  • Birdie - you make me laugh so much. You are hilarious. You and your OH sound like such a fun couple!

    Wendz - I'm sure your Mum and Dad will be delighted to see you and Poppy. I always find a baby is great for cheering people up in times of sadness. What was the baby on Lorraine for? I was watching it but had to put on a reindeer DVD for Max so missed out on that slot. Am currently watching Waybuloo and the baby is fast asleep. It's nice to get a chance to sit down for a few minutes every now and again!

    Wish I had one of those "Space Blankets". But they are £25 on IWOOT and I can't justify it. And cause its over the spending limit for christmas the wife can't use this as a get out of jail free card for christmas. Not that she would. Shes good at buying gifts.
    This was 6 months out of date so I've changed it.

    CMD, I don't know about us being a fun couple, more like plain bloody stupid! :D

    Haha, you made me laugh too Birdie!!

    All work and no play for me today. 1000 new words to write on 'material interaction'. Much less difficult than the theory section I tackled for the last 10 days. I don't know even why I wrote that theory bit now, I am almost sure it was completely unnecessary. I am sure my supervisors will agree :o

    There's a White Stuff code £10 no min spend on Discount Codes board. Of course there was a the *perfect* pair of slippers for my sister but they're oos. Happy hunting anyway ladies :)

    Birdie, that story was brilliant :D

    Thanks for the codes, have pretty much finished Christmas shopping I think but OH's sister loves the White Stuff so might have a quick peek at that.

  • Birdie - that sounds like something I'd do! :P Plus me and my BF are stupid too - it's the only way to be in a relationship I think!

    Happy Friday! :j

    This week has been so long, I'm super glad it's the weekend, and I've been paid! :j

    It's dress-down day at work and since no-one on my little team had Pudsey spots to wear we decided to come in dressed in holiday clothes, so we're wearing bright Hawaiian print dresses with leis and flowers in our hair! :D

    Anyone got nice weekend plans? We're going Christmas shopping on Sunday, we're treating ourselves to Thai for lunch and I may talk him into going to see Arthur Christmas... although it could be too early for that :o OH's playing Rugby tomorrow so my afternoon will be spent watching movies, making Christmas cards and wrapping little advent pressies! I'm feeling very Festive right now... may be the mince pie I've just eaten; we've started a very serious mince pie tasting club at work, with a spreadsheet for scores and everything! :)
