometimes the nicest gifts are the smallest, most personal. The stuff that people say "I saw this and thought you would like it".
Better than a diamond tiara. Wouldn't be able to wear it anywhere anyway!0 -
So, happy stuff!
how is the paper hat challenge going? I must say, i don't think I'm going to win!0 -
The Paper Hat challenge is going well for everyone I think. Everyone is at different stages but it is a very supportive thread to be part of!Total (Aug 19):€58,567 Now:€26,947

Morning everyone.
Thanks for all the ideas re purple present ideas. Will defo have a look in Dotty P's as they seem to have a few purple things. Will PM you later CAFCGirl re the tea towel.
I've just paid £165 to Barclaycard as I had some Paypal money go in today so that is good, payment will come out of bank account tomorrow but have updated sig today - I'm now over the £500 mark, yippee! Can't wait for New Year when I don't have to spend any money and can throw every penny at the cc.
Hope everyone has a good day!!!Sealed Pot Challenge #0160 -
Good stuff TooMuch,
It's great when you meet landmarks for certain things. Gives you a bit of a lift. It is freezing here. Really wanted to stay in my bed!Total (Aug 19):€58,567 Now:€26,947

Well done TMD, thats fantastic!
I'm the same with the new year as well.... i'm chomping at the bit, willing the days to go faster
Hope you find something good for the purpleness!
PinkTwirl - The paper hat challenge has been an absolute life saver and I have met some fantastic people along the way. Someone mentionned previously that the great thing with the challenge is that its motivating competition, noone has been overly competitive, and noone tries to scupper anyone else's efforts, we all want to clear our 15k as quickly as possible but we also want everyone else to clear theirs as quickly as possible.....
So really we're all just a big bunch of fluffy lovelinessxx
