I'm sure you'd find other ways of avoiding work! I know I would!
Oooh, just been talked about on the radio again! How exciting! This time I said 'Last night my fiance said that even after a year of karate lessons I still wouldn't be able to beat him up! Hmph, I'll show him!' DJ man giggled about it!

:j Congratulations Dinah! :j
You've achieved so much in such a short time, it's amazing to hear how your life has totally changed and how happy you are with NIM. Well done! You've proved to yourself you can do anything now.
Virtual champagne for everyone x
I had a super cool day off today and went for a free haircut at the Tony and Guy academy. My hair is straight but has a slight kink, and the lady insisted on drying it curly. So the fringe is straight and the sides are curly - I'm like a King Charles Spaniel with curly ears!
Am afraid I didn't get away from Oxford Street unscathed. I got a new pair of black shoes with those triangle heels and a t shaped front. BUT very MSE they were in the sale reduced from £45 to a bargainous £25. I was nearly far more naughty in Oasis. Still we've all had a big splurge right at the front of your new diary, Dinah!

Well done on the £20 win AF, I got 10p today!
I think you did well considering your were on Oxford street Lara, and you did get a free T&G haircut which is very MSE (and I'm slightly jealous!) I'm sure you're hair doesn't look like a Charles Spaniel! They wouldn't let you walk out the salon looking silly either!
I've just joined boots diet on the 1 day trial, says I'll be at my goal weight by 4th July, not too shabby! Only had 642 calories today though, I best have some chocolate.. don't want my energy levels getting low..0 -
I'm sure you look lovely Lara, I like KC spaniels! Off to get my nails done now, I'm one of *those* girls who have to have acryllic nails (but they look very natural! People don't believe they're not mine!), I had to take them off at the weekend (because I'm bad and left them too long so they started falling off!) and I can't wait to have lovely hands again! It's my one major vice but OH even said he'll make room in the budget for it because I pick my nails to nothing when they're left uncovered... bad Birdie! Anyway, that was a very long way of saying I'm off now! If I don't talk later, have a good weekend!Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary.
