    Mmm, Gem sounds lovely. Didn't find them in my store though, will have to keep a look out :D

    So room is done, woo hoo. As promised there are pictures below, they are one side of the room, but the main side. The opposite is my headboard, a window and bedside table. Sorry they are in odd angles but its hard to photograph a room that is only 2.4m square :rotfl: The brown round bed is the cats and its ontop of another chest of drawers the same as the same as the big ones only 2 drawers.

    Spends are going well, spent £3.50 on two graze boxes (new year offer) £1.70 on two drinks, £1 on some new dog bags and 50p on dog treats = £6.70 :eek: Thats shocking!

    Back to work tommorow, had an awful dream last night so I am dreading it. Ahh well as long as I get through the first 4 hours I will be fine :T

    But sometimes you need to buy food & drink & you have to buy bits & bobs for the dog(though I do hope that your b contributes to that)

    How lovely to see you back here Pap, so many changes and you do sound happy.

    Hope you dont mind me popping in every now and again.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.
  • Beanie, to be honest its not worth the bother. I don't spend that much on the dog as Mum covers food etc. TBH lil B doesn't have much money but thats due to his choices :o

    Hi Lou, you are welcome by anytime. Yes I am happy, happier than I have ever been, don't get me wrong there are things in my life I would love to change but just now I know I can't. I am no longer going to dwel on things, life is too short :D
