    From the way he was talking he loves it out there, the people are really friendly and it looks like he's on a movie set as all the houses have verandas. It looks like something out of To Kill A Mockingbird :)

    Arghhhhh so close to £3k AND 35%!! can I squeeze any more money from anywhere to push it over :o


    Thank you all for your lovely messages yesterday, as you might have noticed, im in a much more positive state of mind :D It makes me laugh, because in real life im the most miserable and anti social person you'll ever meet :rotfl:

    In true *me* style, im having a bad day and decide im going to do a totally unnecessary spendathon . . . the entire purchase being . . . . a box of hair dye :rotfl:. Even in my state of temper I cannot break my natural habits of not spending :rotfl::rotfl:. SO have been walking round since 8pm last night with hair dye on my arm :o and have had absolutely no reaction so am now getting impatient :o 48 hrs I have to wait :eek::eek: DO these companies not know me at all?? Made a slight error with the test swab, chucked it in the loo after using it and have woken up this morning to a bright red splodge in the bowl where its hit the side before falling in the water :o

    Also have made roughly £70 on ebay so once I have had feedback I will be removing it from paypal and paying it off my card :T:T:T

    Oooh someone who actually does the test patch :P I get wrong at work (I work with chemicals and my company makes dyes) because I never ever do the test patch. In the 10 years I've dyed my hair many different colours I've never done it and never had a reaction other than leaving it on too long and staining my scalp :P One day I'll get caught out I just know it, and I'll end up with an orange head or something silly :rotfl:

    Wish we could hurry up this house moving stuff so I can sort out all my money and then get saving. Already have a target for one thing as well, I was a Newcastle United season ticket for the coming season and I want to pay for it up front so I need £600 saved before they go on sale :D

    I'd like everyone to think I was really good, but in honesty this is the first time ive ever done a test patch :rotfl:. Im not sure im going to make 48 hrs though :eek: I can see the bottle coming out tonight tbh. Im surprised I havent had a reaction actually as every time ive dyed my hair before I get a burning sensation while its on my hair until I wash it out, but I usually do blonde so im wondering whether its because this is an auburn colour :think:

    I couldn't face another salad for my lunch today so was just going to buy a sandwich BUT I ran back in the house and got a tin of spaghetti shapes (I don't like beans), 2 slices of bread and some butter. Nice warm meal for lunch and it's cost about 50p!
