    Snow just started here, I have no staff at all today (one on leave and one on training), got in early and got one of the 6 covered parking spaces in work so no digging out for me (if I can get out).

    Brown cord jeans again, timberlands again, olive and sand striped polo shirt, olive crew neck fleece,

    In a bag in my car I have a pink long sleeved rugby top, joggers, t-shirt, boxers, socks, towel, shower gel, jus tin case I get stuck again.

  • mornign all, hope the snow stays at a minimum for you, Douglas!!
    Alex, I'm sure you won't look a show at all, you're very organised, and i can't wait for the xmas do outfit post :D
    (i forgot to photograph mine on tue, and managed to get my shoe boots rather muddy, as i slipped on one of the muddy steps on the bridge coming home ;( grrrrr!! )

    outfit today:
    black satin shift style dress with lace neckline detail, newlife centre £5.99
    white chiffon bird print shirt, new look (which my little sis insisted i purchase at the weekend with my vouchers)
    strand of pearls, ??
    cream glitter ballet pumps, tesco

    i feel a cross between a total mess, and dressed for a waitressing job, but i wore heels all day yday and my feet are aching, after a 13hr day mainly on my feet and a stupidly long walk home ;(
  • I like the bird print PF, it's really cute. I'm sure you don't really look like a mess/waitress too :p
    misread shirt as skirt first but I think it would look really nice on a skirt too!
    I just searched their site and they have an adorable birdy bra... but it's the young teen range :(

    Alex I'm feeling very inspired by your sweetie making recipes, they sound great. Might have a go at fudge this xmas, been meaning to try for ages. No sugar thermometer here but I might buy one. And also I LOVE treacle toffee - not enough of em in the mixed bag i got the other day and way too many of the icky licorice ones.

    Just over 24 hours until I'm done with uni for xmas :D But i should get back to work unless i want to spend the whole of those 24 hours awake :eek:

    I am so bad at remembering to post here! Today I'm wearing an outfit totally from Mum's wardrobe haha.
    It consists of skinny jeans and a zebra print jumper dress, both from Next.

    Yay :) I don't think sugar thermometers are that expensive and they're so useful.

    I've just had my holiday form signed off - am off work from 21st December to 10th January. Woo hoo!!
