  • Ahh, bless your OH, only another 35 minutes to go Hayley! Then the TV is yours tell him. hehe.

    I'll definitely move the money from my current ISA to a new one with a better deal, i'll wait till it runs out and get the interest, won't be much but still free money, then i'll switch.

    Just made OH hot waffles and banana with dairy ice cream, and some chocolate sauce, i ate a bit of OH's and it was lovely, just wish i hadn't stopped eating bad foods. OH bought me an early easter egg yesterday, were on offer in Sainsburys, i said i didn't want it and OH ate it all last night, what a pig!!!

  • At last it's Friday evening and I'm chilling with a glass of rose, bliss! OH went out and bought a new PS3 game this morning, £45 :mad: games are sooo expensive, so he's playing that at the mo, and i'm sorting out dins, then we're going to snuggle with a film and the remainder of the wine :j

    I'm out helping the police tomorrow evening so i'll be starting my shirt at 9pm and finishing at 4am :eek: it's gonna be touch. May try and get a few hours during the day tomorrow. How these clubbers do it i don't know??! I'm 25 and past it i think :rotfl:

    PAYDAY today :j felt like a very long month this month, only because of all the birthdays, i spent £800 on birthdays in February.

    It's my birthday next Friday, and my sisters on the 7th, so next weekend should be a good weekend. I've asked for money and just gift vouchers as there isn't much i need, my sister and mum want to take me shopping next Saturday so i can pick my own pressies because apparently I'm so hard to buy for, me, fussy, NEVER!!!! I just don't like people buying me stuff i don't need which equals clutter in the apartment.

    I think i will sort out the finances now, only a little bit of overtime last month so not much extra this month.

    I spent £15 in Tesco's this evening, i went in there to buy 3 bottles of diet coke for £3, just for the magazine offer, but ended up buying 2 bottles of Rose and a few treats, whoops!

  • You deserve a medal for volunteering with the police until 4am! :eek: I am soo old these days and can't cope with late nights anymore at all. Really don't know how I used to do it. It will look great on your cv though for your police application and at least you can sleep it off on sunday :)

    I know what you mean about not wanting stuff cluttering up your apartment. I like to have stuff I want for birthdays and christmas to prevent people buying me stuff I don't need. It only ends up lying unused in a drawer somewhere otherwise.

    Hope you have a lovely evening and enjoy your weekend

    Men and their games ey, i will never understand it but keeps them quiet!

    £800 on birthdays blimey, that is more than I have to spend on myself a month haha.

    Good luck for tonight, it will look great on your application as the others said. My OH has his first weekend off in a while but won't see him as he is going home and my friend is here.

    I know Heidi looks awful doesn't she! I have been watching season 5 part 1 and we only have 2 episodes left to watch. We are properly addicted.
  • That Heidi girl looks awful post surgery! :eek: Can't believe someone would do all of that to themselves when they looked lovely beforehand.

    £800 on birthdays! Your family are very very lucky!

  • Morning lovely ladies!

    OH was up till 3am playing his game, it's called Heavy Rain and he has to solve crimes, and guess what, he's up and already playing!! Lucky i have stuff to do today otherwise i would go mad watching him play.

    Oh my god, Heidi looks awful. I remember season one of the hills, she looked like a teenager, like the first pic, then as it went on she started changing, i just thought to begin with it was her growing up but looking at all her plastic surgery she's had done, she's ruining herself. Pic 2 looks okay in 2008, but her recent pic looks horrible, she'll turn out looking like the late MJ.

    My dvds of The Hills haven't arrived yet, hope they arrive today.

    Hope you all have a lovely weekend!

  • What a night!!!! Started volunteering at 9 pm and finished at 5.50 am :o it was very busy last night, 2 serious incidents but it was a great night, really enjoyed it. Back out next Saturday! Bless OH he stayed up for me, he hates me coming in that late alone, plus it was really bad weather last night, heavy rain, so wanted to make sure i'd driven home okay. We went to bed about 6, then OH's mum called at 10 as she's selling some bits for us this morning at an indoor car boot. After that couldn't get back to sleep :(

    Started the cleaning at 10 and just finished, so having a little catch up on here before heading to Sainsburys for the lunch bits for next week, and also got to do the recycling, it's mad how much recycling we get in a week. I remember when we didn't do recycling just chucked it all in the bin, it amazes me how much recylcing people have but don't recycle.

    My Hills box sets didn't arrive, but Season 3 of Brothers and Sisters arrived so started to watch that yesterday, really love Brothers and Sisters. OH and I would love a big family in a big American house, another of my dreams :rotfl: I really hope we do manage to move to the states in a few years :cool: We may look into maybe visting Canada sometime this year, just want to work out prices before booking anything because this year is the year to buy our first house.
