    I know what you mean about enjoying the sun, its making me DFW lazy!

    You must be entering loads of comps, i never win anything when i do them!

    Hope you have a lovely time in London :)

    Thanks!

    I enter about 50 comps every evening! Theres a good daily one on that im hopefully gonna win a few from ( Beckhams perfume and hair serum came from this comp - Glamour comp). Comping gets very addictive when you see every1 esle winning things!

    The weather is suppose to be heavy rain in London 2moz!:rolleyes: So instead we are going to go to Thorpe Park as it doesnt matter if you get wet there! Then hopefully go London on Friday as the weather looks better friday onwards.:o

    Have a lovely time in London. I think i remember you saying you've never been before, the first time in the big smoke is brilliant. Try to avoid Oxford Street though, especially Selfridges! Looking doesn't hurt though!!!

    My OH got GTA a couple of weeks ago, god i was shocked it was soo much. £39.99 for a game is crazy. He's now completed it so i'm trying to get him to sell, but he won't, even though he will never play it again.

    Well done winning the Beckhams perfume set, hopefully you wil get a bit for that on ebay.

    I have been to all three of those places, they are great. The Eye was Amazing in the pod, I really want to go do it again but this time in the day, can probably see more. The Science Museaum is brilliant considering its free to get in, I think my OH and I spent about 3 hours in there. There are some lovely restaurants/bars near the Eye, some very reasonably priced as well for London.

    Just read your now going Thorpe Park tomorrow, have fun!!!

    Good idea for the perfume :D

    Morning all,

    We ended up going to London after all as weather wasnt too bad, it drizzled from OH's house to the train station. I had an umbrella but my hair still decided to puff up into a frizz ball! :o :rotfl: The weather in London was dry and fine though. We went on the Eye...wasnt that great! Dont think it was worth £15.50 anyway! And went to Aquiruim which was ok. Underground wasnt as bad i what i thought it would be. Didnt get to see much as didnt go till late in the day. Deffo need to go back again to see more on a sunny day!
    Anyway my spend at london was £45:rolleyes:
    Also came home to 5 more winning emails :j

    Mark Hill De-Frizz Shine Serum
    Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Relaxing Balm
    Bourjois Delice de Poudre Bronzing Powder
    Mark Hill De-Frizz Shine Serum
    Christina Aguilera eau de parfum
    Naturalites Special Anniversary Edition Lashes

    I wont be selling any of these as i want them all! Christina perfum is what i use anyway.:D I love comping!

    Did a survey for 75p yesterday, thats it for the extra money.
