  • Just seen the most amazing bag EVER!

    I love bags & I love Harry Potter.

    It is a Harry Potter book bag!

    https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/261343658/harry-potter-leather-book-bag-the?ref=shop_home_active_35

    So expensive but it would last me forever.

    Need to start scrimping & saving.

    Will treat myself to this next year.

    That is gorgeous !! I sooo want one of those. (BIG HP fan here as well)

    I have seen some others on Etsy where they have made the bags from the shell of the HP hardback books. I keep saying i'm going to get one for myself but i have so many HP things that i can't really justify it at moment.

  • I know, go DH ;)

    I am sooooooooooooooooooo tired this morning.

    There is some OT available in work right now so going to take up some of that so that I can get paid an extra weeks wages in December :money:

    If I get paid time & a half that means I need to work 25 hours to get paid for 37.5.

    Plan is to do this all by 11 November 2016 so that it comes through at the end of that month.

    Will be super tired but it will be worth it.

  • Oh also forgot to add that I am expecting another 100.00 from Nationwide tomorrow for switching my main bills account over to them, really hoping it all goes through I need that money to pay for my Christmas shopping!

  • Fivebyfive - it is the best bag I have ever seen! Love love love it.

    I have one already but its so limited to what you can fit it in & it only cost me 12.99 so don't feel bad that I am getting a new one.

    Thistle - Thanks!

  • To get paid for a full weeks wages I need to work 25 hours to get paid for 37.5.

    0 hours worked :(
    25 hours still to work :(
    14 hours scheduled to work :)
    4 hours requested to work :p
    7 hours to make up somewhere ;)

    These hours are not really guaranteed as they can be pulled at any time, really hoping that doesn't happen could be doing with this money to survive the festivities :rotfl:
