    I've used Passata in the past. I use a bit in something and then top the bottle up with a bit of water to make it last longer.

  • doesn't matter. Just see it as part of life that was a necessity rather than a 'want' or a flippant impulse buy. Stuff like water pumps will always come along in life, it's how you then deal with it that's important and another couple of months onto your DFD is neither here nor there - honest ;)

    I know. It's the silliest thing but I booked to see Love Never Dies (sequel to Phantom of the Opera) on 20th Feb. It'll probably completely bomb but if it doesn't, I want to say I was there on opening night. My DFD was due to be 11th Jan (next student loan date) and my treat was to see Phantom. Now I'll have to see the sequel without seeing the original. It's daft, I know. I've read the book, I know what happens. But I'm just really disappointed. :(

    I've seen mini eggs in a couple of places - first saw them a couple of days before Christmas. Certainly won't be buying any time yet - far too many chocs left from Christmas (and I also need to lose weight)

    I'm becoming a big believer in PMA. Over the last week or so, I've achieved so much, things that if I told you all, you'd possibly think were daft, but things I NEVER thought I'd be able to do. I'm facing the fear, and giving things a go. No regrets ;)

    I have written this on my FB page - it explains perfectly my current state of mind.


    You get one life, many opportunities, but only a limited amount of time – don’t waste it. No fears, no regrets
