I went to Abakahan and got lots of goodies Browsing in crafty/fabric shops always cheers me up and this was no exception.

It was a fab shopping trip actually - got an amazing Edinburgh Woollen Mills pleated skirt/kilt in shades of brown and taupe and cream and a Tulchan jumper from the Red Cross charity shop and then went to Debenhams to use that free £5 voucher. I found some fab Jasper Conran over the knee grey cableknit cashmere socks and they scanned through the till at £2!! For cashmere socks!!! Am v. pleased.

Today i'm so frustrated, i took a day off so i could come spend some time with a friedn as she has the week off as well, and she text me this morning to say she's got too much to do at home We had made plans for dinner last night and she was too tired for that in the end.
Super glad i wasted the time off, am now sitting around on my own wishing i was at work
Think il pop out for a wander round the charity shops.
