Morning all. KC sounds like you have a really nice day planned there. Happy haircut
Thanks!

(evil smiley) to Man U fans getting stuck on the motorway! Ok I am a Liverpool supporter I am allowed to be evil to Man U fans ..... but only in so far as it is humorous banter.

Oh definitely! I don't think I'll be evil to his face while the match is actually on, but either side, and half time .... ha! Is all I can say :D:D

I do Taxi, thanks, I just dont really want to get it started, lol - too lazy! Mind you, I must eat something before I go out. At least I've had the bath, and got rid of the product on my hair, so I can go into my cheapie hairdresser with a clear conscience.

The idea of cheering on Man U goes entirely against the grain - can't bring myself to do it. But not particularly keen on City either. But as a Liverpool supporter, my heart will be with them at Arsenal tomorrow.

I entirely understand Bit awkward with Arsenal tho - the family is now quite southern, and some of them support Arsenal :eek:

Completely agree.

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: Norty Cheri!

Well, my poor partner had a bad time of it in the end, didn't he! Tho even he agreed that Paul Scholes had to be sent off after we saw the slo-mo ....

Anyway, nice takeaway, nice Stella, I got a lift to the station and a train came along *5* mins later, when we hadn't checked - I love it when the universe looks after me like that :j

Today, I have to do the hair dyeing, if I'm going to do it at all :eek: - apparently you go for it on a strand first - and I also need to try some hair product.... when i got my hair trimmed yesterday, my fringe became bigger, and straight across, and it just looks *weird* on me - I'm sort of too old to look like that, and I've always had a looser, more layered type fringe .... product might help

Some clearing in the garden is called for, and my new green website is also calling me - I've been arranging the info I've been saving from shows and whatnot, and its fascinating to see how it takes shape and progresses because of the info I have .... that doesn't feel like work at all, I love this stage of a project. And I was really careful yesterday going round the shops not to spend any money on files or anything - I might have to spend a pound or so for some new folders from a poundshop, but thats it... must be good :money:

I'm a sucker for office stationery . Sounds like someone was looking after you yesterday!

I dont bother with the strand test as I have an all over colour which this time is very red :eek:. I like red though, if I go brown it changes my whole personality to "boring"- no offence to anyone who's hair is brown, its just me :rotfl:

So true ... I nearly caved a couple of times, but I managed it - and I've found a dozen used folders here at home, and just put a new label on them - it would be a bit hypocritical to do anything else, when its a green website I'm working on!

No offence taken! When I was in my 20s, I had a strong tint of chestnut naturally - now, the underlying layer is just dark brown, thats all - but thats a damn sight better than bright grey :rotfl:

It did, Taxi, it did - not doing too badly today either, tho I'm not rushing or anything, not doing anything I don't want to do .... I've watered the plantpots, I'm currently in the middle of the strand test for my hair dye, had a little walk, done the green papers up into folders (almost), thats about it really.

I've always had problems with 'blonde' type hair colours as they have a lot of red in them, and my natural colour is 'mouse' which has a lot of red in it.
I used to have my hair done by my cousin, a hairdresser, and she decided to add some copper to my hair for 'lift' - after 5 minutes she checked it and the look of horror on her face was a picture!

Do you remember someone called Phyllis in Corrie from years ago? She used to have purple hair? Well imagine her with red :eek: it was bright red, and although my cousin said it suited my skin tone, it deffo didn't suit my personality. I'd have to have a lifestyle and wardrobe change to carry it off.

Since then I've stuck to wash in wash out colours!

You seem to be getting loads done.

I love stationery, I have to resist buying packets of pencils and folders.

The answer to the universe, you see. With brown(ish) hair, I look 42 if you don't look at the neck and the arms :D:D

I had no idea how much this would affect me - it was h*ll's own job to do, mind, I should've brushed my hair upside down before I put the stuff on. And I suspect its a wee bit patchy at the back but next week, I'm off to the big health food store in the next town that sells Herbatint, which is organic - with all the skin cancer in my family, I'm not using ordinary hair dye *regularly*. And this will be regular, make no mistake :D:D

I'm a very, very happy camper, I surprised myself by having a tiny little sniffle at one stage
