    Afternoon, lovelies!

    Glad the job trial went well, Magpye and good luck for tomorrow.
    I'm feeling a trifle delicate after last night's booze-up but was up at 7.30am for the boot sale and Jon's just sorting me a couple of veggie sausage baps with musrooms and poached eggs (yum yum).
    I'm dying to have a look at our bargains but am forbidden to until after we've eaten.
    Just about caught up with the gossip. My main crush is Jarvis Cocker and has been for about 15 years. I can just visualise the two of us touring the UK's Oxfam shops in his Hillman Imp ...bliss.

    Good choice Jarvis used to be a big crush of mine!

    Afternoon ladies :)

    didn'tgo to the car boot as it was piddling down here tis morning but am hopefully going next week. Im a bit sad atm as Ive had some bad news- my great uncle as diagnoised with cancer a few months back and he had to get taken to hospital end of last week as they thought he had a stroke- turns out the cancer has spread to his brain and he has a massive tumour....docs wont give a definite figure on how long he ha left, hes 80 though so its not looking good....I feel like Ive cried so much this morning my eyes are sore.

    My mum is going up to see him next weekend but I dont know if I can-for one its the kids and 2 he used to be such an active man and now apparently he cant talk properly or anything...I dont know if I want to see him like that....its bringing back memories of when my great aunt died- I was so close to her- closer than I was to my mum but I never got to see her before she went....I have a lot of thinking to do...I dont have very many family left now...

    sorry long post feels better just telling someone :(

    Afternoon girls,

    DH is off today so is hogging the TV watching Rangers v Dundee and recording the Bahrain GP, so I'm relegated to the laptop. He did make me a bacon sandwich for breakfast though, so he gets away with it. ;)

    Could barely be bothered this morning:

    Cherry print split toe pumps (Office)
    Bare legs :eek:
    Blue gingham and check tiered skirt (DP)
    Black t-shirt

    Off to play Bejeweled Blitz on Facebook (addicted, me?) The job trial went quite well I think, was there for three hours instead of one (till closing time) - they still have a couple of people to trial, so I probably won't find out if I have the job until later this week. Another interview tomorrow though.

    I know who won:p I am too a F1 widow lol

    Glad the job went well hun x
