    The socks are sorted, about half had to be thrown cos of holes and missing their friends. But I found my robot socks and my monkey socks, and sorted my undies drawer, so that's all funkydory. You could have grilled sausage and bacon with some scrambled egg

    I could, but that would use almost all my points for that one meal and I like to eat little and often. Correction....I like to eat LOTS and often, which is probably why I am doing WW in the first place :D

    Off to the shops in a bit to buy some food to keep her quiet for the next few days.

    Oh, and to buy some acrylics/brushes for me coz I'm attempting my first painting at art class on Monday eve.

    DHL used to drive me mad at the shop. Several times on a saturday they'd leave a card saying books has been delivered to the bakery across the road at 6.30am. Couldn't understand that not many shops open that early and I then had to carry huge boxes across the main road.

    Eccles cakes were lush. Made mince pies too. :o

    Suzy, like me then! Get some good quality brushes and they will last your for years (a little more epxensive but so MSE) and acrylic paints are pretty much the same, regarldess of the price.

    Hmm, do i sort out my tops drawer and see if there's any I can pop on ebay?

  • :eek: I come home and all hell has broken lose :rotfl:

    Bookie, you didn't put your foot in it, you just asked Hug_by_Abfc.gif

    As Ten pointed out it was just a small line stating when I would recieve my next doll. Unless you knew what the numbers ment it could mean anything. Yet a troll decided to pm me about it and basically rip me to pieces. It wasn't about the doll it was about the reason behind it (weightloss) and how I was achiveing it. I sent it straight to abuse and removed it from my sig... However that wasn't the end of it :o ....

    Anyway didn't you have a signature that said something about doing what you wanted to do despite what other people said - I know it was nothing like that but the sentiment was the same?

    Yes I did and then this was picked up my the same troll and someone else :( Both pm's again reported and the line in the sig removed. Yes they have won to a degree, but the fact they are bothered about it obviously means that they are no doubt jealous of what I say/am doing so its thier loss really.

    And that's the end of that... It (the doll thing) may end up in there this afternoon as I have a few things to add to my sig :j

    Are they the Japanesey dolls that she was trying to find the rare one of and someone found it for her online? Cos they're really cute and really lovely. Stupid people.

    Elf that one didn't arrive. They said they had problems with Google checkout and he was taking ages to get back to me. He hasn't replyed to me since the beggining of Feb, and google checkout still hasn't charged me so I am still on the hunt :rotfl:

    Afternoon everyone.

    Have got new washing line up in garden - it is very loooong so I've had to use my two clothes props on the one line, meaning I have no props left for line 2 :( I got my props for £2.99 each in Morrisons last year and I've just looked online to see that in B&Q they are nealry £10 each and £8 in Argos.

    Oh how I hope Morrisons still sells them in green.

    I'm finding not spending money really hard this month. Having bought OH a new car we are quite stretched and I find myself thinking "shall I go look for clothes props in Morrisons? I could go to the car wash on the way, and get fuel... but can I really afford to spend money?"

    We need to stay debt free so I need to stay ontop of my urge to shop - which is v hard today :(
