    Jewellery as presents for various people. There's so much I want for myself but I'm trying to resist.

    Yup, Friday for me. But then I'm away on holiday which won't be cheap and there are nights out and days away in July, argh! I think I'm trying to narrow it down to absolute musts ie - I really need a new black bra and a couple of tshirts. I think all the other stuff is just want rather than need and I can make myself wait if I have to.

    actually, i dont' think i have that many expenses in july now.
    obviously the usual, rent and bills..but after that..two of my weekends are guide-related camps, both paid for in advance.
    following weekend i guess will just be petrol / anythign else we decide.... ;)
    so not much..may be able to affford a cheap holiday (here's hoping!)

    ETA - added to which, i have a LOT of outstanding MS pay to come this week - think i may knock on the head after that though, as it's not really worth it after taxing for the amount of time..

    and i'm doign a car boot this weeikend, which may help a little, will certainly help with the space available in the flat lol

    do you think it's nerd-like to have the same pair of shoes in all three different colours? if you reeeally like the shoes?? :S

    You do seem like you're spending an excessive amount of time MS-ing at the moment!

    It's the petrol part of the hol that's going to be expensive :( We're going Liverpool - Peterborough - Watford (dumping the car and going to London for a few days) - Tunbridge Wells - Yeovil and then back to Liverpool. It'll cost a flipping fortune!! Ah well, I'll only be paying half of it and all the hotels and theatre etc are booked and paid for so I suppose it could be worse.

    Ask me a proper question, of course it's not! :rotfl:

    Hmmm, what colours are they, if it was something really different like a bright, a neutral and a pastel then that would be OK I guess but if they are 3 shades of pink then yes a bit excessive IMO!

    What shoes might they be?

    I'm back..... just incase anyone spotted my absence. My holiday was amazing and I'm sad to be back but not back to work for another week so yay.

    Will be so hard to catch up with everyone but off to have a nosy around blogs. Will post on my own soon and I'm sure the next few posts will be holiday tales and snaps.

    Hugs to you all!
