    Really believe in trying to save pennies to spend on luxuries (handbags, Starbucks etc)

    You're so lucky having a starbucks, I'd cheerfully kill for that!

    Sexy beer?
  • Don't get them as often as I would like, don't go past one often enough (hell never go PAST one). It summer so Im in Frappucino mode. I do also MS by making my own latte, with the maker hubby bought (well I ordered/paid for/ opened the box, which he couldn't be arsed to wrap) me for birthday. I also MS by getting free coffee grounds from SB for the garden.

    Homemade latte is good but can't get a Frappucino right. Oh and can't source any peppermint syrup either and have the last shot left for the morning. SB sold it for a while but it was xmas only and I didn't realise that till it was all sold out. grrrr.....

    And one day your dreams will come true, lived the lean years myself crawled out of it and went upwards.
    The best things in life are NOT free - but they sure are cheaper with MSE!:j

    oooh yes I was forgetting my Birkenstock collection which changes into my Timberland collection in winter (all comfortable sensible shoes!). Oh and that pair of purple sparkly DM's I wanna buy for the SKA weekend./QUOTE]

    Tried on so totally senseless shoes in New Look the other day. sparkly pink stilletoes, gorgeous, but resisted. Some sexy shoes for the summer are calling me though:o

    I gotta pair of leather Docs covered in flowers-no black bits! Love the purple velvet pairs in the shops.

    For summer, gotta collection of rocket dog string ballet shoes, and beaded flats. Also, couple of pairs of next retro flats (got for £2.50 and £5) and a gorgeous pair of metal grey suede next boots fot for £5 too! Ahh, the next sale.......its fab :)

    Have also got pair of stiletto thigh boots....but thats another story ;)

    Re the ironing - I hate doing it, so for minimum creases I wash on 'minimum iron' setting, then hang on hangers in my conservatory to dry.:p

    Awww! Never mind, worth a try. I'm nice but no good at diy too!

    Yep, big brother, I watch it all the time. Love people watching so this show is fab for me. Love Nikki-she's barmy. Want to slap 'sorry for herself' Lea. Watched a bit of the milk task, gosh, was imodium actually doing something interesting????? (swoon).


    You'll have to hire someone.....surely someone on this thread can do DIY :)

    I don't particuarly like any of them :rotfl: Hopefully some interesting people in the new house, although I'm not banking on it :rotfl:

    Think wannabe's like me and likes to celebrate her birthdays.

    for my 41st this year I went to local outlet village an bought several bags. Then bought some nice chocolate, and went home with a bottle of red - all by myself (pants). I got the total amount of 0 cards or presents, so I buy the prezzys myself!!!

    Today........................

    I saw my nephews and have had too much sun.......I never get too much sun, i've had to put some lotion on :rolleyes:

    First bit of chocolate for 5 weeks, and 3 packets of crisps, having only had 2 packets in 5 weeks. I always eat rubbish when I go see my estranged family!

    I went back as it would have been my Mum's B'day today, so I bought some flowers for myself and siblings to put on grave.

    I played with nephews alot, and they are so energetic, I think even with the rubbish food, I must have lost weight!

    Since I been online, checked eBay....nothing new :( I only ever buy Britney things ( Well I bought 2 football DVD's once and a b'day present for my flatmate!!) )

    eBay used to be fun. Now I sign in and it's people selling the same old things, with excessive postage :rolleyes:
