    Morning everyone.

    Up early as it's too hot again Yet another sunny day on the cards today it seems. I'm getting fed up with all this heat now!

    But I won't be joining you in a HHC Julie - I need another cup of tea and a bath first!

    And Jo - have a lovely day :bdaycake:

    I've had a cream coat from my catalogue - I really like it but I ordered the cream one as it was the only colour left. I obviously won't be able to use it for everyday wear because of the colour but I don't know whether to keep it or not as I don't know how much wear I'll get out of it and how quickly it'll get dirty - it's dry clean only. What do you think?

    Happy birthday to me! Happy Birthday to Me!!

    Im a tad excited, can you tell? I want to open all my cards which have arrived, but Im gonna wait for DS to get up first so I can open his first and he can help me.

    I supposed I could always go and poke him and make him wake up?

    :confused: What!!!??!!! He does it to me at christmas!!! :rotfl:

    Anyway, Im spending most of today at a football tournament :rolleyes: so im off to make a cup of tea then declutter myself into the shower.

    See you all later

    MWAH xx

    Thanks for the birthday wishes! xx

    Julie - i would send it back - you already doubt how much your gonna to wear it and in reality, you are going to wear it less that all the times you think you will. Your bumping up excuses to wear it (if your anything like me) cos you really like the jacket and want to keep it - and you still cant justify it.

    Rather than return it, is is possible to have it dyed a more practical colour? Or is it not that sort of coat?

    xx

    Morning ladies

    I'm up and raring to get this pit cleand up although everyone else is still in bed, and luckily I havent got up with the stinking headache I've woken up with for the last 2 mornings.

    Not actually dressed yet but going to crack on as I need to finish the declutter the clean the student room (including a scrub of the manky carpet :rolleyes: dont ever buy a cream carpet!!!)

    Have loads to do and am supposed to be going back to see the shop owner re the original dress I chose prior to seeing the other 2, (thanks for all your comments - still undecided but I think I will order both then send one back but it is unlikely that either will ever be worn again but theyre not costing the fortune of a wedding dress). Also supposed to be going and collecting my engagement ring which I'm having made bigger but that can wait too - THE FLYING CANT :eek:.

    Will pop in later with updates.

    Kaz x

    PS

    jj - I would probably send the cream one back and go for something more practical.

    jo - have a fabulous birthday and hey yeah wake him up, but be a little more subtle than a prod like banging doors loudly or dropping stuff (unbreakable of course)
    Mortgage, we're getting there with the end in sight £6587 07/23, otherwise free of the debt thanks to MSE help!
