    before hollywood Not quite:rotfl: I guess I will just have to wait :)

    How long is the TV repair course? Do you think you will actually do it or is just an idea at the moment?
    rbk- i still don't know, everything is still up in the air at the moment, i'm going to look at it in more detail when my personal life settles down a bit, plus the part i am looking at specialising (tube replacement and gas replacement on plasma screens) is expensive to do and needs a lot of space, so i have to decide if i am going to be able to do it realistically.

    still i have a reason to be happy in my signature, got the email today saying i have had my first competition win of the year and what a win!!!!

    hows you anyway sweet?
    things arent the way they were before, you wouldnt even recognise me anymore- not that you knew me back then ;)
    BH is my best mate too, its ok :)

    I trust BH even if he's from Manchester.. ;)

    all your base are belong to us :eek:

    E45! Need the E45!

    Skin has flared up again on my face and hands. Surprisingly two ends of the spectrum this time. On my hands the skin is white and flaky and on my face it is red, flaky, painful and itchy. :/ It only flares up when I'm stressed though so I think I will have a relaxing bath soon to try and relax.

    awwwwwwwwww poor baby......

    get in the bath and add some olive oil in the bath as well..... don't use any bath bubbles as this will make your skin worse.

    get some cotton gloves and put plenty of cream on and then the gloves...

    Face ....hmmmmmmmmmmm..... you may need to use vaseline mixed with E45

    Hope you feel better soon gorgeous xxxx

    afternoon all

    I haven't had a chance to read all the posts so I'll just give everyone here a big ((((((HUG)))))).

    I've managed to clear out all of Floss' things without bawling my head off today (spent all of Sunday and most of Monday in a trance). I'll take the unopened food down to Pets at Home on Friday when I'm off duty as they have a donations box for the local animal home.

    I thought you might like to see my beautiful pup, this is the best photo I've ever taken of her, it's the look on her face!

    Hope I've done this right...

    Howdy all. I'm reading the thread as always, but don't really know how to talk about how I'm doing. Things are a bit up in the air - new relationship, sexuality issues, complicated friendship, eating disorder relapse and a few other things thrown in the mix!

    Lovely picture PC, I think it really captures her spirit! I'm sorry about your loss, thinking of you. Not the same I know, but my pet is very old and won't be with us much longer, and I can imagine how you are feeling at the moment.

    ILGD - hope you had a nice few days with OH. I love the long bank holiday weekend, struggling to get back to normality! Hope you are well.

    Hope you skin clears up soon LadyMorticia - does this happen often? What causes it? You feeling a bit better today? Remember you can rant to us anytime you like!

    Hi BeforeHollywood, nice to meet you :) Looking forward to getting to know you on the thread. I can sympathise with things being up in the air - hope it all settles into place soon.

    Afternoon Katie! How was your craft course? Any more Karoke planned?

    Oooh, wedding planning Meyore, how exciting! Keep us updated with all the plans, wedding are so exciting!

    500 miles in 2 weeks Steph, thats impressive! Is it a nice car to drive? Thats annoying about the stone chip, hopefully it isn't too noticeable. Not as noticeable s the huge dent in the side of my car!

    CCStar - I don't know if you can get people to be organised - I usually just get annoyed and do it all myself! How is the packing going? We are starting to look at houses, and it is a stressful buisness.

    RBK - how are you doing at the moment? Thinking of you xx
    Did you sleep okay last night Sazbo?
