    Morning all, gotta go to the asda as my cheque for selling all my dvds has cleared and I need to pick up a few things. Don't have anything to do today so I think I'm just gonna chill out and play on the xbox lots.

    Ooh I might try that - have just changed from pill to implant so hormones are unknown territory at the moment, felt fine for first couple of weeks but the last few days I've been increasingly bad tempered!

    Does it work for PCs too? :confused:

    Im back...been blown all over the place...god its windy. Have just had another lovely conversation with the delightful people at HSBC....I lost it big stylie this time and I am normally so calm on the phone. They sent me a letter yesterday saying I needed to send the SOA...which I did nearly 2 weeks ago, which he couldn't find on his system (they signed for it on 16th :) )...then the idiot wouldn't put me through to supervisor...oh and miraculously the SOA appears! Told him in no uncertain terms if they didn't stop sending me irrelvant letters and running up my phone bill I would be ammending my F&F and they could take a running jump for the money....and deep breaths. How bloody difficult to make a decision I tell you no wonder people loose it sometimes.

    Right Maz you is gorgeous and the picture you have painted will come true one day :)

    Pania :) glad you are happy hun

    Oh I was playing a silly DFW-esque game this morning, was flicking through a magazine while I was having my breakfast and they had a bit about designer vs high street versions of the same outfits - designer ones came to a few thousand, high street still added up to a couple of hundred for most of them.. so I added up what I've got on today...

    Sisley wool jacket - from charity shop about 5 years ago - £3
    Scarf - charity shop - £1
    Florence & Fred top - looks new, from charity shop the other week - £1
    Grey suit trousers - Primark - about £10
    Ralph Lauren shoes - from TK Maxx a few years ago - £15
    Underwear and socks, all Primark, come to £5.50!
    Jewellery - model's own :rotfl:(all presents)

    ..coming to a grand total of... £35.50 - blimey, I really am a cheapskate! :D

    I'll have a go at painting a picture,

    In a few months time, I'll be sat in my new flat that I am renting with one of my current housemates. I'm in the livingroom, eating dinner and watching a bit of tv, he's just come in and gets his dinner and sits with me and we chat about our days. I'm working in the tax office and apart from being a bit tired, it's good. He's got an interview for a better job, not in Primark and looking forward to his girlfriend coming down for the weekend.

    We've both just been paid so we decide to go down to the pub for a few games of pool and on the way back, we go to the shop and spot a joint of ham that's a decent price. So we decide to get it and have it for tea the next day.

    That's my picture that I want to paint.
