    Hi
    Im fine thanks, oh new abode :j:j I hope you are settled and will be very happy there:D
    I still need to look at my accounts really as got some money coming i need to put away this month:T:T
    No glitching :eek::eek::eek: get your bum back here and get going girl:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    :rotfl:

    Well I'm currently doing GP....so no more on-calls (unless I choose to do locums - think I'll pass on that lol).

    Which means I'll have the bank holiday days off too. :j

    And lots of MSEing in between clinics. :rotfl:

    If you've got the money coming in this month then I'd start planning now.

    Depending on the amount...you may need to open more than 1 current account....just don't open too many like I've done. My postman must think I'm a drugs dealer.

    I now have 10 current accounts, 10 cheque books and 10 debit cards.

    Good Lord. That sounds scary. You've given me the willies talking about that many cards and accounts! I struggle with my bank card and credit card. How do you manage lovey?

    Anyway I am going to try and drag myself out in the garden to do some work- 72 tiny plants arrived from Thompson and Morgan yesterday plus 2 dozen silvery things I already had, very tedious job of potting everything up, no idea where I am going to put anything and no labels so the colour scheme is going to be in the lalp of the gods.

    My other crisis is just as bad.

    Ive been using Olay total effects touch of max Factor foundation medium spf 15 - they were very cheap in Home Bargains once so I got several and this is the last one. Also Max Factor ageless elixir 2 in 1 foundation serum natural 50 spf 15 (won from supersavyme).

    Both have lasted me months and months and both now have run out at the same time :mad:

    So Ive got some tinted moisturisers for normal usage when for at home days eg Osirir Avise BB cream a;; in one SPF 15 from poundland but the coverage is not good.
    Also a few samples of Estee lauder Double wear.

    So ive got to try and find a replacement of some sort with good coverage, SPF, anti ageing but not too cloying but still give good flawless coverage.
    In theory I could just bite the bullet and get estee lauder double wear and it would last me months - but I've never bought any make up so expensive - my skin is so decrepit now I really cant warrant going out bare faced or just with a tinted moisturiser.

    so in the meantime I have to go and trawl through my make up stash to see exactly what foundation I do have but we are away in a few weeks and my collection of odd samples and sachets probably wont last that long :(

    Any suggestions please?

    Oh dear lol I'm sure your skins not that bad. I use different ones £1 shop and the Est!e Lauder samples. Have they given you some in a small bottle, they last ages. I begrudge paying ridiculous prices when you don't know if they will work or not. I'm waiting for the sun to tan my face then I won't be wearing any.
