  • Hey,

    Thanks for all the replies. It is annoying, but luckily the one I didn't have a receipt for was the £1, not the £10 one. I suppose that's postage karma coming to bite me! :p I'll just refund the £1 tonight. The other person is adamant to open a dispute, so I'll let him! :p

    When starnac said that one of missymoo81's goals could be to have a baby, I thought it was a strange goal. I didn't realise you were pregnant! This is how little of the diaries I have read! :p

  • Dinah/NIM - Since I hijacked your thread to talk about my two favourite subjects (food and me :p) I thought I'd ask a question about your DF journey

    The student loan you are paying back, is it an English one? If so, how do you work out how much interest and what the monthly payment is? I've used the calculator on here, so I know my DFD (April 2016!), but I'd like to see what the snowball affect is.

    Have you got a spreadsheet or something that I could nick? :D

    Anyway after figuring out they have been discontinued by UK stockists, I found some patterns to make them. I haven't even made my pencilcase yet :rotfl: Let alone learned to knit!

    I'm just them same. I love 50's circle skirts and have patterns that I bought off eBay (before my LBM moment!) and I don't know how to turn on the sewing machine, let alone know what to do with the patterns!

    My mum bought one of those old school sewing machines (you know the ones with the push pedal and is usually on a cast iron frame which is RIDICULOUSLY heavy to carry?!) which needs fixing. I'm trying to convince her to get it fixed now, rather than in the new year so I can have some new year outfits! :D

    Hello everyone and hello lurkers!

    Had a lovely birthday and have been spoilt, lots of money and vouchers so going to treat myself :).

    Had a nice takeaway last night that my mum got for us. Today we went into London and had a look round harrods and i bought Poppy a 1st Christmas bauble. We also had a look round Peter Jones in Sloane square and had some lunch. Been really tired today as struggled to sleep last night.

    Just been rushing around doing a bit of tidying and cleaning as have got friends coming over tomorrow and we are going for lunch.

    So glad you got spoiled Wendz and some money to treat yourself :) Buying Poppy a Christmas bauble is very sweet, what a nice tradition to start. Hope you have a great time tomorrow.

    Glad to hear I'm not the only one getting overexcited on the craft projects Greenie :D Going to put my knitted pouf on Day Zero. Only one gap left on my Day Zero list :)
