I love the way our minds work! Well yes if you are talking about having kiddliwinks then marriage certainly can't be far off! I hope it happens soon for you, I will get so excited I might pee myself :rotfl:. I keep wondering if there could be a specific time that OH might deem suitable for proposing but he is just so laid back about the future that I dare say he gives it any thought. He is the sort of person who could walk into town to buy some lunch, go past a jewellers, see a ring and buy it - as random as that!
I didn't get up till 11.30am this morning :eek:. Did feel tired yesterday though so must have needed the sleep. So far have done my 2 free scratchies for a whole 20p but I am over £15 now :T. Have totally fallen out of love with Lightspeed, I keep getting emails for surveys so thought I would do a couple but they are so long and for such a small amount of points. I know I should think about the bigger picture but the one this morning was so in depth and took so long that I forgot to bid on a game for OH's birthday on Ebay :mad:. Have found another one ending tonight and put a bid on it thankfully.
Quidco is tracking 2 of my free money offers and I am going to do another one later. Once I have finsihed posting on everyones diaries I am going to stick another load of washing on, wash the kitchen floor and start some revision. Also just about to tell OH that he is colouring my hair today(he doesn' know it yet), I have hair dye already stashed and my greys are starting to really show. He has done it before for me and did a pretty good job so I think that's his job to thank me for doing copious amounts of housework yesterday.

Babies as well???!?!?!?!?!??!?!?! :eek: Hmm, I might have to miss *that* part of the diaries as I am 65% sure that there will be no more for me...can I get a dog and pretend?
Mind you girls, no harm in practising is there?Free entertainment and all that....VERY MSE :rotfl:
Have washed the floor but decided not to do the 2nd lot of washing as there was only a diddy load and it isn't worth using the washing powder/electric. Have just taken off hot pink nail polish ready for the green but first things first - revision!!!Am going through all the questions in the revision text just doing bullet points. Am aiming for 20 questions today, will see how it goes :A

Hi Kavics! havent spoke to u in ages! ur doing great on the savings now hun!!
We are also thinking of having a baby next year so we cud all be pregnant at the same time! Baby talk!
Without highjacking ur thread J, our wedding is 4 different colours, Red, A deepish pink, orange and yellow (the colours of the Gerbera flowers we are having). Each of my bridesmaids and best man and ushers will be a different colour. dresses for the girls and cravats with black suits for the guys. thin line between tacky and classy but i think i have the balance just perfect!
How nice has this afternoon been! just got bk from southend airshow! xxxCurrent Mortgage balance - £363,785.35/£420,000 (highest point Oct 2022).0 -

:rotfl:. Thanks Hun, we're doing extremely well, I'm really pleased, Keza's challenge helped though:D. Let's hope we can carry on like this...
Yes, practising is very MSE:D. We will need to create our own thread for babies, so many of us gathered together:D.
Hope revision went well, we had a lazy day, OH still has man flu so only went for a walk and I went to the gym. I hope he'll get better by tmrw, I'm getting fed up of being careful what I'm saying:D.0 -

It's blinking windy here!! You aren't hi jacking at all, we LURVEEEE wedding talk on hereI do especially as I get to talk about weddings without OH thinking I am hinting. Those colours sound absolutely fab, I have always tried to keep to a max of three colours - don't know why, probably an inground thing for my mum but I can totally that see that combo working. Have you got your dress yet? What's it like? Sit down meal? Come orrrrnnnnnn I need more input (said in Johnny 5 style - I hope someone knows what I am talking about!)

Off to read diaries xx
Oh my days, I did 3.5 hours and my hand hurts. Only did 7 questions but re read and noted a whole two chapters on contract law which is almost 100% certain to come up so I am happier now that I can answer almost any question on it. Going to do some questions tomorrow then try and do another two chapters. The exam is 10 questions with each question being worth 10 marks. This has its advantages as if you get a question you aren't too good on you can make it up elsewhere but on the flip side you need to know a hell of a lot. The pass mark is 50% so you would think most people would pass but according to statistics from last year only 42% of students passed it :eek:
I didn't realise you were going on holiday Choc, musta missed that somewhere in my pea sized brain! Where ya off to?
OH is just about to dish dinner up, Roast Gammon with pigs in blankets....not sure if we have enough Pig in our dinner :rotfl:. He also went to Tesco earlier and put £180 on table in front of me, he says £150 for lights and shopping money, so so kind of him but I still feel horrid. It's all going down in the note book and i WILL pay him back one day.
No further on the list, after dinner it will be hair and nail varnish time so I shall catch up with you all once I'm looking more beautiful
