    Oh that's just great isn't it ~ I'm a bully for pointing out certain posts are mean and b!tchy??

    I've pointed that out twice, that's all. I would have called it, lets see....constructive critisism, not bullying.

    Bit better than the venom spewed on here by Laura last night though?

    And thanks floss, a mindless moron is one I haven't been called before.

    OK, maybe I haven't totally caught up & read the last 3 day's worth of posts...but I didn't expect it to be any of the regulars, just someone like iamanalias doing her usual not-so-nice posting.

    Sorry shellsuit, i didn't mean to call you a mindless moron.....i didn't read the stuff beforehand :o

    Don't know what I've missed but I think the stress may be getting to a few of the ladies. please calm down girls, we're all going through the same thing.

    Can I make the mood a little more lighthearted??

    Pics to follow soon but I really have to tell somebody this!! Last week I had one hell of a performance over a dress I was bidding on on Ebay. The seller said they couldn't acccept paypal because it was acting up for them but I couldn't pay any other way. After contacting Ebay customer support I was told to retract my bid. I sent a very nice message to the seller explaining why I'd retracted and said if they could get paypal working for them then I'd bid again. I'd bid £30 with a highest bid of £60. The seller then contacted me saying paypal was sorted and they'd changed it to buy it now for me, with a cost of £60 including P and P.

    The dress arrived about an hour ago and I just can't believe it. The seller kept telling me I'd love the dress but love is the wrong word for it..... IT'S ABSOLUTELY STUNNINGLY GORGEOUS! The pictures didn't do it justice. It's been cleaned, is in immaculate condition and is just so perfect I doubt I'd have been able to have one made that's as wonderful.

    I'm sorry to say I've done Linda out of a job (she was going to make one for me. Will still need alterations though) but I am so thrilled with this dress, I had to tell someone!!!!!!! OMG, I'm nearly crying!!! Too late, am crying!

    OH can have his new mountain bike now. I am past caring. I have my dream gown for a bargain price of £60!!
    Yaaay, I finally conned a man into making a honest woman of me. Even more shocking is that I can put the words "Happily" and "Married" into the same sentence and not have life insurance on my mind when I say it ;-)

    I only know how to do it through photobucket. I'm up for hints on how to do it an easier way!
