    Well.. My wardrobe is empty. And about a quarter of my bed has little piles of clothes on. And the only biggish pile is hoodies. And there aren't many. They are just bulky.

    I need to go shopping. My work clothes have reduced to a dress, 2 tops and a pair of trousers, with one cardigan. And as soon as I have replacement trousers, these ones are going!

    Ali... :rotfl: :o am blushing! Thank you! And.. not on your nelly would I run the place. 70% of the income stream comes from one director. The rest is split between 4 other income generators. If he went.. we'd all go! Like dominoes. Good job he is heavily insured, like Taylor Swifts legs :rotfl:

    Thanks again everyone...

    INOD/DFW - Tact is relatively new on me. I don't use it much. I think I have just finally come to a place in my life where frankly I don't care enough about colleagues to get upset by their actions, or dwell on it. Only... ONLY when they threaten my bl00dy job with their petty crap.

    Jelly's new stuff is drying :) got plenty of ironing to do. Anyone give me any ideas for some decent work trousers? xx

    Need a back support belt? I think I saw some rather fetching ones last time I watched 'World's Strongest Man'...

    Have great, guilt-free FUN buying clothes! xx

    :rotfl: On my diary. Have I been taken over by Aliens.

    I just bought 2 black skirts, 3 white shirts, one teal shirt, one pair of black trousers. All for work. Still looking. Should probably start on stuff to wear when not at work. I've got about 2 tops and a air of jeans to wear currently after my cull :eek:

    Lilty - everyone has said it, but I will just repeat a huge well done and it is noninvasive more than you deserved. You are now a grown up!! It is strange that when you don.'to have any spare dosh or savings ere are a zillion things that you want, but when you can then buy something the urge disappears!! Have just been to Canterbreeee want to find something to travel on holiday and in my mind know what I want, something loose and comfortable as will be in the air a long time, but just can't find it.

    Had a treat today though, pre holiday, a body scrub so no feeling smooth and now wrapped up in my PM's feeling cosy.

    Enjoy your clothes shopping xxx

    Oooh BILLIE am jealous of Canterbree, body scrub, AND holiday! I might have bath when Jelly goes to sleep and try and pamper myself a bit My skin on my face feels like velcro at the minute. It is not nice :( and my skin has always been pretty much perfect all my life till I ate an artichoke :(

    Thanks again guys. Am still shopping, trying to get all the things I need. :) xx

    Will update with a total at the end ;) x

    LOL apple I meant pair! It does sound a bit naked. Thats how I feel after the giant clear out. Only one thing worthy of a charity shop. The rest... the bin. No mistake! :eek: xx

  • 'Air of genes' :rotfl: very breezy.

    Lilty, I bought some grape seed oil from MrTs the other day. It's really lovely on my skin. If that's a bit oily, my friend used to have a skin condition and was advised to use aqueous cream. You've probably tried both, but just in case....

    Sometimes you just need a rest as the skin is the largest organ of the body.

    I'm full of it tonight :rotfl: xxxxx
