    Oh daisy thanks for my post :)
    just got home, went to tea at my parents and then went to run friends' guides unit as she's at a funeral in Wales today :-/
    feel like i'm never home recently, although some of it's completely my own fault and best not admitted to!

    Having a guides related dilemma if anyone has an input..it's long tho..
    Basically my friend runs the unit I went to, in the village I lived in, my little sis goes to that one at present. I have helped out in the past there before taking over my own unit in a nearby village, since sept.
    I've taken my lot on camp and various trips etc, most of which my little sis (who I get on well with) has come with us on. She gets on really well with the girls of my unit, and doesn't really have anyone she's friends with in her original unit. So my dad suggested she start going to mine. Which she has, and seems very happy with. But she's also going to the other one still, not enjoying it or "fitting in" and Ive now found out neither she nor my mum have told my friend. Little sis says she doesn't really want to go to the original one anymore, but I'm annoyed because I'm the one who is going to end up having to let my friend know. Which is bad enough.

    However. Then there is the camp, which is a big event. Traditionally i've always gone on camp with my friend's unit as first aider, and I'd agreed that i'd go with he before I took on my unit, so the girls from mine are going with another local unit to them abd some of their parents so that's not a problem.
    Except that the other day, I spoke to my friend about this camp, who told me the only girl from her unit who was signed up to go to camp is my sis. With my friend and I, as leaders, and we'll camp with some other group they've camped with in the past.

    I guess I hav two issues. One that little sis isn't happy with the propsect of camping as the only one. And so she would prefer to go with my lot.
    And then the fact tht now that I find out she isn't taking a load of her own girls, does she really need me to go with her as an extra first aid leader, provided they have someone else who could cover first aid, it would prob make sense to camp with my own lot..?

    Ugh, I need to talk to her about it all, and feel like i'm going tk come across as having gone behind her back :(

    Morning,

    Lovely sunny day here. Going to wear my new peach H&M blouse for the 1st time today if I'm brave enough - it's a bit frilly and grannyish. I love it but am I brave enough to actually leave the house in it? :)

    Have got a problem in our tenement block. Every morning and every evening for about half an hour there's repeated loud banging that sounds like a door being slammed over and over again.

    Been going on for weeks and it's driving me mad! Don't know where it's coming from so think I'm going to have to be one of these people who puts notices up on the front door for all to see - oh dear.

    Love,

    Angry of Glasgow

    so outfit is uninspired, and hair is a mess:

    floral print sundress, primark with criss-cross straps effect at the back
    yellow cardi from yday
    IC flats in yellow/green with strawberries on, haven't worn these before (!) and they are hurting my feet a little at the moment :S

    Morning all, sunny today :)

    PF I would talk to your sister and your friend about it all - even say to them that you feel like you've got a bit stuck in the middle. I'm sure your friend would rather your sister was happy than still going to her unit out of worry about telling her. It's a pain having to be the one to sort it all out, but I think you'll feel better for bringing it all out in the open.

    I'm all stripy today - wearing grey dress (shock horror) with black and white houndstooth tights (which look stripy from a distance) and black and white spotty scarf (the spots are in rows so looks stripy too) :D.

    I love converse! I often spend the weekend in jeans, converse and a hoody - very comfortable :)

    Hope the dr makes you feel better PF - probably stress and a little run down from all you have going on at the moment.

    Boring outfit of:
    Grey skirt with white flower pattern
    black tights and flat pumps
    Black t-shirt and cardigan
    Various silver jewelry

    Morning Ladies

    PF, hopefully the doctors can help you this time! Re guides I would say that you, your sis and friend all need to sit down and all talk together. Im sure none of you want the other to be miserable.

    Dasiy, hope the appointment goes well.

    Today I have gone for a Chanel/Parisian inspired outfit(well my attempt at anyway!)

    Black pumps, Black jeans(rolled up a little), grey tshirt, nude cardigan with studded sleeves.
