    Morning all.

    Now I know diaries aren't really flavour of the month at the moment, but tough!

    I have weigh in tonight and I think I might have lost something! I'm very excited, I feel slimmer, which must be a good sign.

    Money is good, I have had the statement through from my store card so will call them later and pay it off, I've had the money is a savings account for 2 weeks waiting for this, so I am very excited.

    I'm doing good on my piggy points and had another 50 points add themselves to my total over night, so looking good for some vouchers for Christmas.

    But that's about it, I can't believe how quickly this week has gone, it's just flown by.

    Have fun x

    :T Well said:T Keep wiriting it! :j

    I am beating you with piggy points though:p I have nearly 25 pounds!

    I was going to use that for Xmas pressies along with the 11 pounds I have in my lightspeed account, although no idea what to use them on. I liked the idea of fruit vodka and I will be making that for my brothers OH as she loves vodka, just need to think of things to go with it:confused:

    Thats that hard bit. As I have said my friend and I are doing stockings for each other, so far she has:

    Sweet tude (like the M and M ones you get)
    Some mud face masks and some chocolate flavoured bath smellies.

    I'm going to use some of my piggypoints for a Blockbuster voucher and will pop some popcorn in as well. I'm also thinking of putting it all in a nice vanity case I have seen which she can then keep some make-up in.

    I am going to keep writing, people don't have to read it if they don't want to and I always check for newbie post and answer them when I can. So I feel justified to be honest!

  • I was a bit worried about giving vouchers from Pigsback as I wasnt sure how the vochers came, ie a proper smart looking gift voucher or a voucher you print off or.....

    Keep writing as it doesnt hurt anyone and you get something from and it other obviously wouldnt post on it or read unless we got something from it ....so she says with Lucy twisting her arm behind her back:D

    Me twist your arm.... Never!! :D

    Well they come by post and take about 2 weeks, so I would have thought that they we proper voucher type things. And if not OH and I can always use it :o

    I was also thinking of a Boots one and putting it towards some of their 3 for 2 gift sets.

  • Hi Lucy,

    The vouchers from Pigsback are just regular store gift vouchers, the Boots ones are very pretty design, but no gift envelopes, just a Pigsback compliments slip.

    Just had a very funny moment.

    Had a missed call on my mobile, so used the work phone to call it back.... it was LBM! 'Light Bulb Moment' I thought!!!! Blimey me we have a number!!

    No... They are marketing company O2 deal with, just trying to sell me a mobile.... how disappointing!

    Maybe.... Just a little bit.

    I've never bought a phone that way, call me old fashioned but I like to go into the shop, chat up the bloke that's selling me my new phone and see what freebies I can get!

    I did very well last time!
