    sounds fun, would make the day go faster! Lula has a theory that we should have at least five ogles a day and really at my workplace that's just not happening.

    David Beckham was my favourite ;) It was before the world cup where he got sent off, she was pregnant with Brooklyn at the time and he came in the shop and bought some baby stuff. No-one else recognised him except me and one of the lads who worked with me was a Man U fan so I ripped it out of him for ages afterwards :rotfl: He was truly scrummy :D

    it's blowing a gale here...brr...and pouring...would really like to go to the cinema but only have £6 of spends left till friday...determined not to go over budget though as I'm thinking I might have to add new boiler to list of stuff to do to flat. I'm trying to take comfort in the fact that it's self imposed poverty as I've moved too much into my savings account (if I move any out I lose the months interest so there's no chance of that!).

    Yay! I've been married 10 months, nearly 11, has it been that long :eek:

    It was a perfect day, and for a pessimist like me, thats saying something! The sun shone and everyone agreed it was a magical day :) Are you on facebook? I have hundreds of pictures on there!
