Thankyou Roxy, have finally made my mind up and ordered the brown. Now off to order a big fat petticoat from ebay to go under it

I figure I can wear it to a couple of the events and can always sell it on again on ebay if I need to, that should recover pretty much all of the cost of it as they seem pretty popular dresses on there

My ebay items have finished now, only two of them sold, one was a magazine freebie that went for £3.20 :T the other was the £10 sale item that went for £21 :T so thats £24 towards the dress, which cost me £38 including postage (thanks Roxy for the code :T), the petticoat will be about £17 from ebay, so about £30ish to find altogether

Next it will be the shoes / wrap dilemma :rotfl: I'm guessing nude shoes should be ok but will check when it arrives, may need to find some darker ones.

I really must step away from ebay, I've just bought a pair of shoes to go with the dress, they were a bargain and were £8 inc. postage, and they haven't been worn :T

No more spending tonight!!

please-let-me-be-lucky

Glad you have decided and :j to the money off code

Morning all, its a very wet one here and we're supposed to be going to a sporting open day at a local outdoor water centre Hmm, will call my friend and see if they're still going ...

Other than that today I need to find the passport photos I had done of ds, I cannot think what I've done with them, haven't seen them for ages. I put them in my purse when we had them done and have probably put them somewhere 'safe' :cool: but I can't remember where

Kittikins

Oooh, hate those 'safe' places, they're the Bermuda Triangle of any house.....

DD's cold and snotty and so is watching Beauty and the Beast for the gazillionth time and I'm thinking of dragging her out so I can buy a bike...gulp...

We went to the open day and it was fab, ds had a go at rowing and sailing in the harbour and learnt to skim stones too Spends = £2 for activities, £5.30 for car park :eek: and £4 for 2 x hot chocolates to warm up. Lots of fun all round though

I also found the passport photos so they can now be sorted out and sent off :T

Ds homework is done without too much protesting :j :j I can now enjoy the rest of the bank holiday afternoon

benbenandme

Woohoo, I just won £54 on a games offer :beer: That means it can pay for the rest of my dress and the shoes I ordered, and will still leave me with £16 to go into the mortgage pot
