    This is my outfit for tonight. I am NOT going with the white contact lenses :eek:

    I have between shoulder and middle of my back length hair, which is very fine and won't tolerate lots of back combing.

    Any ideas please folks?

    There is a clip on YouTube, how to get messy hair no back combing, that might give you some ideas :)
    I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it. :)

    Weight loss 3 stone :D

    The only thing I can think of QoC is gel to make it stick out at all angles:o

    It's probably too late to find a hat to wear. I was thinking a top hat might go ok and leave your hair untouched which would be nice when you wake up in the morning:)

  • Good choice I love the Cotswolds too. KL is beautiful but a bit limited at filling in a whole weekend there once you've been as often as you and I have. We looked at the room prices for the Sun Inn the other day :eek::eek::eek:
    The rooms were lovely but :eek::eek::eek:

    Some times Whoop Hall comes in groupon/wowcher type offers :)

    Morning all. Thanks for the supportive comments yesterday. I'm still feeling aggrieved at the injustice of it, but determined to make some good come of it, but personally and professionally. It just shows how unbothered I am about the job itself as I'm mostly annoyed about leaving a box of tissues and some food in the work fridge :o

    I want the house to look as good as possible in time for Christmas, and also so that DH is ready and able to start his business next year without DIY hanging over him. Now I'm home full-time for the immediate future, there's no excuses! The garden will also be sorted properly before winter sets in, and not left until spring for once :D The large bush in the garden has already felt the consequences of my stress-relieving shearing :rotfl:

    In the mean time, I'll need to think carefully about meal planning and not wasting money and petrol, so any food/clothing/present purchases will need to be properly thought through and collected all at once to save fuel, as there's only a small Co-op within walking distance. I'll also be sending positive vibes to the coupon fairy for as many useful coupons as possible!

    Pleased to hear you sounding so positive Arthien. We elite can make our money go a long way:T:T

    I know it's stuff you already know but remember to bulk out your meat with tasty vegetables/ lentils beans etc to double up your volume. Then freeze half to use another day.....it's healthier too.
    Be creative and work around what you have in your store cupboard...search recipes to find new ways of cooking what you have.
    Beans on toast is always a nutritious stand by meal. I could go on and on but it would bore the pants off you:rotfl:

    Good luck:T:T:T

    Zeek won't let me use the Halloween code as I've already used 2 in the last 24 hours.....so that one will wait until later.

    I need to dip into the Nectar bonus points at some point .......think I'll give hampy's hand cream a try and even Ted Baker for Christmas gifts:T

    Catch you later peeps:)

    Tempting, but it is rather a long way, we would be grabbing the free samples... and getting banned... lol.

    I am going with OH to a house show in Harrogate next weekend.... I think it would be more fun with the Elite ladies x

    Yes, it would.:D
