    Afternoon all.

    Makeup, whereabouts in Cornwall were you? The weather was beautiful yesterday... did you get to enjoy it or were you travelling back already?

    .

    Hey TDQO

    We were staying in Watergate Bay just near Newquay and spent y'day morning / early afternoon in Boscastle. It was dry and warm-ish but not particuarly sunny. A nice day for March though! The witches museum was closed and this is the second time I've been to Boscastle with intention of seeing witch museum but it is clearly only open in Summer season. :(
    I've got my own flat :j:j

    Now I have to pay the bills :eek:

    And feed my interiors addiction ;)

    Hi all back from the canal , we finished at 4 and were sawing, cutting trees out of the canal near bolton, gloves, hard hats, high vis vests and wellies. Hard work, but plenty of brews and biscuits for energy and lots of banter and laughter, it was ace and i am now becoming a member of the british waterways society now. next time is at agecroft near prestwich next month. Lots of trees cleared and then the silt will have to machine lifted out of the canal. Just had bath, aching all over, but exercise without going to the gym.

    used the facial cream on my face and its left a little rash and it was stingy, every cream i try stings, but its took some of it off.
    :rotfl:

    Sounds like you've had a good day, and you are sounding much more upbeat :A

    Evening all! Date went well I think...well we spent all day together eating, drinking, talking and laughing. He's funny and really nice :) Feel a bit flat now though, but think I'm just tired.

    Sounds like there's been nice days going on for other SAID'ers aswell :)

    Butterflies - I'm glad you're enjoying the volunteering. If you're after a more permanent solution instead of cream, there is electrolysis (I'm not sure if anybody else has mentioned it). I think it might be cheaper than laser and would probably work no matter what your colouring.

    Hi all:)

    Gwen, am so glad you enjoyed your date:jAre you seeing him again?

    I weighed mysel this morning and I haven't lost anything:(. I am happy with 4lbs for this month though and will try for 5lbs again next month.

    Spent the day doing some housework, wrote a few more listings, lounged round listening to the radio and am now relaxing with a glass of wine:D. I am taking the week after the Easter Weekend off so am looking forward to lots more lounging around, I am feeling really tired at the moment and could do with lots of lie ins:)

    Hope everyone has had a good weekend:)

    Haha I've never been to Boscastle and certainly wouldn't go there in the rainy season... :eek:

    There are soooo many interesting museums in Cornwall and in my 3yrs down here I've been to... none of them. Ooops.

    Am currently pulling an all nighter to get my last ever written assignment in for my degree. Now I just have my dissertation, a computer design assignment, 2 exams and a 3wk feasibility study to complete and I'm home free!
