    Would mean being in the lounge and there are too many people and rabbits in there! Getting the house to ourselves again the last weekend of Spetember. Will be bliss.

  • Too many rabbits! Ah, really would be like being in the country!! Half price pizza and Orange Wednesday treat?

    It occurred to me that if I want to see a film after we start our classes I'll have to pay full because I won't be able to go on a Wednesday! :eek:

    You could try to get the free tickets? I have free tickets for one next Mon or Tue, can't remember, but don't know if we'll be able to go. I think the class finishes at 8pm, you could always go after. Have you been down to Middlehaven for the second stage of enrollment yet?

    Nope, going to be next week before I can get it done I think. No idea when the course starts either mind!

    Travelodge £12 room sale is on! Just got one Saturday night in Leeds for £12 as I've never really been, and its supposed to be nice, and it just happens to coincide with the end of the January sales :rolleyes: Looked for Harrogate and York and Newcastle too but nothing at £12 on a Saturday night. Picked a completely random day and if we can't go, we loose £12, not the end of the world.

    Oh and also, I faced the scales today expecting them to show I'd put back on at least 5lbs - but I've lost another 3lbs! 1 more and I'm under 10 stone!!

    I'm looking at the sale rooms too Dinah, trying to find something for OHs Birthday but no real luck so far. Rooms are coming up at £19, but to be fair that's still a bargain.

    OH got some vouchers through from Pizza Hut too - 3 courses for £8.99 so that's dinner for tomorrow. Was left alone at work for an extra hour last night, and in turn my amazon wish list is maaassive. Found this one book called 'The Brontes went to Woolworths', has anyone read it? I'm really tempted!

    Hope you're feeling a bit happier today Dinah! Well done on the weight loss too!

    Nope but I think that one is on my wishlist too!

    All my new cookbooks arrived from The Book People last night, I have an addiction I think. Really need my own house so I can make all these things and stop just drooling over them!

    So, NIM and my mum think we should get married this November as we found a cracking deal! I want time to get used to the idea!!! I've created MSE monsters!

    That is a cracking deal! Just googled it and the place is sooo pretty!

    Nothing wrong with an addiction to Cookery books! Our collection is stupid - we have a cupboard full in the kitchen, about 20 so on the side and loads still in the Study.

    Found some Hotels for OHs Birthday now, I think! One night in Kendal then one night in Blackpool for £38. Just deciding if I should book or not!

    Thats a great deal Cinny and Kendal is lovely.

    I looked around their website some more and there is a 80 person one available next year for 5k, not such a great deal but still pretty great. Might have to go view it. Also keen on one near Yarm that is in a converted stables.
