    I'm actually quite liking working today. I always feel that days off during the week are better (and a bit naughtier, teehee).

    Well I've done a couple more birds, and having a go at a cupcake, and then thought I'd give some tea-party themed bits a go..

    Any chance of anything Mary Poppins related? *hopes*

    I kinda agree alex..I think that days off during the week are good because I always get much more done in terms of errands..can't stand Sundays with their stupid opening hours!

    Parasols would be great. Or chimneys although that could look a little odd! I love the city skylines in it.

    How about some Gladstone bags, spotty umbrellas, tea cups, pocket watches and Scottie dogs - all cute and iconic?

    Choccy - Love the new Beetles and the Fiat 500's are adorable! The Beetle's been sold (boo hoo)!

    thanks Daisy will have a look
  • Daisy Bella I was so gutted when I went, I was really in the mood for spending and browsing, had only been there about 10 minutes and my phone rang and I had to go back home for a meeting. I'm sure I must have missed lots of pretty things, will just have to wait till I'm back up that way with work.

    On the upside, the meeting was about Job Evaluation and the fact that they now accept that me an my colleague have been totally messed around and so have had our pay protected for a further 10 mths, now just need to get the appeal in or the new job description written.

    Off to morrisons now to get some stuff to make soup for tea, wearing (slouchy house cleaning day) Jeans, t-shirt and animal fleece.

    May have to wash my car too, looks rather neglected after going up and down the M5 lots last week:)
