    Glad I am not the only one that has been buying hehe.

    I am going to go up to Topshop at lunch. Need a new bag as mine turned green off my cat rubbing off it (the coat is black so not sure how it happened). Maybe I can find something in sale and I have a ten pound voucher

    Damn Poddle highlighting my indiscretions!

    Cats are funny Wendz, I sold a large bag on ebay and had it on the floor whilst I was parcelling things up the other night, Mavis promptly got on it and went to sleep, and growled at me when I tried to move her, little madam! Still good excuse for a new bag for you!

    I'm trying to work out what to buy on my guilt free shopping trip on Saturday. NIM has said I'm not allowed to spend on him (knows me too well!) but I was thinking I could be tricksy and get some nice undies, not for him but he'll certainly enjoy them!

    Thinking a pair of shoes, new bag as mine is 2 years old and kinda small and I want a shoulder one, and then some pretty frocks!

    You never know Dinah, you might get a shock by walking into your bedroom to see NIM wearing them.
    I wish I could say that's never happened with OH.. thankfully it was over his clothes..

    You should treat yourself! Head to topshop and get some new dresses, everywhere has sales on so you can get something fab and guilt free because it'll be a bargain :D

    I'm using my paypal money for ebay spends too Tete, although I noticed DP let you pay by paypal and they have some nice bits on sale atm.. Well done on getting the dress!

    That's pretty weird about the bag Wendz! Hope you find something!

    I'm sure my OH doesn't even look at my undies, just rips them off :rolleyes: - was your OH having a superman/woman moment Cinny?!

    Dinah I think that as well as nice clothes/shoes/bags you should get yourself something pampery like a posh bubble bath or perfume :D

    Definitely not bubble bath, everyone else uses it! My only perfume is a £4 from Avon one, to be fair I get about £10 of little pampery bits from the Avon lady at work every month, just put my order in for July today actually. (£12 on me, £1 on getting NIM some tea-tree and mint shampoo as he has an odd 'yum' reaction to tea-tree!).

    Have text Birdie to check everything is okay, we're not all really dense and missed her saying she was going on holiday or something?!

    NIM is old fashioned in many ways, in that he appreciates the packaging his soon-to-be-naked woman comes in a disproportionate ammount!

    Oh no, I think he's just a tad simple.

    I second the bubble bathy thing! Something stupidly priced and fancy sounding too, like Di Palomos Wild fig and Grape! Or failing that, something nice from the Body Shop sale.

    ETA: I was starting to worry about Birdie too! Maybe she's busy kicking council tennant !!!!?

    Alright, that wasn't even a swear!
