my tent is a cath kidston floral one..i like to stand out..new DC doesn't know this yet, but she has known me for yrs, so i'm sure she'll be expecting somehting like that lol..

We got sniffed at last time we camped for having a pirate theme. I thought we all looked quite stylish with bandanas on and inflatable parrots on our shoulders! :rotfl:

i got to meet all the other leaders from the district at last night's meeting (who all turned up in their full uniforms for a meeting at someone's house!) and i could feel the disapproval reigning down on me!! :S

Anyone watching the fashion bit of This Morning? Do people pay £28 for tights?! If I did that I know I'd ladder them within an hour.

Hi everyone!

Not wearing red today I'm afraid - being a redhead I dont actually own anything red! (ooh actually, my socks have red stripes in them - does that count?!)

Just got ohme and had to get changed - OH had his occupational health appt this morning and I looked quite smart today... then I spilled my cereal down my jumper! and discovered my feet were soaking!

I went out wearing:
Black vest top (Dorothy Perkins, £3.50 with NHS discount)
Teal long jumper (Matalan sale, £9)
Black jersey bootleg trousers (Simply Be)
Pink and black socks with teddy bear print (£1.50, Primark)
Black glittery ballet pumps (£20, Evans)

Silver ring from Avon, other silver ring from HPJ., perfume Just Pink from Next.

Now wearing:
Still wearing the vest top and trousers, but have changed the other stuff for:
White t-shirt with grey and pink sparkly Tatty Teddy print with 'Shopaholic' slogan (this is ancient but I think I bought it in New Look in Nottingham for about £12 - when I lived in Notts!! ages ago)
Dark blue fleece Leicester Tigers players hoodie (£34.99, Cotton Traders shop yesterday - have wanted one of these for ages! And its so comfy )
Blue, white and red striped socks (Primark, £1.50)
and will wear my trainers when I go out to work.

Hope everyones having a good day! xx

Not watching it, but eek, I could never pay £28 for tights. I dont think I've ever paid more than £6 and felt sick at the thought of that! I think most of my pairs cost between 50p and £1!
