    Morning!:D

    According to Ten Years Younger last nite - the hairdresser said that curls & "Perms" were back in fashion this season !! so after we've all tried to get dead straight hair we've now got to go the other way!:rolleyes:

    Funny how we all seem to do the same things together isnt it? Im going for my haircut tomorrow too (at long last!) along with DD (Miss Rats tails!):rotfl:


    God isnt it lovely to see the sunshine this morning!

    kyle - well done on the weight loss - are you following a particular diet? or just cutting out stuff?

    Shez - Nope not a diet as such, mum has always said it is healthy eating and regular exercise that loses the weight, so have given up sweets and chocs, although have a treat now and again:rolleyes:

    Reducing my portion sizes, and if i snack between it is healthy food, this is the longest i have been doing this in years, am surprised at myself! dh is doing it with me for moral support, my incentive is florida though:D

    Lo is busy fighting with the hoover at mo:rotfl: he gets in a right temper LOL

    Yay I did it :j :j :j

    I am off to see Take That in November.

    It took 2 hours and 37 mins of *constant* redialling on the phone and reloading webpages. You would think I had nothing else to be doing :rolleyes:

    Oooo, I saw Take That *first time round* (c. 1994?) & they were fab! Well done for being so patient Skystar.

    HQ hair outlet (or similar) has got ghds for about £80, plus it's a pigsback site, so you can get points for purchases made through their website.

    Why are none of us are ever happy with our hair? When it's long mine is wavy, so I have to do lots to it to get it either nicely curly or dead straight, but it's nice to have the option I suppose...... Now it's quite short & much easier to handle, although I do get the straighteners on it from time to time.

    Right, time for a spot of lunch............

    Does anyone else get in a bad mood when you have simpletons knocking at your door when your busy? Just had this woman banging on my front door,thought it was some kind of emergency the way she was banging.So I open the door and she stood there and asked me "If I was fit and healthy would I want to live forever?" !!!!!! I mean what sort of question is that to ask a complete stranger,let alone knock on peoples doors to ask it.She didn`t even say hello,I`m Blah Blah from wherever and could you spare a couple of minutes to answer a question.

    Are these sort of people fruitloops?

    I`ve have now just had some asian bloke on the phone wanting details about my income and whether I have a mortgage so I can get a consolidating loan out.Had to tell him four times that I am not prepared to disscus my finances over the phone,or any other details for that matter.But as usual he still babbled on about doing this quote for me and in the end I had to say goodbye and put the phone down.

    I had my 35th birthday yesterday and now I feel like a moany old grump!Didn`t think I be like this till I was at least 50.

    Moan over!
