    Thanks Laura, it's not going to come down much next month as had my holiday to pay, so although will be paying quite a bit, will look like I've paid zilcho!

    Well done on your weight loss, just noticed siggy! Not that you look like you need to lose much anyway.

    Well thank crunchie it's Friday, been really slacking off recently so having to get as much done today as possible, supposed to be relaxing on a Friday as well!

    Roll on the weekend!

    Links sausage is what we call "normal" sausages as they're all linked together. Otherwise it's square sausage (I think that's called Lorne Sausage too??)

    Any sausage = good :D

    Thanks :D Everyone says I don't need to loose much- but I was nearly 3st overweight! I must just give an impression of thinnes which isn't actually true :p Had a big loss this week 'cos I was really really really good last week, but I don't have the energy to be that strict this week so hopefully just a small loss next week :)

    Don't F_F, you are making me hungry (and I've just had lunch)!

    I certainly don't think you look 3 stone overweight, at all! According to my scales I'm a stone overweight but don't feel THAT ba, but then again according to S.Size V S.Skinny, for my height I should be 7.5 stone, aye right, I weight that when I was 7 and a half! Slight exaggeration there, but still, it's what you feel comfortable with and remember you have over a year til the wedding, so take is slowly!

    I've been looking at houses/flats (although won't be buying for at least another year) and there are some lovely ones, love looking at other people's decor. There was one with a ahem lovely kitchen which had a MIRROR behind the cooker, em Naked Chef springs to mind...... Or maybe it was a two-way mirror so the wife/hubby can watch the other cooking, make sure they aren't poisoning them, ha!

    Ok, remember the dye job I did last night?! Well, when I was drying it, I thought I had missed a bit right at the front roots, turns out I have as I've just been looked at strangely by three different people and told my hair looks 'different'! As it is red it's very hard to see properly but I guess other people looking at it in the light they can see a mile away parts have been missed! Help, what to do?? Can I rescue it? I still have the bottle of dye, could I try using the surplus, will it work, help?!

    I wouldn't use the left over stuff as it keeps reacting in the bottle and you could end up a completely different colour! I'd probably get a new bottle and try and catch the bits you missed. What a b*ll ache though :o:p

    Hi all,

    Thanks for that Laura, I didn't end up using the dye, I just left it and no-one else has commented so far, the guys in work who noticed are worrying me now though, ha!

    Well had a good night at the party, haven't counted my dosh yet but don't think I spent TOO much, hope not as ended up worse for wear today and all the alcohol consumed is now down the loo! TMI I know but I haven't felt this rough in ages, glad not going to the party next Saturday as don't think I could face another drink.

    Going to have some dinner since only managed one spoonful of breakfast this morning then have a nice bath and get stuff sorted for tomorrow. Nite all x

    Afternoon all, can you believe it has taken this long to feel like normal again, well as normal as I can be!

    Have had a MEGA spendy weekend, nothing I didn't need though. I got my walking boots, trousers, socks, backpack and a waterproof jacket, wasn't TOO expensive and it will hopefully all last for a while i.e. won't be replacing anything anytime soon. I always knew the initial outlay would be a wee bit but least I'm all kitted out now.

    Told the same guy who commented on my hair that I had got my walking boots and instead of saying 'that's good', he was like 'you need to be fit to go walking', !!!!!!! Honestly no-one (especially him) has a good word to say, if the girl I work with is doing something she's great, if she's eating fruit, she's great. What does Swinstie get when she's eating grapes?! - They're full of sugar! Grrrrrr

    That's the last time I mention anything I'm doing in future. Negative, negative, negative!

    No wonder I'm on here so much, the support is so much better (and nicer)!

    ETA: Another guy has just commented on my hair - he said it was nice, at last someone with a nice comment to make!
