Hmm.. or some sort of hanging basket?

Had a bit of a restless sleep so up a bit later than I was planning to, going to get ready in a mo, go into to town and attempt very cheap clothes shopping. And then back to the joys of the bathroom :eek:

Not too much of a list today as I've no idea how long the scrubbing will take, but I do want to:

- buy bits to finish outfit
- put away dishes and wash the ones I used yesterday/ this morning
- thoroughly clean bathroom

Just need to get off the chair first......

Can the old bras decorate the ends of the sausage dogs? :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

There's a thought! Might get some comments, as it would be a 'Wonder' sausage dog then!

............groan..................i'll get my coat.....................

I'm fairly sure you'd get comments! But if you've got comments like that stored up, a good time will be had by all (not *that* sort of good time, what do you think I'm suggesting?)

Obviously we're not the first people to think about this.. http://www.knickersblog.com/?p=942

Where do you find them? I think i will now be 'pimping' my bra, and then using the others as a bird scarer..like the New Zealand one...neighbours will have something to say i am sure!
I reckon our birds are so tough though that they will be nesting in them, or the cats can swing in hammocks, may even use them as ear muffs if weather gets really cold!Just hope the wire doesn't poke me in the eyes!:rotfl: :rotfl:

Erm, well, I knew I should have got up earlier.

To start with, was just leaving the house and for some reason had a glance into my post tray, and there was an envelope.. with the Debenhams vouchers! Must have arrived yesterday but god knows what time!! Anyway, completely failed to find anything in Debenhams for the wedding, but did get some useful bits and pieces (two bras, a top, tights, 5 pairs of knickers - and only spent £1.50 on top of the vouchers). Picked up a Spanish dictionary in bargain book shop for £1.. and then wandered round for AGES trying to find suitable bits for next weekend's outfit! Eventually found a pair of shoes in M&S for £15 (reduced from £40) - I think they're lovely and will definitely wear them again. Oh and I had to buy a sandwich before I fainted, and some bits from Lush that my parents wanted me to pick up for them - I'll either get the money back for those though, or something in exchange.

Total money left - £115.04

And the bathroom is not getting done today!
