    OMG OMG OMG OMG LAKELAND HAVE OPENED A SHOP IN MEADOWHALL!

    My fiRst EVER visit to a real life lakeland shop...:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

    I was overawed and came out with...






    a lakeland catalogue

    oh dear. I admire your restraint, but Meadowhall is only about 40 minutes for me and I have no such self control. And a £5 off voucher :o. I think Hotel Chocolat are there too....

    Well, it took pretty much all day but I got there in the end! I took another pic for you but H nicked my phone to play games. Needless to say DDs room does not look the same anymore and I will KILL her if it gets out of hand again.

    Would not have done it if it weren't for this thread, so thanks you lot! My first full list in two weeks, probably won't do a whole one again for another two weeks but I do feel better and hopefully next week won't be so bad. Going to carry on with the days I didn't manage over the weekend.

    Sleep tight everyone!

    I know, I haven't been on the list for two weeks but I've been flying. Got the PM a few weeks ago and I still have it.

    Edit: Just looked at 18th and 25th October and I'm not there even though I'm sure I took part...
    Willow the mistake was mine and I apologise for not putting you on the list - i was a little pre-occupied this last couple of weeks.

    HAVE I MISSED ANYONE ELSE - PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF I HAVE.

    It will be nice to snuggle under my duvet tonight! I will be out in the morning but will see you all later tomorrow - have a good weekend everyone.

    love and hugs

    Peace will be mine

    Nah you're not :p, erm well yes, that is/was the plan seeing as its a trifle muckytastic at Triker towers. I'll be slow and steady though, not got much choice.

    So Queen of the longest lists :eek:, what exactly are your plans, mmm?:rotfl:Actually forgot to ring her to see if sh got over the flu. Ooopsy.
