    I am so proud of all you runners today, really really well done. I bet it was not much fun in that heat.

    I've just bought hairspray dvd off ebay for £3 yay.

    And, DH gave me £30 and I bought some new shoes for work, this is them, http://www.faith.co.uk/productdetails.aspx?pid=281700&language=en-GB&cid= what do you all think?


    I love them although if I stood teaching in those all day I would snap my ankles:eek:

    Very nice though I like the pink ones too:D
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    Phew, glad you made it Sally! And when I saw you mid-race, you looked fab, not tomato-ey at all!

    Sammy, please apologise to your daughter for me, I was running through a haze of nerves and painkillers when I saw her, and I looked at her for aaaages when she shouted my name, thinking 'I know I know you but.....'.

    Feel really guilty because it was lovely of her to cheer me on!

    Dunno worry....she is mucho used to me not knowing anyone from Adam....

    Sammy, I think you and I might be similar build as well, as I remember the conversations about the dresses we had earlier.

    I emptied my drawers out today as bin man comes tomorrow. I have a beautiful bustier thing from next that sill has the tags on it so going to take it in to work tomorrow to see if one of the girls at work's daughter would want it, unless anyone on here wants a top from Next size 10, brand new

    Somewhere to practice your new career - should be just about the right time for you... ;)

    Coincidently I just filled in the on-line screening questionaire for emmigrating to NZ. I have a score of 255. Which looks suspiciously like the maximum value a byte counter can hold. :rolleyes: ;):p Minimum I'd need to "express an interest" is 100...

    :think:

    Are you thinking of emigrating Zed, I cant think why you would want to move from the Sunny North East:confused::rotfl:
