    Hi guys, do any of you remember martins tv programme and one time they were saying about a website where it would come up with a list of hotels and prices ect but it wouldnt tell you the name of the hotel, just a description (which you could search online and figure out what company it is ect ect) and for this reason it made the renting of the hotel very very cheap , or know where i can post this to anyone that may know?! thanks

    Evening all,

    Oh god, I gave myself a bit of an errr 'home haircut' (I usually cut my own hair_ but have totally messed it up! The whole lot is cut nice and straight at the ends, except for one chunk that I've cut about 4-inches shorter than the rest (how?! I don't know) and it looks ridiculous. I wouldn't mind but it's not a piece that I can hide. I think I'm going to HAVE to make an appointment with the hairdresser now, first time in 10 years! :o:o:o

    What have you all been up to today?

    That doesn't sound good cl! I'm considering cutting about 6 inches off of my hair as it's pretty long, but if I decide to I can get my little sister to do it as she's training to be a hairdresser and is surprisingly good.

    I'm so tired, I was up talking to my friend til gone 4 this morning then I got woken up at 8 by my dad (yet again). I did manage to have a cheap night out though, I only had to buy myself one drink so it cost me a whole £2.90 lol.

    Oh dear CL, good luck with the hair dressers, guess you don't like them very much. I don't tend to go either very often but I don't think I would cut my own.

    I've been naughty today and been out for lunch and then shopping. Bought dd2 some summer bits and me a new bag.
