Hi everyone!! Just quickly popping in to say hi!!!:j

Have finished my eight long days at work and now it is the weekend!:j

It is now the point of the month were I disappear for a few days to get all the competitions done that end on the 30th done!! Always find doing this rather fruitful but does take a bit of time and effort!!

So will be back and catch up when I have got that done!

Have a great weekend everyone x x x x

And I need some ideas from all you clever helpful people!!

Next Friday me & DH are off to Butlins for our 80s weekend, and I am still not sorted for our fancy dress :eek: Obviously I have no spare money :rolleyes: to buy or hire costumes, so can anyone suggest anything fairly simple that I could throw together???

Few ideas, maybe some of your local charity shops will have something -

Stonewash skinny jeans
Layered/ra'ra skirt's
Flourescent / loud colours
Bright coloured t-shirts/spandex & leggins (think Fame)
Shoulderpadded blouse/jacket (Dynasty etc)
Big earrings/necklaces
Big hairsprayed/punk hair
loads of eyeshadow

:j:j I managed to 'escape' from work early :j:j

Sorry to hear about the interview Candy - hope you find something you like soon.

Just about to cook supper

Trying to think what to wear to a wedding tomorrow Work has been too manic to spare the time to go shopping. I have a nice enough dress, but my only pair of heels has fallen apart :eek: (though in fairness they are very old - I can't walk in many pairs, due to extreme clumsiness - but can hobble around in these, or at least I could before the soles fell off :eek:) I am envious of your stiletto dexterity Fay :rotfl:


Oh well, I'm sure nobody will be looking at my feet anyway, so I will just wear something comfy.

Have a nice evening everyone :hello:

Don't be I now have killer calves that don't fit into most boots and strggle to get into most wellies and I am 5ft 0 and my best chum was 5 8 and use to wear heels - so as much as i fell off them - they were sure needed

Good luck on you shoe hunt

- no heating
- meals from whatever I can find in the house !
- No Spend Day
- checked for freebies
- used some more freebie toiletries
- made a big list of things to get sorted this weekend (to keep me out of trouble and focussed - nothing very exciting, but things I've been putting off)
- checked CCCS website
- smoked less so as to delay the need to buy tobacco until tomorrow - eek !
- used free texts to keep in touch
- will read tonight for free entertainment
- given DS his pocket money
