    Loathe hairdressers ! Always feel totally out of comfort zone.


    Exactly - I've resigned myself to being disgraceful , no hair cut for over a year or two and that was only in an attempt to keep DD happy and keep her company.

    Now I've opted for wearing platts occassionally lopping bits off - :D my hair is a random red/not quite red/not brown/not blonde type thing - colouring it is a nightmare but I endeavour to make an ar*e of it every time I forget its a stupid colour and try.

    Ta for the welcome - :)

    You all sound v busy :)

    I died mine blue once! :eek: was barely noticeable for a few days then ended up going a kind of turquoisey-grey for about 6 weeks. I was 16 :rotfl:

    Sounds like you've found a good hairdresser there:T

    Evening All,

    Well, I am back from the Proms suitably entertained and worn out. I have to say that I thoroughly enjoyed myself and I am proud to say that I came back with some money left from my budgeted spends and I am not quite sure how. I think OH sneaked some into my purse.
    Arrived back late last night and spent the night catching up on MGs thread as I couldnt sleep. My friends stayed over today and have just headed off home. Moo is quite content, he has been spoiled rotten and what is worse is he now believes he should be allowed into the living room and on the sofa!!!!!!!
    I have tomorrow off work and then back at it on Wednesday although that will be difficult as I have no computer or blackberry due to an upgrade taking place in work and they havent TNTd them back to me. Mmmmmm wonder if that means that I can have some paid time off!

    I need to check my bank account and move some money around tomorrow, pay a few bills and work out where I am up to.

    I had a phone call this afternoon from Virgin CC offering me a 0% deal which is great but I couldnt speak to them so I am hoping that when I call them tomorrow they will still hold it open for me which will mean that I can move the MINT card over and then I have everything on 0%. Fingers crossed ladies.

    Hope that you are all well.

    Fay, that makes me think of Pippy longstockings and makes me like you even more.
    Oops now I am showing my age.

    Now that sounds quite cheap to me. Where do you live, I might invade.

    Enjoy your day off !
    I really think Fay is Pippi, I don't think she was ever fictional and we have the real thing amongst us.
