    Farmers market this morning though and then a wander round Cheshire Oaks outlet - we need coffee beans (from Whittards) and then I'll have to persuade O/H that we really do want to wander round all the clothes/shoes and make-up shops!

    Enjoy the weekend everyone :)

    Ooh is there a Whittards there? I must go! How shameful that I live so close and have never been (could say the same thing about Chester :o )
    Ugh fed up, just biked to town and now friend texts to say the guy she's msetig this eve is here earlier ie now so she can't meet. Annoyed cos I was lookig fwd to talking about all the things that are upsetting me. Meh.

    Oh how deeply annoying of her! The PM offer still stands :)
    wearing: jeans, gold nikes, grey knee length shift and huge cardi. Wedding ring and sunglasses. My dad asked if I were emulating a homeless person.

    Skin has broken out now with stressing. Been doing lots of ''what if'' scenarios and maths and I went to look at what I would have bought as my ''treat'' through the shop window (truly pathetic , eh?).

    DH and Dad are doing lots of moving stuff in the storage containers to try and fit more in...h'uh..I cn tell them thats a waste of time, however much you re pack, ''full'' is still ''full''!

    Sounds nice to me lost, nowt like a hobo! And how's that pathetic?? You should have bought it as a present to yourself for all the stress of this last week.

    You should definitely visit Cheshire Oaks! Go early, its great when its not busy but horrible when you have to fight your way through. Monsoon had an incredible sale on and I got two pairs of shoes, red courts and black wedges for £10!

    Chester is lovely for shopping, especially round Christmas time with the market and everywhere lit up, looking pretty. It does have a few boutique type shops left, although it is mainly typical high street shops - they're even getting a Primark now!

    LiR - you should have bought your treat! What stopped you?!

    PR - unfair of your friend to do that at the last minute :(

    Hope you're having fun with your grandparents DB and Vicky, I hope Dylan all better soon.

    Money! I'm enytering a new MSE-extraordinaire phase in life I think. Ther is going to be nothing to spare. No money for clothes and treats at all! But ...the pay off might be worth it. Just....the transition is difficult.:o

    Hmm. Just home now, not a morning to bike anywhere!
    Now packing my camp stuff (camping in the rain!) and I'm so tired I could actually have a nap, which I never do. And I don't hav time for one anyway!

    Alex I'll pm you with my Ramblings at some point I should think..there's a lot of background Ill haveto explain so it may take me a while to lol

    And I don't mind about my friend, she's meeting up with the guy for the first time in yr's as he lives far away and she's been stressing about it for wk's now..so I'm happy for her really bur they'd thought he was getting to town later.

    Camping in the rain is one of my most favourite things ever. Ok, so I can do without struggling to pitch the tent whilst getting soaked, but lying all snuggled up whilst the rain thrums on the roof of the tent is such a wonderful sound and feeling.

    I think nothing is a perfectly acceptable answer. I sat and read many books in front of a log fire on my birthday.

    Hmm, well I have a couple of weeks to consider but I should think nothing will be done.,
