    Not the best of days then. No point bashing yourself over the head now though. New day tomorrow and you are going to sort it out by being good and not undoing all the hard work so far.

    Got it?

    Otherwise i will be coming to sort you out. :p

    Oh well it had been one of those days so just say to deserve it. I have just had a 3 course meal at Frankie and Bennys (MS) ate so much I can hardly move. Good think is I do not feel like anoher glass of wine so only had 1 tonight. Shame about the car hope its not too expensive to fix.

    Amazingly I am up and I don't have a headache!!!

    I watered the garden last night in my slighly drunk state, managed to trip over the hose pipe..twice!!! If the neighbours were watching they would have had such a laugh, me pretending to be sober doing the garden at 11pm:rotfl:

    Went to bed, shut my eyes and the room started moving.....god I felt like a teenager, how rediculous!

    Re: the car it looks fine, am hoping a bit of T cut will do the job, no dents (that I can see - as my father in law says'thats what bumpers are for'):rotfl:

    On the food front, I have four days until weigh day, should manage to (hopefully) limit the damage (that or have Cha chasing me:eek:)

    Okie dokey, better go and make myself look presentable as we are going to friends for lunch:eek:

  • Well the hangover never appeared, for which I am most grateful!:D

    Been carp on the diet again today, I feel like I'm hitting the self distruction button at the moment and don't really know why..oh well tomorrow is another day.:o

    My work shoes fell apart last week, Clarks were very good and refunded me the money, but do you think I can find another pair that are sensible, actually fit and don't cost more than £45..like hek I can. This is where ebay comes in, the trouble is ebay really should have a manditory breath test before peeps are allowed to bid. I currently have 3 bids on different shoes totalling just over £60 - hmmm, this sounds like the GG handbag senerio:rotfl:

    I have listed some clothes on there today and have many more items to add, just need to make the effort to photograph other items and write up nice descriptions:cool:

    Tomorrow I have 9 mystery shops to do so will not have time to do much else.

    Hope everyone had a great weekend.

    Hmm, well it seemed like a good idea to accept more MShops for today - until it came to writing them all up that is:eek: . I left the house at 10:20 returned at 16:40, had a quick shower and walked the dog, then started on the long hall of writing up the visits - needless to say I have only just finished, I have to confess to having two loo breaks along the way :p

    Cue stage and smoke: Today Matthew I am going to be:

    · A new business owner looking to open a business bank account x 2
    · A single mother of two looking to find out what benefits I am entitled too (note to oneself, if paying this role it may be best to take of wedding ring before entering:p)
    · A new cat owner needing to find out the best cat food and flea treatment (am feeling itchy now!)
    · A photographic student looking to purchase a new laptop to do photo editing on
    · A technophobe looking to buy a new but not technical mobile phone (this one suits me!!):rotfl:
    · An aunty looking to buy her 17 year old neice a piece of jewelry
    · An annoyed customer of a large supermarket asking why checkouts were not all open at silly O’clock on a Friday night/morning (email on thank goodness!)
    · A very nosey/pain of a customer of a large supermarket, asking silly questions about the whereabouts of simple items
    · A rather loaded woman looking for a holiday in a five star hotel in the Canaries (I really want a holiday now)
    · A not quite so well to do woman looking for a holiday in Greece.

    Hopefully I will sleep well tonight, I think I might have next Monday off!!

    I have a really sore throat and a something has bitten my neck - no it wasn't my hubby:p I think it was some sort of bug:mad:

    And breathhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhheeeeee :o

    I didn't win the first two pairs of shoes on ebay, just one pari left now, still not sure if thats good or not??

    You are clearly barking. 9 shops in one day? How on earth do you remember it all? More to the point how on earth do you find the energy to do them in the first place?

    You must be a much better actor than me! I only ever did one MS and I was too traumatised after that to try anymore.. lol! I'm 95% sure I was sussed too! :rotfl: Knowing me I'd have been the new business owner buying nieces jewellery or loaded woman investigating benefits! :rotfl:

    SmlSave - :eek: How many! :eek: :rotfl:

    *Wanders off whistling about how much I'll be spending on a pair of skates £110 - £180 :eek: I hope the cheaper ones fit me better with thinner socks on... gulp! :whistle:*
