  • you can tell you were blonde before, thats why the colour isnt as brown as you wanted, its just picked out the red tones in the dye. Just watch the next colour you put on it as it will go darker next time as the red has taken out the blonde (does that make sense? it did in my head but thats means nothing!) Looks ok though............i never went that dark so you are much braver than me!!!!

    Xmas Saver!
    ur hair looks fab x
    xx rip dad... we had our ups and downs but we’re always be family xx
  • Hi all.

    Lovely hair Pipsmum, once you start the colouring its hard to stop! Cannot remember what my own colour is now, probably very grey!! Jam looks yummy, how very domesticated you are. I might have a go as mine go through a couple of jars a week.

    Got an Ipoints £10 Sainsbury voucher today, saving them all up to get a free weeks shopping. Finally bought a years season ticket with loan from work taken straight from salary which will be much cheaper than buying a train ticket every day. I am getting into these no spend days now! About time!!!!!!:j
  • It looks lovely mrs pip weasley :)

    Wow! You can spot stripeyness a mile off cant you Hampster :rotfl:

    Spends
    - yep I quite like being a domesticated Stepford wife. If you had asked me prior to going on Maternity leave I would have laughed at the very thought of me being domesticated.

    Thanks everyone for the nice comments about my hair x x

    So here is the product of my stocking up for the last few weeks!
    Top shelf is kitchen rolls, washing up liquid, sponges and other cleaning things.
    Next is soups, sauces, tuna,
    Then there is other tinned stuff like sweetcorn, peas, rice, beans and tomatoes.
    Next theres Mayo, tomatoe sauce, pasta sauce, curry sauce, sweetner and biscuits.
    Lastly is cat food and crisps

    Its a good job I have it all though as OH work has advised him that his pay will be wrong this month and he will £400 down :mad: this will be on top of the fact that I am dropping to SMP this month too. Mum says she can lend us it but I feel a bit poopy about it.

  • My goodness, you are well sorted if there is a sudden freaky blizzard that traps you in your house!!!!!:rotfl:Its a great idea though, *looks around for somewhere to store stuff*

    I seem to be stocking up from approved foods at the moment, they have got some good stuff.

    Ha ha ha yep maybe I own more stripeyness than I first thought?
    I went to buy Pip some little summer suits and found a stripey one that just had to be purchased!!!

    I am happy :j:j as the manky bed from the flat has sold for £53 on Ebay and the little sofabed thing has gone for £15 :j:j. Great news as its extra cash and even better we wont have to carry them down 4 flights of stairs :rotfl::rotfl:

    Going to list the 2 units next and maybe the sofa?

    Flat had 2 viewings today so fingers crossed they went well.

    Payday today and it was £477 as I had feared so I have a bit of a shortfall to make up this month. A bit bigger shortfall now as I went into the £1 shop and bought a few bits. Got a little paddling pool and 3 packs of coloured balls so now for £4 Pip has his own ball pit to play in.
    The carseat we had from Pips godfather isnt a rear facing one so we will need to buy one after all. Needs to be done so no point moaning about it, will have to come out of savings.

    OHs work say there is nothing they can do about his missing wages untl next month so it will be very tight, will have to take mum up on offer of a loan I think.

    Fitted the water butt so we now can water the garden with lovely free water :T
