    P.S. Have you tried looking good naked?

    :rotfl: :rotfl: There's not a cats chance in hell that ANYTHING would make me look good naked. I watched Trinny & Suzannah last night and I was thinking I have NO good bots to accentuate so they'd just give me a very long, very big sack :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Our storm started during Gordon wotshisface and went on till about 3 am - I didn't think that was possible!

    Fudge cake sounds spot on!

    Anyone fancy being my body double (what an insult!) and going to a special needs governer meeting after school - I have never been held back so long after school as I have being a mum!


    I'll be your body double and go to your meeting if you will be my hair double and go to the hairdressers for me after school.
    I hate having my hair done. I'd rather go to the dentist. :eek:
    I'd just got myself psyched-up to go last Wednesday and they cancelled the appointment because their boiler had broken down and they had no hot water. I've had a whole week to worry about it.
    Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times and I'll smash your face in. :D

    Click on 'user cp', then on 'edit options' (on the list on the left hand side), then part way down (in the middle) on the 'display options' box, make sure 'show avatars' is ticked.

    Just going to double check this is correct...hold on.....!

    Edit - it's correct now!

    OOOOH i love having my hair done its like a big treat i love being pampered.

    On my money saving mission i am going to buy myself a hair dye kit as my hair is now much shorter than it used to be and has no highlights in it.

    This will be my first time at attempting this and to be honest im crapping myself at the thought - the only thing keeping me going is the thought of saving myself around about £40. I might as well give it a go that money is better in my pocket than the hairdressers. I know i wont achieve the same after effect as they do blow it nice and straighten & style it better but needs must and i really cant afford it done.

    Ohhhh I'm so glad to hear someone else say that - I hate going to the hairdressers.. so much that I've cut my own for the last year! Saves me a bit of money anyway, but it's mainly cos I get so nervous and stressed about going :o Don't think it looks too bad, nobody's ever pointed and laughed, even had a couple of people saying 'I like your haircut!' :D

    OMG confession time my hair has not been cut for about a year! I sound a right grebb now lol - I would have been proud of that in my teenage years!

    OK I will go to hairdressers - but later in the year you have to go to opticians for me because I really hate that - have this eternal fear I will come out with jam jar bottom lenses.

    What a look grebb hair and jam jar bottom glasses!

    Pocoyo is a cute little fella my hubby is fascinated with the programme I just run off and do a job without a 2 year olds "help"
