    I don't think there's much chance of that!

    Right I'm off to stand in a post office queue :( Luckily I have my book!

    I'm going to go read my housebuilding book on the grass outside. I'm a bit lost with reading it at the moment, as it feels like the future is very up in the air and I don't know if I'm reading it for no reason. Roll on next weekend - then we'll have a plan!

    Apparently I need to keep all of Saturday free for NIMs plan. Curiouser and curiouser.

    I'm still wearing a cardi. Everyone keeps saying how hot it is but I'm really not feeling it that much. Think I'm broken.

    Have managed to get too baffled by the rest of the week, so NIM is going to sort out what we are doing where for the rest of the week for a change.

    Sounds nice Wendz, I avoided H&M's sale signs just now, and Topshop and all the rest, I'm an angel!

    Post Office didn't take too long in the end and I had chance to sit outside with my book and eat my naughty spendy Boots meal deal of sushi and pineapple - nomnom. Feel all relaxed and zen now.

    What's happening next weekend to decide the future? And NIM's plans are definitely intriguing!

    Next weekend we're sitting down to decide two vital points
    1) Are we building a house
    2) What is NIM doing for a career

    Eek, no pressure then?!

    Wendz, I'm sure the dress was essential, I've heard it's very hot in That London :(

    Sounds serious!

    Yeah it is like a sawna and the tubes are so horrible. OH used to walk to work before and now he has to take an hour tube journey to police training in a shirt and tie, poor thing was feeling it yesterday.
