  • Hey everyone!

    Just an update, date when really well, he is lovely! He also took me to pics during the week, brought me flowers, picked me up from work so he could see me for an hour, popped over to set up my wii for my DD, and is coming over for takeaway tonight for a couple of hours...I think we can safely say he's keen! Bless him, he's lovely!

    How is everyone else doing? Sounds like theres a couple of good weekends planned!

  • Morning! So feel like I should be knocking out the zzzzzzzzs but DD doesn't agree and is playing on singstar. Little madam!

    Hope your headache is gone Gwen, and how is the new store opening going Souk? Are you enjoying it? I moved to Zara from Next last week and am finding it a bit weird to change my ways! Doesn't help that I've stepped down from management to drop my hours so I am a lowly sales assistant again- I have to bite my tongue not to tell the young ones to stop slouching on the desk and get on with some work!

    Saturday today...has everyone got an exciting day planned?I was hoping to go to seaside but the weather doesn't look as good as yesterdays, so thats prob out the window! Any ideas where to go in Yorkshire to keep a 6 year old entertained? xx

    Hey CB, no ideas re Yorkshire I'm afraid! Yeah store has been busy since we reopened but I've been doing some mental hours! Had our big event and Directors up on Thursday and it all went really well. Off today though which is a bonus so going out for a posh lunch with some mates. It could be messy!

  • OOh, are you gonna get all dressed up? I love posh lunches like that! Glad to hear works going well tho x
  • Wish you luck clarabella with your new fella, I have chatted to a few guys and one on okcupid stopped messaging me and one on plentyoffish did the same, i think some of them are players. Anyway there is one guy who seems ok and called philip he gave me his mobile number so have texted him to say hello this morning but nothing back yet so will wait and see.
    My money situ is bit better this month. I am £200 into the £550 overdraft and got to get my car tax by 31/3 but will pay by cheque in post office so will get it thursday. I am being really careful, have cancelled my gym dd and sent them a cheque for this month so I dont incur bank charges, my last payment is 15/5 for that and they have just put it up from £28 a month to £29. I am only going to pay them £28 as I think its a damn cheek they put it up when I have just asked them not to renew it on the 15/5/10. they may complain about the cheque but I am going to stand my ground. Off to asda soon for bits to make cookies but need to eat some salad for lunch as I don't think I am eating enough healthy stuff and a cheapy wine for later and some nice dessert thats healthy.

    Morning/afternoon all :D

    Butterflies, that is a bit cheeky of the gym, I refuse to sign up to a gym contract anymore, I'm getting a short membership at my uni gym when my next loan comes in and I'll pay cash up front for the 3 months then I don't have to worry about them taking money off me when they shouldn't.

    Clarabella, good news about the date, hope he turns out to be a good 'un!

  • Evening all, well the guy I have been texting today from pof has phoned me tonight and he made me laugh all the way through the twenty minute conversation, hes soppy like me, likes all sorts of films, only lives twenty mins away in the car and his favourite film that makes him cry was bambi and funnily enough that was my fave disney film too.

    hes ringing me again later and texted me to say I sound really nice and caring.:D

    I am well excited!
