    Toniq your round up was very funny and informative, deffinately should be a weekly thing.

    Has it been decided if there will be a comping challenge for 2009?

  • ohh, not sure what happened there, it looks like I'm trying to sign off as Toniq in my first post!

    Yep chocolate Brownies all round in the Inn - green and blacks chocolate too :) I think a good present is something you like but wouldn't normally buy yourself and the woman i'm buying for is a busy working mum and so wouldn't have time to bake (not that i do usually either!) and i had a couple of quid left in my budget so i thought it would be a nice addition to her prezzie :)

    I have a bit of an eeclectic dress sense, i have a lot of vintage stuff so i've decided on a Topshop leopard print one shouldered playsuit, thick black tights and Terry Dehaviland wedges - all very 70s :)

    Ok reading that back my outfit sounds a bit mad, i've found a link to the playsuit ... http://www.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CategoryDisplay?parent_category_rn=118926&top=Y&langId=-1&storeId=12556&catalogId=19551&categoryId=146486&beginIndex=20&viewAllFlag=false

    (Once again i must learn to make clickys, that link is soooo ugly!)

    Its the short animal print one in the top row. A bit quirky but Very me :) So i'm done for the evening so i can chat on here and enter some comps, hooray!

    That outfit looks fab, hope you have a nice time. Don't worry I have no idea how you do clickys either! I think you need to be a secret MSE member for some time to get that knowledge. Wish I did as some of the clickys do look a bit ugly without knowing.

    I am trying to catch up with comps while my OH is out and Little Dragon is sleeping. I think I have a few days to go so may be up for a while.

    Thanks for the brownies. I'm impressed you made them yourself :D

    That's some bug doing the rounds in here :eek::eek::eek: hope everyone gets better soon coz when we get up tomorrow there'll only be 7 DAYS TO GO!!!!!!!!! OMG!!!!!!! (((((((((((((((((((((hugs))))))))))))))))))))) to all just coz I love hugs (yes t I want you to have some too, go on, you know you want to :)) and I'm off now til lo wakes up *starts counting backwards from 5 :rotfl:* luv ya all, mwahh xxxx
  • Me too, I'm just being really choosey with comps that end in the next few days then trying to get back to being a few days ahead of myself.

    Perhaps well have to ask the others for the secret password to get into the secret meeting for making clickys? lol
