I hate them - I keep seeing them on people over 14 and it makes me feel unwell, its like the sparkles/seqiuns trend this xmas - great but if your over 25 no chance of working it unless the piece is very expensive!!

And dont get me started on the stupid shoulder pads in dresses thing!

Wasn't that back in the 80's...well thats when I wore them last as a teenager. You mean to say they are back..pmsl I am SO out of touch with fashion

I hate the sales so I'm glad they finish early now - I like to buy stuff ahead of trend or classic not last season (leather look leggings anyone :eek:)

Cant wait to get my bonus at the end of Jan - got some lovely pieces picked out that I'm going to buy including some new leather boots

Pap - you will get there - didnt you lose 8lbs this week!!

:rotfl: Becky, what I dont understand is all this neon stuff. I kid you not a lady was in my work on Tuesday wearing a neon scarf and those leg warmers. Only problem is she must have been at least 45+ :rolleyes: I usually take no notice and think each to there own but I did laugh at her

Ohh is that a money bonus from work Becky You will have to show us your boots when you buy them :rotfl:

Yep 8lbs, but most of it was water due to totm. The thing that is amazing is each time I lose weight I am at the lowest weight of my adult life. Well the lowest weight I have ever known myself. So every week its amazing. Next week I will be in the 11stomes which is fantastic :beer: I wuldnt have been able to do it without the support of those one here and in real life though. So I owe it to loads of people

I am bored of Taggart now, I think I may go to bed soon and finish my christmas book, 'a christmas carol'. I have never read it before only watched different tv series/movies and it actually a very good book :j

I do it when I am at work (I never bite them over the weekend) I know why - its because I suck my thumb at home but obviously dont at work so its just something else for my teeth to do - I tried rolling blue tack in my hands but that didnt help so I am going to be weird and suck my thumb at work for a while on and off and see if that helps break the habit

if it helps...why not

Yeah back for now (but will be out again in a few weeks hopefully)!

I am hoping for some colour in the spring (winter has been very black/grey) and some more straight shapes so thats what I'm after at the moment and if I buy carefully it doesnt matter if they take a bit longer to come back as it should be pretty classic as well!

Neon is two seasons ago Pap - tell her that

11 stones wow!!! That is great - I cant believe how much dedication you have given to this

Yeah I'm getting a one off payment for work outside of my remit - after tax it will be around £1000 so I am saving half and spending half on clothes and a 50th pressie for my mum!

Becky, I totally agree about leather look leggings, they're vile. and what on earth are 'treggings' (I think that was it), I've kept seeing them in the sales.

Is that Dickens Pap? If you like that you will LOVE David Copperfield - its my favourite Dickens (although Little Dorrit is also very good)

Eh up Gun Jack!

You're doing well on the list Snags
