Been busy (off topic sorry!) making this this evening http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=283732&id=576079456&l=ae25abb6f3 I'm so proud of myself
. Off to read back now.
That is absolutely GORGEOUS. :A :TWell done you! :TNo wonder you are as pleased as punch, I would be too!Erma Bombeck, American writer: "If I had my life to live over again... I would have burned the pink candle, sculptured like a rose, that melted in storage." Don't keep things 'for best' - that day never comes. Use them and enjoy them now.0 -
2 more UU's to report. ESPA Hydrating Cleansing Milk and ESPA Floral Spafresh Toner. Neither of them were anything special so wont buy again. Bought these when I did a beauty treatement at Espa last year and one of my weaknesses is that I find it hard to resist buying products after a professional facial. Next time I shall only bring enough cash with me to pay for the treatment to avoid temptation.
Off in to town in a minute to get some Euros for my ski holiday next weekend. Will bring some samples with me to use up then.
Have a nice weekend everyone.No toiletries challenge, started 18/1/2010 - Putting £1 in my savings jar for every item that I use up. Pot 1 to 4 = £261. Pot 5=£23
Boots points:£39.21. Extra money in 2012:£674.59. In 2013 £603.48. 2014: £85. 2015: £0 :j0 -

Kaz - that cover looks fab :Tsorry guys feel like i've deserted you for the tesco thread, man its all been happening over there!!!
I've given up trying to read all the posts on there!
To asset, mariella and anyone else who got vouchers well done,
pudsey B you made me laugh, i initially thought £26 pounds for a £50 spend thats no good! mine are usually around the same amount, well done!
LOL- well Tesco isnt my usual supermarket, so I made a special trip both times. First was just a trial effort for £8.94 and the last one turned out to be £49.46- would've been more except we picked up the wrong size of cornflakes!
Won't be going again for a few days though as I'm waiting for a part for my car - it broke down on Thursday and after being in the garage for two days it now wheezes like an old man!! It's driveable (says the man in the garage - I wouldnt risk it otherwise) but I'm only confident driving it local at low speeds
If they keep the promotion going - I'll get a couple more £20 vouchers once its fixed. :cool:
remember tesco vouchers have been capped at £20 now so don't go overboard and calculate before hand what DTD to expect
My favourite perfume of all time!!!!!!!!!!!:T:T:T
Unfortunately NOT one of my stash of 97 collected from lloyds!:(:(
LOL - so why the heck are you buying 97 perfumes that you like less than your favourite???????????????????
ps have invested another £20 at Mr T with a buy of an olay antiwrinkle day cream and 3 herbal essences £20 spend should give me a £20 DTD voucher!! Yipee, oops sorry (hangs head in shame)
Tut Tut Tut........(wants a wagging finger icon to insert here)your head should be touching the floor by now!!!

gorgeous cushion KazDo not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup0 -
Thanks for all the thoughts on turning 30 - it seems it might not be that bad after all! When are you 30 Sawan? Loving the sound of the Vitality Show - may have to go next year if I can. Thanks for al the kind wishes - Celebrate, I also believe that things happen for a reason and I think the fact I got an interview in the first place was a real boost!
My friend had his last day at work yesterdaySo we were out drinking from 1:30pm
I so rarely drink, so I am not feeling very well today :rotfl:Was fine until my friend started buying me tequila :rotfl:Had a nice chat with one of the customers at 1am though! :rotfl:

I need to colour my hair as my roots are showing but i've got a few hair colours on it which are at various stages of 'faded' i'd like to go back to something more natural and keep wondering about henna.
TIA for any help/tips/advice
I used to dye my hair with henna (the powder form) and really loved the colour - bit messy as has been said and a bit smelly and wearing a plastic bag on your had for a few hours is a bit annoying (I used to leave it on overnight) :rotfl:but a really nice colour! I did buy a block of the Lush henna, but gave it to Give and Make Up as the instructions seemed a bit overcomplicated for me :rotfl:especially as the powder form is so easy to use. Check if it's okay to use with other dye that might already on your hair at the moment though.The OPI Silver Shatter is going to be part of a Pirates of the Caribbean range due out in May. Do like the look of the red one posted above.
Sorry about the job vicster. Keep positive.
Think I'm going to try this when all my shower gels have gone (if it's not discontinued by then as I have loads to get through!). Recently tried the mango body butter and it was divine.
A few INs for me today : Avon order arrived. Am presently wearing Gunmetal nail lacquer (v. nice). Also got a tube of Spotlight shower gel (I thought it was body lotion when I ordered it - can't send it back when it was only 99p!), a gift set of lipglosses and a brown mascara (which I did NEED).
Two UUs - Finally the bottle of Sainsbury's Nail Lacquer Remover has gone. WNBA - am preferring the Cutex one I bought as a replacement. Also used up another (and the last) travel size of L'Occitane Verbena shampoo. WNBA. Much prefer Ojon.
Have a good weekend. x
Ooh! Pirates of the Caribbean range! Sounds good! Wonder what other colours they will have!
Fabby cushion Kaz! Beautiful fabric!
Right, gonna have a shower now to try and make myself feel a bit more human :rotfl::cool::oI want a perfect body, I want a perfect soul, I want you to notice when I'm not around[/SIZE][/FONT][/B]0
