    that must have been a nice one beanie.

    I'm tempted to get a new radley as I had one before which I used for several years and still managed to get £5 for on ebay. I sold it as I'd treated myself to a lovely yellow leather purse made by some random brand which is falling apart 2 years later.

    Luc, afraid baby pink is just not me. I used to adore pink but then I had colour analysis done and have been converted to "my colours" for everything. Might sound a bit crazy but honestly it has transformed my image and was so, so, so worth every penny of the £90 it cost me. I've now got a wardrobe of mostly sale and charity shop bargains, can get dressed in 5 mins in the morning and love 99% of my clothes.

    I've got a purse I got in TK Maxx. I then found a car holder thing (not big enough for mine) in there for 70p. I need one of those big old lady purses with all my cards and stuff.

    And I did go to the pub, started feeling pants (like I was going to pass out) so I came home and now I feel a bit better. Still loving my Dr Who boxset though, if they're still cheap soon I might get series 4.

    Elfen,

    Did you see the £12.99 audio CD set of DR who stories from the telegraph? You can buy them online - I've just ordered for my OH.
