    Happy Birthday MOAMHSHappyBirthdayBalloons.gif

    Seafarer's that is a beautiful bag...and someone's jealous;). I have just won a new (unwanted xmas gift) bag on fleabay so I'm chuffed!

    Been working *kerching* hence absence. Mind you it shows!

    Anyway, happy news for me, the silver earring I lost some time ago has been discovered in my underwear drawer - must've caught on something. There are also 5 bars of soap in there, scenting my smalls...think it's time to get them used up!

    I always keep my stash of soap in my underwear drawer.... or should I call it my drawers drawer:D

    Anyways, the reason I'm back at a time when I should be either down the pub or playing Skyrim is to tell you of something Mr LW found whilst surfing the net.

    Just in case your house is all clean but you still want to Fly.....

    I don't buy lots of them, but I've been wanting that one since last jan so now it's in the sale can justify it. I get a couple of new ones each year as I collect them but usually the ones I like are NEVER in the sale.


    I'm sure I've seen a bag like that before....

  • Lol JoJo, I was planning on wearing all black when I use the bag (as bens pram is also red) but now I've GOT to get purple trousers n a jumper as that look is just wow :p
  • OH has constructed new PC - wow - it's silent!

    Not certain about the widescreen though......

    Been to see warhorse with DD1 - decluttered many tears - but it is very good! Seen in an afternoon audience of mostly pensioners (cheap on Thurs with free coffee and biscuit) - this meant that it was one of the best behaved cinema audiences I've been in for ages and DD1 and I got out quicker than most of them so we got to the ladies first!

    Not much flying done but tomorrow is another day!
