    good going pp. and it seems as if you have all those preparations for holiday well laid out (with the gym and the leg waxing!!)

    lots of arms and tummy exercises then! hope the pub's okay tonight (england did give jamaica quite a few goals in the football today so people might be out celebrating)

    take care

  • Thanks melabarrie!! I am aiming to be as prepared as poss, rather than just using my wages at the last minute like I used to and now I have no credit card to chuck it all on! And trying to get as much free or reduced as poss!!!

    Right result, got £33 last night instead of £31.50!! :beer: Miscalculated!!

    Off to London this afternoon to my grandad's ready for my exams to start tomorrow:eek: :eek: :eek: so shan't be around until Wednesday. Hopefully will not spend too much while I'm away, got a big empty bottle to fill with water and got some ice blocks to keep my lunch cool while I'm out all day!:D

    Hope everyone keeps well and I shall see(!) you all when I get back!!

    Fingers crossed!!!

    xx

    fingers crossed for the exams, but you're well prepared, so you don't need luck.

    remember, we'll all be waiting here on wednesday to see that you've kept your hope of not spending too much.

    all the best!

  • Hullo hullo hullo!!!

    Well, yesterday was the most expensive day I've had in a long time!:rolleyes: £17.10 on a leg wax, that was with a discount, and she did a rubbish job that I had to go back yesterday evening for her to re-do it! She said she'd send some discount vouchers for next time, not sure there will be a next time!

    Spent £6.65 on a prescription.

    Then last night spent £25!!! :j :j Was a wicked night!!! Got some photo's SS! but not that messy!!! although today I have no voice and a HUGE bruise on my left knee!!! Might post a piccy of it later, is a humdinger!!:rotfl: It was a good night though!!

    Exams went ok lynz thanks, fingers crossed for results in August!!!! xx

    SS, it's not that i don't like London, I do, but to visit. It's a bit too busy for me, a seaside town bumpkin!!!:D :p :rotfl: I like to walk at a bit of a slower pace!!
