Monkey - OMG!!!!!!!! I didn't know you were R & F!! I saw the link to it on Facebook and was beyond excited. Love shabby chic. Have browsed it loads and can def see me purchasing as a gift (or for self) before too long. V cool love! Sorry to hear about OH at work - what's been the outcome today?

Haha, yes it's me. I must have been in disguise. I thought that it showed up that it was me though? I guess not. :cool: Glad you like it though! I'm really enjoying doing it, just wish I could keep everything for myself. The site still needs more work, but it's getting there.

As for BF's work sitch, thanks everyone for your advice, but it seems it's all ok now. The worst outcome has been that the person who actually did the wrong thing is getting an 'informal chat', and bf doesn't seem to be getting the blame, which is good since it wasn't his fault anyway. I think basically he just panicked because the AM and Manager seem to have a habit of using him as a scape goat (or an escape goat as one of my friends used to say :rotfl:) To be honest, I think that the AM was miffed with him because of something which happened previously where the AM made a mistake, and was trying to get him back. But anyway, all's well that ends well!

Princess, good to see you back, and congrats on the competition. I don't know why you would think of giving up? If it's something you enjoy, then carry on doing it as long as you can.

Ebbs, sooo sorry that I forgot to say congrats for getting the job. I think because I'd thought about saying it, that my brain thought I already had said it!

Tills, glad your cat is back. phew. And I know what you mean about the feeling old thing (from fb), so many times I find myself doing/thinking old person things. Like watching Grumpy Old Men/Women and agreeing all the way through! And other stuff like getting overly excited about cleaning products or helpful household gadgets!

Told you she'd come back Tilly! I think every now and then cats like to have a 'stretch of their legs' and see what's round the next corner- even if they are not normally explorers. Still worries me when Harold does a bunk for a few days The last time he disappeared for 3 days we were going away the next day and I was worried he wouldn't come back b4 we went, but he moseyed on home the night before. Silly Cat! :rolleyes:

Slightly random question, but does anyone have any suggestions of somewhere that sells cheap but decent toys, or that has a toy sale on or anything? Needs to be an actual shop, rather than web, as I need to get something for tomorrow.

Have you tried Home Bargains or B&M Stores..they both do cheap and cheerful toys:) but not actually dedicated toy shops IYKIM:)

And Princess you would look gorgous in all jailbird outfits;):D And as for the comps, if you enjoy them keep doing them:)

What's B&M? I don't think we have a home bargains. Bummer. Will see if I can look in Argos on way home from work. It's for a 4th birthday, I don't even really know what to get, but hopefully something will strike me.

They tend to be big warehousey types stores, have a look at this linky and see if theres one near you:) Also have a look at the grabbit board, there's usually quite a few instore offers people have found on there. x

Monkey - just had a good old nose at your profile and I am so excited. I don't know anyone else who has even seen the film Clue, let alone that can quote from it as extensively as me. Love it!!!! x

Princess - lovely to see you back dude.

Have been trying to catch up with all the posts - but have been doing that reading backwards things - its just not happening for me. Sorry all - but Tilly v glad your cat is back:j
