    Glad to hear you're settling into the flat, have you bought any nice new housey things?

    Very little, well relatively, four pints of Kronie but I inexplicably got up at 5am (bloody summertime) and so am underslept as well as being a litle tipsy last night. I don't think I have been helped by eating crap that is making me feel spewie.

    I am sure I will muster up to a glass of wine in a bit - lol

    Err, too much. A bookcase, TV unit, two stools, dining table and chairs I am using as side tables, od bits and pieces and my pressie to myself, a £60 food processor. My parents very generously gave me £200 that I got lots of other stuff with so I convinced myslef that spending £175 in IKEA was completely justified (might even be more as I am too scared to add up the receipts:eek::eek::eek:) I am a BAD, BAD, BAD DFW:o

    I am on hols at end of July, am kidding myself that I will lose a stone in the two weeks running up to it (:confused: by not dieting or exercising) to be fair I could probably lose a fair bit of weight by shaving my legs (things have got a little out of control)

    I got this from the OED:

    Period of misery where a person eats miserable things and ceases to drink the amount of fermented grape or grain required to maintain sanity. Extreme violent psychosis is a common side affect.
