Ooh stitchy which sewing school did you go to?? i made myself a lovely pick and white corset with a fab Swarovski zip for DD's christening. i still love it and wear it now.

I go to one in Ashby de la Zouch. I don't think we can mention names on here, but it's easy enough to find on a search engine!

I now have ten finished corsets which I wear, five waiting to be finished and a few in different sizes as samples for other people to try on

Afternoon everyone.

Its been a busy day. So far I have:

Not gotten dressed as I am dying for a fancy costa coffee and dont want to spend £3 on a hot drink!
Bought my car insurance for the year through quidco for £28 cb that takes it to £230 less than my previous insurance company were trying to get me to pay!
Tonight I'll be watching the rugby round friends so we can have a cheaper time then down the pub.
Occupied myself by packing up stuff as I'm moving in a months time and distracting myself from the thought of a lovely costa coffee

I'm trying to be so good :A

Morning -its absolutely lashing it down in Manchester:(
Just back from taking the dogs out and they're both soaking wet and filthy, just had to rehoover downstairs to get rid of all the bits they brought back with them.
Both dogs sulking now because they're wet.:rotfl::rotfl:

Not a lot planned for today....

• Write 4 lessons for school
• Write a revision exercise for school
• Make tea nice using fresh stuff up from the fridge
• Watch rugby this afternoon
• Try to find domething to wear on Friday night so I don't have to buy something new - its a dressing up job
• Wash kitchen floor
• Walk dogs again - hopefully it'll stop raining at some point
• Do a load of washing if the stuff washed yesterday ever dries
• Maybe do some marking (not urgent)

That's about it - will have to find something else to do as I'm not good at sitting down doing nothing:)
Have a good day!

Good morning:hello::hello:
No rain here Welshy - we have sun...for now! I set my alarm today, was up at 8.20...I hate getting up, could have slept til 10, but once I'm up I feel very good:p

So, I have one washing on and another load to go in after. I need to nip to Argos today to pick up something for my sis and go to T's for cakes to take to work as it was my bday. I also need a doormat as I washed ours on a 60deg wash yesertday and all the rubber backing disintegrated:eek: What a mess...like confetti everywhere.
So, here's my list:

• check banking
• check Onepoll
• meal from plan tonight - girls eating at ex-mil's so just freezer excitement for me;)
• washing on airer - some outside maybe?
• finish assignment - just the reference list to do:j
• start next assignment
• get bag ready for back-to-work:(
• rubbish and recycling out
• hoover lounge

Have just eaten dd's leftover sausage sarnie for me brekkie - see, that's mse, saved making myself one:T
