  • Boys are funny things! :mad:

    Having a quiet sunday today... I may have gone shopping...naughty me. But I only spent £10 on a dress in the sale so it could be worse! :rotfl:

    I have training for my new job tomorrow so I've got that nervous excitement feeling going on. May explain why I dont feel very well. We're having our photos taken too and typically Ive woken up with the world's largest spot on my chin! I swear my skin was much better when I was a teenager!

    I'm watcing a programme on baby animals at the mo, baby pandas and rhinos are so cute! I want one!:D

    aww Pencakes.....hugs.


    The date? ....... His loss.... at least it wasn't a wasted evening as it could have been worse if you had spent money going out just for it to be a waste of time

    The spot? ....... A little bit of toothpaste on it will sort it out.


    Viewings............ fingers crossed!

  • So much for the Irish bloke! :o Well, as unixgirluk says - his loss!!

    Toothpaste work? Used to use that myself actually. It does work wonders!!!

    Well done too on the bargain dress you found! ;)

  • Hello all!

    Sorry for the lack of posting, I started my new job this week so there's been lots of training and getting stuck in! The week has flown by so that must be a good sign!

    Ive found a new place to live too so Ive spent my evenings packing my stuff up!

    Its all go in the world of Pencakes!

    The spot is almost gone now but I mist remember the toothpaste trick as I have another one growing! Grr! :mad:

    Not heard anything from the Irish man since last weekend's no show. But I'm glad in a way because Ive met someone a lot better! Anyone who read my old diary will know I am a big big F1 fan and the new guy on the scene is (without giving too much away) is pretty well connected to all that so he's like my dream man! :D

    We're off out tonight...I suppose its a date, but we already know each other so its better I think...I just never thought in a million years he would fancy me!:rotfl:

    So so excited!

    Im moving tomorrow but will post on Sunday with all the goss!

    Hope everyone else is ok? I will have a little nosey of people's diaries later :D

    And hi LoopyLou!

  • Very annoying, I just wrote a really long post and then my PC crashed so I lost it all!:mad:

    Its very quiet in the office today so I thought I'd have a sneaky peek on here!

    My move went well, although it makes me realise how much stuff I have that I really dont need or use! Ebay session needed methinks! My new housemates are lovely, they've made a real effort to get me involved and the boys even made me a curry last night :D

    My date was amazing! The night went by really quickly and we got on like we'd been friends for years which is ideal. Plus he looked ridiculously hot which helped! :rotfl:Ive never dated such a muscly man before! Date number 2 is on Friday. I can't wait!

    Hopefully now my life is settling down a bit more I can update my diary more often :)

    I need to update my signature soon too! Hopefully I will be sub £7k by the new year!

    Hope everyone is ok xx

  • Another slooooow day in the office. Im very tired today too, my new room is in the attic and the radiator doesnt work. I woke up in the middle of the night freezing! I need one of those fluffy onsies from christmas! Texting the new squeeze till the wee hours is probably not the best idea either! But so worth it. :happyhear

    I keep forgetting to send myself my spreadsheet so I can work out what my new debt total is for this month. Its not going to be a great deal less because I had to take a payment holiday on my loan because of all the house moving Ive done. :mad: Hopefully by next month everything will be settled down and I can start doing the PADs as well. My new job pays me an extra £144 a month so I'm planning on putting all of that to repaying off the debt and bringing my DFD forward. :j
