Woo - lots going on with you! Loved the pics on FB - that dress looked superb on and your hair looked fab! Lucky you being out and not seeing the farce that the Ullevi GP turned into live - it was an absolute joke - although credit to Noddy & Greg for getting to grips with the track so well.

We watched the GP this morning, I got a nice surprise when I looked on the betting site, as I had totally forgotten I had put £2 EW on Chris!!
My dress was so pretty and my hairdresser did a fab job of my hair!
With WW there is a monthly set allocation for expenses for meetings all added in - whole package looks pretty good to be honest. I start officially on 29th

I think LW did something similar with the Betting as she won as well! Good thing too - it'll cover the cost of the hotel room she & Hays had booked before the BSPA trampled all over our planned Northern Tour next weekend. :mad:

Hi everyone
I have had a lovely NSD day
I bought the professional edition of Office 2010 last month as I only had a trial on my netbook and got it quite cheap (£37.89) due to getting it from a student software site.
I needed to download somethings from my WW area manager today and couldn't do it on my laptop as it needed Microsoft Publisher and the netbook wasn't set up for my printer, so I went looking again and realised after looking on amazon for just the publisher part of office that the edition of Office 2010 I had bought does 2 computers!!!:j SO job done, Office 2010 now on both computers and usable
In WW news I have accepted another permenant meeting starting on Wednesday 1st June at 7pmI have also spoken to my boss at work and she is going to put me on a 430pm finish each Wednesday from work to allow me to get to the meeting
No other news just lots of WW stuff to be getting on with!

I have spent a bit of money on different bits and pieces. I sent my stamper back this week as the details on it were wrong and I ordered a date stamper as well. I finally got the Royal Wedding photo's sorted for work and took them in today, should get the money back for those!
Also had my niece's 1st birthday yesterday which was fab and we are out on Saturday for a little party for her too.
Oh and Payday tomorrow!! :j:j
Tuesday's spends
£8.64 Date Stamper
