I have to sleep in a bra too! Never come across anyone else who does except my oldest. People think I'm weird.
Jealous of your 4 poster!

I like it a lot but it's really weird, the back is plain black. I almost sent it back but I like the front so much (and actually the back but it is like 2 different dresses) I decided it was a keeper.

Oh that's nice, how strange about the back being plain! You would have though it went all the way round. I do love their clothes though, although the price holds me back a tad .

I bought this recently and it's very beautiful: http://www.joebrowns.co.uk/sp+Breathtaking-Sheer-Top+LC457

Oh I couldn't sleep in a bra! But I don't have much that need supporting..

My jeans hardly ever get washed as I don't wear them much anymore and they go too tight afterwards and I have to sort of dance in to them.

I had an awful feeling I was going to get hit by a bus or something today as I'm wearing christmas pants. In my defence it's wash day, the rest of my outfit was nice and no-one was going to see them!

I'd love a four poster. My bed is lovely though, a proper wrought iron frame. Very handy for hanging bags off the corners

Well after finding out I didn't have a fine to pay on my library book I decided to use my No7 voucher and treat myself. I bought 'vivid violet' ail polish , its a start to introducing some colour.

My ebay stuff ends tonight so fingers crossed I win them :j.

On the washing piles - mines never seems to get any smaller. The baby goes through more clothes than me :rotfl:

Nikki yay nail polish I must paint my nails later!

I've just been plotting gardening with Dad, lol, we're going to grow the fruit as a father/daughter project.
This is a huge step for us, as we've never really been that close, but things have really changed lately and we're both making a huge effort

Very chatty again girls!
DB - you so deserve a nice surprise present, you're one of the lovliest people I know x

LIR - get the shoes, you know you want to!

Re patterns. I was kindly given a load of vintage patterns by a lovely lady on Freecycle. I need to get round to making some with my Mum next time I visit.

I hold my hands up to being very environmentally conscious when it comes to laundry, I rarely wear something once before washing it unless it's been in close contact with my armpits, or obviously undies! I relly on the "sniff test" quite a bit too lol!

Mariel

That's really pretty Claire, a good length too. I sometimes wish I liked to wear pale colours.

Good luck with the fruit DB I'm glad you and your dad are getting closer too, I'm very close to my dad as we're so similar.

Hmm vicki i'm not so much environmentally conscious.. it's more lazy on my part. I know people who wash things after every wear and they tend to fade and go out of shape.

I will be ebaying lots more stuff tomorrow. I'm clearing out my dad's spare room so even if things make 99p it's 100% profit. Seems a good way to go!

Tsbao, I'm just too busy/lazy/tried really, plus laundry is expensive and clothes don't last as long, lots of excuses!
I also admit to sponging off dirty areas, like if I've spilled something a bit, babywipes are brilliant for doing that!

I think obsessive laundry and washing is very over-rated lol!
