you'll be fine Amy-what is it your getting again? (i have the memory span of a mentally impaired goldfish!)

**Amy**

:rotfl: @ mentally impaired goldfish...

Its a Japanese cherry blossom design with a kanji symbol. I kind of designed it, and the guy said he would redo it. So im not sure how big it will be (he said it needs to be made bigger - was already 1/2 A4 size :eek: ). That'll be why its going to take 4 1/2 hours.

oooh your a brave girl-mine took 10 minutes and i nearly passed out lol. my best mates got a whole back piece done that took 3 sittings of 5 hours!! its a male angel in black and white. The wings wrap around her shoulders to the front, thats the main thing she was worried about when she broke her shoulder recently that they wouldnt cut her tattoo when they put the plate in lol! (they didnt though :-)

Right thats posted one ebay item just one to go now, waiting for cheque, didnt come today :-(

Had a bit of a reality check about the MINI-been looking on auto trader, working my way up from a one-to a cooper-to a cooper s, but now im thinking more along the lines of a starter MINI-ive only been driving for 6 years and im not the best driver in the world, how gutted would i be if i spent 10 grand and promptly kerbed up all the alloys and reversed into a bollard? obviously id still be fuppin annoyed if i spent 6 grand but not quite as bad!
i can always work my way up to the dark silver cooper s in another 10 years or so lol.
so i will be going for a MINI one or possibly a cooper depending on the price difference, probably a 2003/2004 (avoiding 2001/2002 as they had a lot of initial problems with them) Will be off to check out a more realistic price now!

Right, it a bit complicated as there are so many options available its a bit difficult finding a car that has the options that i would pick if i had bought it from new!!
But i think if i bought it now i would be looking at about nine to nine and a half grand, question is obviously i am looking at about 2 or 3 years in the future so what is a 9 grand car going to cost then? going by a 2003/2004 car it will be about 7 or 8 years old then?
head hurts!

Ooo MM sounds like a mamouth task involving the old grey matter! :rotfl:

I reckon it probably would be worth around £6-7K. Does that sound about right? Im quite rubbish at guessing about cars.

Im off for my lunch now... see you in a bit.

Blimey girl, one of the girls on here is trying to get 350 in a month and another is trying to raise enough from it to buy a tv. I managed to get to £5 and gave up as i couldnt take the terrible r&b any more lol!! Decided that the money i lose by not doing it is worth it to keep my sanity!! You have my deepest respect for doing it for so long! How many stars do you have?

**Amy**

Back from lunch. It wasnt that great. :rolleyes: Had to listen to this girl i dont really like who invited herself along whitter on about her new boyfriend and the old "Amy dont worry, you will find love one day"... im not worried :mad:

And then a crappy phone call from my sister. We (my bro, sis and me) were going to buy a nintendo ds for my mum for her birthday (June) and give it to her next week.

Basically my bro has no money (git!) and my sister can only afford £20, leaving it to me to find £100. :mad: I told her I couldnt do anymore than £60, she whinged, told me I had money to do my tattoo, whinged some more and then hung up on me.

I think i will be getting my mum a Nintendo DS for Christmas
