    I am off to find a belt in a minute at lunch. I am doing this modelling thing tomorrow which I am absolutely petrofied about. Basically it is a Britains Next Top Model party and a boy and girl from quite a few media agencies in LOndon have to do a catwalk show. And guess who got volunteered! We have to pick our first outfit and we have gone for a bit of a jokey one with 'charity shop chic', which is basically awful outfits. Everyone else will probably be taking it dead seriously where as we are seeing it as a laugh, so we will probably look a bit odd! The second outfit though is goign to be picked by stylists and will be a glamorous one and we get our hair and make up etc done so that will be exciting. So nerveracking doing it in front of so many peope though.

    That sounds hilarious Wendz, have fun!

    Eeeee, just got an email to say Cath Kidston are having a summer sale tomorrow! Budget is going out of the window if they have their cardigans reduced. Will try and behave!

    Birdie - That's so cute! I agree with Zig though, something you'll be able to laugh about for years.

    As for your 'feels like longer' comment Dinah, OH said that on our 1 year. Cheeky git! It is tomorrow night you have the cinema tickets, or did I completely make that up?

    Ooh, that sounds fun Wendz! You can't pretend that you don't have a glamorous life in London!
    I hope OH doesn't come on here and find out how cute I'm making him out to be, he's supposed to be 'Well 'ard'!
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

    How cool Wendz! Bet you have a right laugh, and what a confidence boost that you were picked to do it! Always nice to have your hair and make-up done by someone else too! :p

    Cinny, I have never looked at Cath Kidson stuff...and now I know that I should never have looked! I really like their clothes! But the prices.. :eek: I'll have to keep away from that sale...

    Being seriously good next week though, free cinema tickets AND a MS dinner right next door to one another on the same evening. Deserving of a spinny Martin?

    Hi Dinah,

    Yes I'm missing mines, can't get into any subscribed threads and I have about 20! Can't edit anything either, weird!

    Cinny, I've just realised where I've seen Cath Kidston before... they have a shop in my town! That's one to add to my list of expensive shops I can't go in.

    I'd be excited too, Dinah! How do you get free cinema tickets? And yep, I'd say that's deserving of a spinny martin!

    My user thing is missing too :confused:
