    This is my back tattoo

    I'm having real issues with PhotoBucket looking like it's saving my resizing changes and colour changes but when I try and paste it here it's not working, so that's your lot for now!

    I like the tattoo - it's very similar to a design I was going to have a few years ago, on my back too. I ended up with stars tho';)

    And very good snowman! We have a rather tall thin one in the back garden, he's watching me:eek: Rain is forecast here tho' later so might get home and he's gone:rolleyes:
    I really need to sort out a new signature!

    Hi everyone!

    Hope you like the pictures I posted, it took me about twenty minutes to get those two to resize and play nice with me to post them! I've given up on the other ones I was going to post :rotfl:

    It still looks like a Winter Wonderland here, which is awesome! I think I'm coming down with a cold, not because I was out building a snowman though - I felt rotten when I woke up yesterday. I turned into a small child when I saw the snow though :snow_laug

    So, my plans for the day are:

    • Make PAD - and it's a good one, over £10!
    • Check online banking
    • Call Virgin Media about my direct debit
    • Take flasks and lunch to work with me
    • Go to bank to pay in money I took out by accident (Needed £30 but no £10 notes in the machine)
    • Keep warm
    • Pray to all the gods that they close my work (Never going to happen) so we can play in the snow some more :D
    Cat has sat on me, typing with one hand.

    Must go!

    Ours is already gone!! T'other half rugby tackled it once I had taken the pictures. "So the kids round here don't destroy it" He's a big kid :D It was about the same height as me as well (5'6ish!)
  • I like the tattoo. Your snowman was very impressive too!! We don't have any snow here, just lots of rain. OH has just called me though to say there is loads of snow where he is, Chesham -about 20 miles away, he is struggling to get to college.
    Have a good day.

    I think that if I walk to the bus-stop in all the snow I will hurt myself, so I haven't been to the bank as planned. Instead I'm reading MSE while sitting at my desk and I've just eaten last nights dinner for lunch. Very yummy it was too :D

    I did text my boss and ask if I could have a snow day but was [strike]ordered[/strike] asked to just go to work :rotfl:

    I can't wait until 5 o'clock!

    Thanks for the lovely comments about my tattoo/snowman! Build your own snowmen and post the pictures! I want to build another one tonight if it's not too cold. I did float the idea of a snowcow but I think this might be quite tricksy...
