    Oh dear Lara, you've led me into temptation! I want this! Oooh and this! And this! And... oh all of it!

    I don't know what I'm going to do to top the burger cakes Cinny! I need inspiration!

    Lara - What have you started?! :D

    Birdie, not a clue with the cupcakes! Maybe because it's a 'when you grow up' theme you could do real kiddy ones? With bright primary colour icing and so on :)

    Working in a blind panic atm, just taking a break before my head pops. My Sisters boyfriend has randomly broken up with her so I'm a mission to get back home asap, going to use the last of this weeks spends money to buy chocolate and vimto. She sounded so heartbroken on the phone :( I'm nearly crying myself, stupid sisterly bond!

    I have to admit i would probably be one of the boring people in the playboy bunny outfit...actually there are quite a few pics of me in bunny ears on facebook haha.

    The Barbie princess outfit sounds like a great idea for a hen do, you could do a barbie theme and people could come as work out barbie or whatever they want! I was going to do a Barbie and Action Man themed birthday once.

    Cinny - your poor sister, is horrible when someone so close is upset, hope you cheer her up a bit :(

    My friend was on about having a full on Barbie theme for my hen party, I hope it happens because I do love Barbie... I've seen the dress I want to wear for it but it was £150 in the sale!!!!! :eek: It's a massive pink prom dress covered in sparkles.... so pretty!

    I'm sorry for your sister Cinny, poor girl! Hope you succeed in making her feel better :(

    Thanks :) She fell asleep so I've left her be, but I'm going to wake her in a bit because I don't want her not being able to sleep tonight and be up thinking. She seems okay at the moment, but I just think that's because it hasn't sunk in yet :(

    Love the sound of the maybe hen do though Birdie! Link to the dress? :D

    Your poor sis, sounds very sudden :( I think it calls for a girlie pamper night with ice cream and marshmallows.

    Ah Lara, was almost tempted to go for the whale pitcher thing rather than the cow milk jug I'd seen, then saw it was about £150 more expensive!!

    I don't know the make of the dress, I saw it in a little shop in town so I can't get a link! It looks a bit like this though.

    How's your sister Cinny? That sounds awful. Had they been together long? She's lucky to have you there for her. :)

    Birdie that type of dress is not my thing at all but I'd love to try it on! Your fancy dress parties sound great. I've never done fancy dress! (Other than halloween when you're like 10!) :o The Barbie hen party sounds so much fun!

    Poddle, the trapeze sounds terrifying! You're very brave. I'd love to skydive but I think I'd wimp out. I'm applying for CampAmerica next week though so that should be fun if I get to go.

    I have a problem with spending on stuff I don't need so as part of my saving for a house thing, I am going to make a list of things I'll need for the house, price it up, then I have specific items to save for so it will almost be like I'm spending! I can tick each item off when I've saved for it. I feel good about this plan. :D

    I agree Birdie, I don't 'like' that dress as such, but I'd love to put it on and swish about in it :D

    Yes hope your sis is doing ok Cinny :(

    Good plan Zig, and good luck with the CA application, would be an amazing experience!

    Where's Dinah?
