    Ah thats a shame, i think it would be fun to do those sort of bits. What have you planned for your wedding then? Anything exciting, havent heard you speak much about it. I love hearing all the plans :D

    Seriously cant focus on writing a review, getting really frustrated with myself, because its not like i've got anything else to do!! :mad: Just cant seem to get started.

    Lulu - Annoyingly, I often find that I can whack reviews out when there's a million other things that need to be done, but not when things are quiet!

    Dinah - Congrats on getting the credit card paid off and hope you hear something positive back from NIMs dad this week on the deposit.

    Im the opposite Dippy. Done all the housework and everything so i could sit down and get on with it, but now i just cant be bothered. Its not that i dont want to, i just cant seem to focus. Must be able to knock out some kind of rubbish - will try harder!

    Changed my pic on Dooyoo, so make sure you all look out for my username, so you recognise me :D

    I find that too Dippy. When I'm sat around thinking, 'Right, I've got nothing to do so I'll write some reviews' nothing comes. When I've got other things to be doing they pop into my head!

    Right now I've got a tub of cocoa butter moisturiser, a handbook for a phone headset thing and a lip gloss waiting to be reviewed!
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

    I got my cheque today!! yey! Will get that paid in asap :) So lulu - there is hope! think this has only really taken 2.5 weeks, so pretty good!
    Cinny we're having a eurovish party in May!! Lol! My friend is swedish and she loves it all! Not to sure about our "josh" but he beats that skooch airplane one anyday!
    I kinda churned out a reveiw this morning for the challenge :$ but I want to do another one tonight! I've suggested something so we'll have to see!
    Dippy I don't know how you've written so many! youre a genius!

    Lucky!! I try and convince people that it would be fun if we did one but they look at my like I said 'Hey, wanna come around to mine and kill puppies?!' I think Esma would have won YCNY if she hadn't of forgotten the words though, she was pretty good. Better than Josh and had all the hair in the world! Yay for getting the cheque too! :T

    I think that it's great donating to a charity too Dinah. Very worldy! :D Tbf, if I were you I'd be too busy getting excited about the honeymoon to think about flowers ect! Is it 3 1/2 weeks you're going for? Or did I completely make that up?

    Lol thanks but I've officially dried up now and can't find anything else to review. I've literally done everything I've ever used up until now! On my list at the moment is two book reviews so no idea how I'll even get to 20k points at this rate never mind 50k!

    When did you redeem your cheque? I seem to recall that you redeemed yours a few days before me so if you've got yours today, I should get mine soon too!

    We're thinking £150 to Cancer Research and £150 to another charity that we haven't decided on yet!

    3 weeks, oh trust me I'm excited about that bit! I can't WAIT for the honeymoon and coming back to our own house. I really am looking forward to the big day, but I can't help feel it doesn't really matter what flowers we have and the like!

    Dooyoo have unblocked me!!! I may not be overly active on the rating for fear of overrating one specific person, or rating too quickly or anything, but at least I can write again! So what exactly is the aim of this challenge you're all on?

    yey!! just noticed youre back on there. I think the challenge is just who can make the most points in the next 10 weeks (but then its more personal to you like I would like to redeem another cheque by the end of April and just that kind of thing!)
    quick quiz - who can guess what food I just had for dinner?
