thevicster - love your nails - amazing colour!! I still haven't caught the damn mouse :mad: I have laid traps, so hoping it comes along soon. I hate not being able to sleep in my room
vivh & julie - the calls are on my mobile. It's always unknown number. When I had them last year a couple of times they forgot to withhold I think which is when oh called them. I'm going to see if I can get them to stop - otherwise I guess police it is. I don't really want to go through that though. Might just change the number from T-Mobile *sigh*. Didn't answer any of the calls last night (4) - couldn't be bothered to wake up and swear at them.
charlie - how did you apply for a job in the Czech Republic?? But probably the best idea not to take it
vivh - that's how I use girligo anyway. Maybe I've got it all wrong though
Dr_Roberto - shops aren't a problem for me - it's the online equivalent
Saw some lovely nail art stuff on Amazon. I might invest in swirling tools as I never quite get it right when using orange sticks (?)
QI once informed me its a myth that mice like cheese - so dont try baiting them with that...As I found out they seem to love chocolate so maybe try that?
Now idea how I applied for the job. I think it might have been when I was just searching for graduate jobs, litterally like searched that in google and just applied for ones I though I could do, but I swear it never said anything about being abroad....heyho
In regards to your stalker issue, what phone do you have? Is it one that can be connected to a computer? If so depending on the make, there is a programme you can install on your phone which can block selected numbers from calling or texting you, there is an option to block all with-held on it too. I did this to stop my ex calling me
If your interested in it let me know what phone you have and Ill find the programme compatible with it
Ive been trying to figure out since last night why my throat hurts so much - Are almonds nuts? Its something Ive never figured out lol, if they arnt then it must just be hayfever related but if so then I must be allergic to every kind of nut going (is that even possible?) I can't eat peanuts, cashews, walnuts, brazils, hazelnuts etc - anything like that otherwise my throat begins to swell.....I hope it is just hayfevery though because I LOVE toblerones so much :PMFW 2020 #111 Offset Balance £69,394.80/ £69,595.11

What's this? Do they take ANY bras? I've got loads that are too small but they're bright colours, from ann summers or superultrapaddedbringyourboobsuptoyourchin style:rotfl: Would they be ok? Or do they have to be basic bras?
This is the lot I send to: got to be better than throwing them away! I think they will take anything functional and clean.

"What Types Of Bra Can You Donate?
- Any style - but not too sexy or see through."
What's too sexy??:rotfl: not that I have any peephole bras or anything to send:rotfl: Just curious what "too" sexy would be?:rotfl::j0 -

Put one on and flash the milkman through the window. If he falls over, it's too sexy.
:rotfl:
I think they mean Anne Summers type stuff, rather than a bit of lace or silk.Some days, it's just not worth chewing through the leather straps....

My work computer blocked me looking at the bra appeal website!! What a shame - hope the IT department don't come down and tell me off now for trying to look at dogdy websites :rotfl:
Is it just me or has the Grabbit Board had nothing fun on it for ages?? I suppose it's helping my spending cutbacks, but still......Less stuff, more life, love, laughter and cats!
Even if I'm on the shopping threads, it doesn't mean I'm buying! Sometimes it's good to just look and then hit the CLOSE button!0 -
I have loads of Ann Summers ones, but they're more basic ann summers ones rather than ones to make the milkman fall over :rotfl: I guess if I send them anyway they can always get rid of anything unsuitable :j
:rotfl: Julies gonna get in troubleeeeee:rotfl:
I don't look at grabbit much at the moment, it's full of DTD stuff:j0 -

The Bra Appeal - Donate Your Unwanted Bra's
Don't throw your old bras away - Donate them to the BreastTalk.co.uk Bra Appeal! Send us your old bras and we can use them to generate cash for breast cancer research.
2011 marks our 5th birthday so a big thank you to everyone who has sent in bras over the last few years - keep them coming!
We raise money for breast cancer research by giving the bras we collect to BCR Global Textiles. BCR sell them to traders in third world countries to which helps support and supply their own local economy. This creates employment in poorer environments and allows the residents in these areas to make the choice as to what to purchase whilst creating viable local economy. When the bags of bras are collected from us they are returned to a sorting warehouse in West Bromwich and baled for export.
BCR Textiles pay £1 per kilo for bras collected and send a cheque directly to UK charity Breast Cancer Campaign. BreastTalk.co.uk does not handle any moneys raised nor do we take any admin fees - every penny is donated.
So far our bra appeal has helped raise £5686 and this total will keep rising thanks to you sending us your old bras.
Breast Cancer Campaign is a charity registered in England (Charity No. 299758) and a company limited by guarantee (Company No. 05074725) www.breastcancercampaign.org

Is it just me or has the Grabbit Board had nothing fun on it for ages?? I suppose it's helping my spending cutbacks, but still......I miss getting deliveries. I think I may have an unintentional in today. My sister called to tell me about this - I did say to her I already have soooo many (she knows this already too), but she said, I'm buying it for you anyway
So I guess I'll find out at 6pm!
But when I went online to look up what she was talking about, I saw this OMG - I so want them (if they're lovely matte type ones like the silver I have - not glitter ones)No buying unnecessary toiletries/makeup in May: Unnecessary spend £17.60
