    You guys will wonder how on earth you used to use the laptop on your legs after you get one of them!;)

    My ebay items are ending in a couple of hours, so i will be wrapping up all sold bits later this afternoon. Hopefully i will make a few quid on them, some dont have bids or watchers though. :(

    I forgot to put the other day i spent £25 of my argos vouchers on babyliss curling wand......omg its fantastic! The curls come out perfect, but oh my gosh is it hot! It goes upto 200c and the first time i used it i burnt my forehead with it, ouchy!!!!!!

    Ive got a little to do list today:

    Wash car (last week i did a rubbish job of it)
    Visit the retail park for dog food and face cream
    Package ebay items
    List new ebay items

    So looks like an expensive day as the dog food alone is £52!!!! Im hoping it will be on offer as it is online, either that or i might have to downgrade his food im afraid.

  • Hi Maria,

    Thought I'd pop into your diary again :)

    Your curling wand sounds amazing- I really want one cus I am rubbish at curling my hair with ghd's :(

    I have some ebay items ending today but hardly any of them have bids this week, which is rubbish. I'm struggling to find things to list now so thats prob why- it's most likely to all be tat that noone wants!

    Hope you have a productive day

    The curling wand sounds great. I love curling my hair but so much easier when I have someone to do it for me.

    Hope you manage to get everything you wanted done today.

    You girls are lucky, my hair is dead straight, no wave will stay in it longer than 2 seconds. Tried everything but it's a no,no. I know some people are jealous of having straight hair but when you have it, you want curls:).

    I'm waiting for ebay items to end as well, just hope I'll earn a couple of pounds.
    Have a nice sunday everyone,I'm off to have a nap ;).
  • I too can't use my GHD's for curling, the curls never come out. I borrowed my sisters curling wand a few weeks ago and they are brilliant. I struggle to do the back of my hair though.

    Hope you manage to find cheaper dog food, do you buy it in bulk so its a big one off payment? We're hoping to get a dog this year when we buy our house, and would love a dog, but would need to work out the costs i think.

    Hope you do well with your ebay items chick.

    I too have poker straight hair and have never found tongs that have curled my hair properly before. But these really do the job, i will be writing a Dooyoo about them this week! :D

    Yeah we buy 15kg bags of dog food. Poor thing has gone from having £50 Eukanuba to £10 Pal!!! My mum came home with it, i was planning on getting him Bakers which was £20. But hey ho, hopefully he will like it, were mizing the two to get his tummy used to it.

    My ebay items sold only £18 thats without fee's too. But better than nothing and more room in my bedroom after they go!

    Oh and me went to town and i spent £31!! Grrr, i cant stop spending! It was on a jumper from Jane Norman. But then OH bought a heater from argos so i gave him £20 of my vouchers and he gave me his £20 cash so really the jumper just cost me £10.
