    Wow-that is beautiful-eat some pies quick and wear it!!!! That skirt is really nice-perhaps put a maximum bid on and then forget it? ignore me though I'm having a spending 24 hours!! I had my nose pierced years ago but took it out for a job,also have a black rose tattoed on my upper arm that i had done in about 1992-back then it was still quite rare for girls to get tattoos! how things have changed-still remeber walking back through town with a fetching bit of kitchen roll soaked in blood sellotaped round my arm!! and that was a reputable tattooist lol!!
    im 37 this year so am def a bit past that whole look now but dont regret my tattoo.
    Ahhh I see your online shop-cool!!

    I might just ask my boyfriend to bid on it for my birthday, I would like it and I don't think he'd mind getting it a bit early.

    Age is only a number :). I've always been a bit scared of getting a tattoo. I don't mind a bit of pain, but I don't like the idea that I might decide I don't want it after x amount of time (I do tend to be quite fickle). That said I saw a picture of one that I really liked, the girl had flowers going all up her side. They were uncoloured and looked really nice, but they didn't look like flowers usually do and now I can't find the picture, it's so annoying! I might get something like that done one day.

    I wasn't concerned about going off the tattoo coz I'm so sqeamish that I would never have had it done without really thinking about it first!!!
    Ooh let me know if u get the skirt!

    I don't mind really. When I got my tongue pierced my old housemate came with me purely because he wanted to see me with a needle through my tongue ?!? He's a crazy one...

    I've just done a pinecone survey so that's another £4 for my dad to go shopping with :). I'm also up to 665 points on global test market, but I did some surveys yesterday and another one this morning so hopefully I'll get another £30 cheque soon. I might try and save the money to get a free computer to go with my free tv :rotfl:.

  • Well done on your matched bet Jen! I have finally mastered it too... can't believe how long it took me to understand it though. Actually I still don't really understand what's going on, but I understand the numbers and stuff, which is all I need really :o

    Once my second bet settles, I will have made £76.30 in just a few days :)

    Dunno what to do today... wish my ebay items would sell, but things have gone veryyy quiet on there.

    I have two tattoo's one on my back and one on the side of my stomach. I had them done when i was 19 and regret the one on my tummy now. As when i become pregnant it will strecth and look awful. My OH also has a few tattoo's one he hates so much now that he has seen a few people about having it removed. So deffo have a good think first like you said.

    Hi CL and Maria :-)

    Had a email from dooyoo-i wont get my voucher until I update my locked reviews (which is a bit unfair as they dont even come into that voucher redemption) oh well I have done it anyway so will see how it goes.
    The manager of the Wedding shop that sells most of my jewellery is retiring and she is selling the business,hopefully I wll still be able to go on selling to the new owner but it means Ive got to go through all the initial meeting new people etc which is the bit I hate-oh well!!
