London Socialite Sees The Light

Erme

Yeah I could comment but I'd probably get chucked off the board for being too graphic :rofl:...

Dosser sounds like a right derriere....what's wrong with her sewing together a camp blanket to keep herself warm and buying herself a wee pair of hiking socks out of her precious £64 or whatever it is. Sounds like she is getting housing benefit so what's the prob?

I don't work and yes I have the storage heaters on all day (cos there's no point in turning them off when you've paid for the leccy) but I switch the bedroom heater off :mad:

Anyhow..Miggy dearest ..have found my saddle bag - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/290642669613?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649#ht_2722wt_1374

Think it's big enough. Should have really gotten the 28cm wide one that finishes tomorrow but you know I won't go for that. The one I got was £20 short of a penny all in....didn't know ASOS did them this summer :mad:..I've have gotten one :mad: (and a big un at that)...

What's 25cm in inches anyhows? 10? the last one I got was 8 and I could barely fit half my brain cells in it....

She left this morning so we are back to normal now! She gave my FM a little box of toiletries to thank her for letting her stay but nothing for the flat to say thanks to us for the inconvenience or using all our stuff!!! Ah well, water under the bridge now. Lesson learnt - no more dossers! haha

Last night was fun, dossers friends were abandoned and we had a good time. Only spent £8.99 on a bottle of wine to drink during X factor and spent nothing at rugby club so came in under budget.

Just got back from another 12km round Regents Park, bit harder today as legs were protesting so I factored in some long power walks on the way back. The I popped into a shop and bought a present for my friend as an xmas/thank you gift for buying the Olympia tickets. That cost £14 but means I dont have to worry about buying her something on the day so I'll know exactly how much I have to spend.

Rest of the day will be chilling out and relaxing. FM is cooking me a nice lunch which is sweet of her and FM2's GF is cooking cupcakes after so I'm being well fed today!

Hope everyone is having an enjoyable Sunday

Forgot to tell you all about my weigh in! When dosser was weighing her suitcase I weighed myself and am under 10st for the first time in about 2 years! Ive lost over half a stone in the last few weeks since I started running regularly again! Well chuffed

bu88er just wrote all my thoughts and refreshed the page like an idiot so lost them all!

Had a nice relaxed afternoon snoozing and chatting to army boy, he's sent me something over for xmas he said so well excited to see what it is! I will have to get him something for when he arrives here as he will have left Kabul by the time it gets there now.

I have £32 left of my budget to last until 20th. Really looking forward to payday and getting my £10 a day back, I realised now it works well as I like having that tenner each day no matter what. I hate having to count the days until I get paid, that's when I used to just resort to credit... not anymore!

I'll do the banking tomorrow and fingers crossed I'll have a nice surprise... no idea what but I can hope right?! lol

FM reminded me tonight we agreed not to do xmas this year and to get bigger birthday presents instead so thats cool as I have a spare xmas present to start my xmas box with! this prompted me to decide to budget £10 a month into my separate account (currently £0) to plan ahead for presents and to have a mini buffer available so I can buy presents in advance as I see things people will like. I dont have a debit card for this account but its included on line so can just move money to and from it as I please.

I got a £7 refund from an ebay item I hadnt received ages ago, so I will transfer that into my current account too.

Wish I'd been good and ebayed today but I just zonked out after my run! Ill have a look at survey sites now...

Just popping in to say well done on the weight loss! That's really fantastic. You're making me want to run more now. :j

Thank you!! Glad I'm motivating you too, might need more motivation as it gets colder but fingers crossed not!

My god daughters Mum text earlier asking what I wanted for xmas so I asked for some of those running ear muffs with headphones, i currently look like an idiot running round in white fluffy ear muffs! :rotfl:
