    Once I get going I am OK on Dooyoo but sometimes I just can't get the energy up.
  • The Christmas lights in London are on already, i cannot believe that, a bit early isn't it? My OH and I were in Starbucks Sunday morning for a quiet coffee and to read the papers, and they started playing Christmas music, i really felt like going up there telling them to turn it off. I a MASSIVE lover of Christmas, but November for me is even to soon. Anyways, i bet Oxford St looks lovely, i must drag OH up town before Xmas as i do love looking at the pretty lights.

    I'm glad your Uggs arrived okay, i love Shudoo, they have some gorgeous shoes and i'm forever getting e-mails with special offers, then again, that's probably not a good thing as it makes me want to buy. Uggs are soooo comfy aren't they?!


    I hope you manage to sort out the missing money, sounds like a mistake the bank have made.

    I know I think it is a bit early. I am the same love christmas but prefer it all to be in December.

    The Uggs are really comfy, haven't had a chance to wear them out yet. I got them while at work and I tried them on at my desk haha.

    The missing money has all turned up now, was really scary that but glad it has all come back to me. That would have been bad if I really needed that money.

    Have had a good start to the day, got my 20 I won on BB and also won another 15!

    I don't get where I'm going wrong, I've been putting loads of effort into some of my Dooyoos of late, still no crowns, so I've stopped trying again!

    Glad you got the money sorted.

    It does seem a bit random the way they do crowns as some people who really try don't get them!
