    Oh my god, that is beautiful!

    I'm starting to wonder where people get the money for these things?

    Anyway, they are on my list for when I have reached my target. I do still have some lovely Pier glasses wrapped up but I have to replace my addiction somehow;) They are more the type where I would just have one and look after it though. Just wish I had a birthday coming up.icon8.gif Could get them bought for me. ;) Will wait until I have reached my target and use my quidco money. Grr!

    I'm calculating and I just don't think I will hit £15.5K by xmas. I can pay about £990 a month but there will be interest added on. Boo.

    It's times like this I wonder if I will ever be free.

    You will. If you carry on at that rate you will be free in 2 and a bit years and you will still have your own house. :jOnwards and upwards:D

    Beautiful wine glasses ladies :o I have a cupboard full of wine glasses but always ogle stuff like this when I am out. I had a bit of a spend on Monday at an outlet centre - jeans, vest top and jumper came in at just under £40 which I think is still kinda MSE.. maybe.. help me here..
    Not so MSE is the fact that it wasn't a budgeted-for spend so will need to make up the difference with some ebaytastic action or something... will try to nab some more overtime at work but competition is pretty hot for it at the mo.. you have to be in the right place at the right time. Got offered some for tomorrow night but off to a conference/jolly so had to turn it down:rolleyes:

    Sarah - you can do it and if you get within a whisker of paying off that much in such a short time you can wear a very smug grin on your reward shopping trip face :j:j

    hi.gif

    Sarah!!! The Queen of Fabulousness queen.gif returns, :j and I've missed her.

    Sorry to hear that things are carp, but glad that you are keeping on keeping on. :A Now I have a bad case of wine glass envy. I am liking your approach to misbehaving technology; I have just tried it on my camera, and it worked. :D
    PinkTwirl - Wishing you goodluck.gif with the plan.

    Lula - that garden is sounding lovely. You have made me realise that I haven't seen my peonies for a while, so will need to go an excavate later. emrose.gif The garden has been a scene of some disquiet lately, as the respective bird families have been seeing off a new kitty.gif (which tried to come in the front door after the magpies had dive-bombed it). I have a strange urge to put house numbers and names on the trees; to the right we have thrushes at no.1, pigeons at no.2, blackbirds at no.3, and more thrushes at no.4. Outhouse roof, available for dawn chorus, usually Mr & Mrs blackbird, plus a second Mr blackbird.

    I have finally stopped dithering and listed 12 eBay items on Sunday, and have another 5 waiting in turbolister to go on 10 day listing this Thursday. As at last night, I have 2 items selling and 34 watchers on the others, so here's hoping.

    Thanks to Lois and CK for their signature, spotted this afternoon. roflol.gif

    I have flabby thighs, but fortunately my stomach covers them.

    This reminds me of a friend's comment: "I decided to diet when I rolled over in bed, and my stomach came to rest next to me".

    You wouldn't need a use for anything so lovely. You could just look at it. Maybe occasionally stroke it. Polish it up nice.....

    I really must get on with this witness statement I'm meant to be drafting for Uni work. Shame I don't really get it and I'm distracted by pretty things :cool:
