    claire - if in July we both have beads that aren't the ones we like, we could swap some photos and bring some to the July meet in Bristol and see if we want to swap any IYSWIM? I'm just thinking I might have ones you would use.

    I signed up on the MFW thread. The DFW way of thinking is so powerful that having managed to clear our CCs I feel it is right to apply some of it to the long haul of mortgage OPs. Feels strange.

    Katsu, I am on the MFW trail and I can assure you it is totlly addictive. My mortgage is like a millstone and I just want rid of it, every little OP makes a big difference in the long term.

    Have just had a nice bath and put on my new fake tan. Fingers crossed I won't be orange tomorrow, otherwise I will need to rethink my choice of outfit.

    really....it's not hard to understand :T

    What kind of fake tan Suzy?

    Need some for my legs.
    Remind me what you are up to tomorrow?

    Yay Katsu, I'll get in touch with Luc through Facebook about July.

    Can I be really cheeky and buy the cordial off you then if you've still got it? If you don't want it hanging around till then that's fine.

    Shall I start a DFW meet thread?
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.

    Beanie....it's called Vita Liberata and I found it in Boots today. It's supposed to be smell-free (which is my main gripe with fake tan) and the version I've got is "perfect for even the palest skin tones....". We'll see :)

    ETA: I'm going to my niece's first communion tomorrow and am wearing a dress with bare legs.
