Cinny, I wouldn't be able to read a computer screen from about 6 inches away if I wasn't wearing my lenses!

I once bought a stick concealer from Boots (No17) and when I got home it was brokenat the bottom, so I took it back and really had to fight to get it exchanged - the stupid woman could see it had never been used. So don't go to Billingham branch with it!

Eek, plenty to focus on there! Are you going to do them all at once too? The savings I mean...

Gonna clear the OD first, then do the wedding savings, then after the wedding start on Japan.

Been reading your diary for a while and your determination to succeed is a real inspiration! Wishing you lots of luck with all the challenges you've got going on!

Cor they're some good challenges to be tackling! I think I need some... but I'll probably not be able to actually stick to anything because I never do! I wish I wasn't such a flake!

I've just spent the last hour wrapping up lots of little presents and labelling them 2-25 for OH's 'Advent Sack', he's had such a sulk on about my advent house and how unfair it is that I'm getting lots of pre-Christmas presents (which are all counted towards my Christmas allowance from my parents BTW!) that I ended up going to home bargains after work and getting loads of sweets and little toys for him! Big baby! I love Home Bargains, I found a load of Star Trek toys for a fraction of the RRP so I stocked up as I'm doing OH a Star Trek hamper for Christmas! I have no idea where he's going to put the big model of the USS Enterprise though, I may regret buying that! LOL!
