Just been watching the news - its shocking isn't it? How do people justify doing that? Amazing.

Yip, awful My friend lives near the Debenhams in Clapham - she sounded pretty shook up when I spoke to her last night.

Hi everyone.
Well done OrangeFairy and welcome HollowTree.
I've been a bit distracted this morning and have done lots of unplanned things. Have pulled out the dogs kennel (worse than a teenagers bedroom!), bed covers have been washed and are on the line. Dogs house bed covers are in the washing machine and I have 4 new duvets waiting to go in them. (works out cheaper to buy smart price duvets and throw them out every few months than big dog beds which don't fit in washing machine!
I also got a bit carried away taking cuttings of plants, both house and garden. Have potted/cuttings done from christmas cacti, african violets, spider plants, strawberries and lavender plants. Now need to find homes for them all. Even if only half of them take i'm going to be giving away loads to friends soon!
Still to do today:
Bath dogs, always a fun job, they are generally quite good actually:D
Clean bathroom after above!
Clean out washing machine after washing beds (machine cleaner from pound shop)
Treat myself to a chocolate cosmos plant, local garden centre have some for £3.99, have wanted one since last year but couldn't find any seeds. Saw them yesterday and slept on it but still want one!
Mr A to buy beer for weekend (off to a large motorbike rally, taking own will be cheaper than buying there). Also bacon and bread rolls!
Lunch of last nights leftover homemade curry.
List a couple of bits on Ebay (say this every day, really need to actually do it).
College work, same as Ebay!

Have a good day everyone.

Hello everyone,

Today I am feeling very grateful for my lot considering what's happening in other cities, can't believe the greed & selfishness of so many people!

DNMS - Well done on the wardrobe declutter - sounds fab! I need to get my butt into gear & do that...
Stitchy - Hope you manage to stick it out a little longer, if you do I'm sure you'll be flying in no time
Welshwoofer - I completely agree!
HollowTree - Welcome
OrangeFairy - Well done!!! :beer:
La escocesa - Hope your friend is ok, I saw pictures of that on the news & it must have been even more awful to see it happening on your doorstep!

Does anyone know where Candy is? I hope she's ok, bit worried I've upset her & I really didn't mean too

Hi everyone,

Thanks DNMS for starting the thread, and well done Orange Fairy - I did AAT2 last year and am looking into starting level 3 soonish - how have you found it?

Today I have:
Checked banks
Transferred 50p from TCB to bank account - still no more cashback coming into my account though!
Bought lunch from work - a colleague paid for half of it though and I went for the cheapest option, which unfortunately was chips - but they were bleddy 'ansom!
Received £6 Love to Shop vouchers
Updated my spends spreadsheet
Carshared to work
Rescheduled my massage/mani/pedi birthday present so I can combine two trips into one.

I will:
Finish my friend's leaving present - I had a voucher for a free photobook so am scanning in photos of our many escapades together! Only 8 pages left to fill!
Freeze some more basil, starting to get overrun with it now, not sure what to do with it!
Not spend any more money!

Hope everyone's ok and no one is affected by the rioting - absolutely horrible

Kx
