Oops I have a few of those but in my defence they are well written ones the author is an Irish child protection worker so it interested me given that I want to study social work....thats my excuse and Im sticking to it lol

I'm up for a book club. I need to get my blog sorted first, oh dear.

Right, I went downstairs to see a massive package of my (p)leather jacket and tshirt from Tesco in the porch. The porch was locked, they didn't knock, no-one else has a key and i'm so confused as to how on earth it could have got through the letterbox?! Oh well, i'm very pleased. Thank you to those who MADE me buy it.

I'm running late and still have lots to do. ahhh

I'm shattered and have to go back out soon, things we didn't get done earlier because I was too tired.
I did get a mini loaf tin tray (makes six mini cakes) in Lidl for £3.99 though, I'd seen it advertised and I wanted it but didn't think they'd have any left by the time Mum and I went over there as we don't go every week.
Charity shops were rubbish but c'est la vie.

Tsabo, yay for Tesco stuff being good.

Afternoon, lovelies!

Well it started off being a nice day but it's raining now, grrrr! Just when I'd planned to sort out my window boxes.
Had a lovely mooch round town getting friends' birthday pressies, last minute holiday sun cream and a few bargain treats for myself (two vintage bags, two pairs of platform shoes and an outrageous fake fur 1960's cap).

A couple of my eBay purchases have arrived today (chiffon maxi and floral waistcoat) and they are perfect. Just one more thing to arrive - the one thing I'm most excited about!

Today's outfit:
White dress with blue, green and orange flowers (Jumble sale)
Cobalt blue tights
Cobalt blue shoe boots (TopShop)
Emerald green leather gloves (Car Boot)
Cropped green jacket (Car boot)
Electric blue perspex huge chain necklace (Oxfam)
Leather Gladstone bag (Jumble sale)
Racket-shaped earrings threadded with orange and green thread (India)

I've lost count of the number of people who stopped me today to compliment me on my outfit so feeling extra-specially smiley.

Oh dammit, why are there no Lidl's anywhere near me? That sounds ace. Will have to send the parentals out on a hunt for it.

I want my Tesco stuff to arrive

Another book lover here, I'll try anything once but not overly keen on horror and wouldn't touch a celeb autobiography with a bargepole (especially a sleb under 30!).

As a true-life story I did quite enjoy "A Piece of Cake" by Cupcake Brown.
