I only wear fitflops and fitflop boots - I kid you not!

:eek: I hope you wear a bit more than that when you leave the house

It's sunny here, but trying to rain. Shouldn't complain, the last few veg plants in the garden could do with a good watering

Had a long e-mail from DH this morning, and he's promised to ring soon :T

Going to find a list, and once I've spoken to DH, get out into the garden, as I fear we are in for lots of rain tomorrow.

Might I enquire which boots you have from this range?

I'm looking for a new pair and nearly caved in to some uggs. Now having a rethink and I wiuld like a pair that are good for my arkward fitting right foot and a pair that last well too with heavy wear

Morning all,

Not been around this week, as luckily I've had 4 full days of supply Tuesday to Friday, although my voice is suffering for it now. Will have to try not to talk too much when I meet up with my friend and her baby this afternoon.

Have caught up with Fred, and it seems lots of hugs are needed all round! So, for everyone, have one of these:



Well I'm off to shower and get dressed and then I'll be off to town to have breakfast at Starbucks, then meet my friend, before doing the food shop on the way home.

I had a phonecall on my answermachine on Tuesday to say that my wedding dress has finally arrived, and have arranged to have my first fitting next Sunday (26th). I'm a bit nervous as I'm sure I've put on weight, which I'm determined to lose again by the wedding, but don't want to have to have too many alterations, as obviously they will charge for them. Fingers crossed that I've toned up a bit by next weekend - working should help with this as I won't be sat at home eating, and will be on my feet all day.

House is still looking reasonable, but will give it a good clean tomorrow when Moon is out shooting.

Thinking of you all,

Well we did
There is something very annoying about putting on the WM with the sun shining and hanging out the washing watching the black clouds building.

Followed by a quick sprint outside when you realise the rain has started :rotfl:
