i am thinking of doing a diary soon - my pay has run out at work and hubbie has hardly any work so our finances are rather restricted - thinking about it and may do one very soon to keep me motivated.

Looks like its on for tonight, I just text him asking if he is still free for tonight then could we make it a localer town than the one we originally said and he replied almost instantly saying yeah sure ... so I guess that means its on, although still no idea about time or where lol ... he is sooo phone-phobicMortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000

Morning
Well last night was a good night, and has helped clear up whats what a bit too. We were both absolutely hammered, in fact I got to the point where I thought I was going to be sick
(wasn't though
), when it was his turn to buy drinks he was getting doubles each time, no idea how much I drank but it was a lot for me.
Anyway, nothing happened and its clear nothing is likely to happen, but I did come away feeling like this is turning into a decent friendship, so am really happy with thatI got home at about 12.45 this morning and am amazed my head is clear this morning :j I spent stupid amounts of money last night, probably around £50-£60, but I go out so rarely that I don't care

Glad you had a good time and no hangover too:). I can hardly drink anything now without being ill so usually have to stick to 2 glasses of wine or 3 and thats it. Hopefully you will get to see him again soon.0

I hope so, we talked about him popping round here after school one day, he drives psat my house to get home. Not sure when yet as he will be doing different stuff when he goes back to work, and he will be uber busy this term as its the end of his course. I reckon it could easily be a couple of months til I see him again, who knows? But that's cool, we'll see how it goes. I texted him when I got home last night to saty thanks for a great night etc, and he replied saying he'd had a good night too and see you soonMortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000

No hangover - how do you manage that?!!:rotfl:
I'd be curled up feeling very sorry for myself, no chance of doing anything all day when I've been out drinking (or even at home drinking;)).
Glad you had a fun night out and a great week away:)I really need to sort out a new signature!0 -
I've no idea how I managed it this time Pixie, I couldn't even face drinking some water when I got in, I felt so rough I went straight to sleep but woke up fine
Just done the food shopping, now to visit Dad then collect monster from Mums, then home for some ironing and ebaying before getting ready for school again tomorrowMortgage Total: £50,720/ £75,000
