    Thanks :D Already have Undomestic Goddess and Thing's I want my daughters to know. Already owned the Marian Keyes one before the comps started (oxfam is my friend :D), there's 2 more I want to read but as I have a backlog of reading to get through I think I'll get OH one as he has nothing to read. The only one that looks like he'll read it is One Shot ... but I want to read slummy mummy and memory keepers daughter ... oh, what to do :confused: :rotfl::rotfl:

    I have both Slummy Mummy and Memory Keeper's Daughter which I won through this but haven't had time to read them yet.

    Which book did you get Melvis? I got One Shot and am throughly enjoying it. I also got the John Grisham and am waiting for the Memory Keepers daughter. What's The Other Boleyn Girl like FE?
    Keep thinking positively

    I ordered One Shot as I think OH will like it, and if not then it sounds like I will. I have about 6 books to read and OH hasn't had any new ones for ages so thought I'd be nice :D I'm currently half way through Undomestic Goddess and I love it, then I have my other galaxy read (things I want my daughter to know), the new Marian Keyes book, russell brand, peter kay and alan carr autobiographies still to read. That'll take me til Christmas :rotfl: then people will buy me more :rotfl::rotfl:

    Good morning and happy easter :)

    Got woken up at 6 by some idiot honking her horn constantly and screaming 'john, john' up at the flats. After 15 mins of doing it you'd have thought she'd got the hint that he either can't hear her or is ignoring her :mad:

    I haven't managed to get round to reading any of my galaxy book wins yet, trying to collect them all though :o

    Hope everyone has a nice day x

    RE John Grisham, reading The Street Lawyer was almost life-changing, so read it if you've not already.

    As for The Other Boleyn Girl, I enjoyed reading it but had to remove from my mind that it is a novel as it's not historically or factually correct/accurate. I did history A Level and so I can be a bit anal about these things.:rotfl:I'd recommend it though.

    Morning guys!!

    Happy easter!!

    Just read back from yesterday and stuff!!
    I got married when I was 21 and have been married 8 years now!! Big 30 for me in 34days!! Arrrrrgggghhhh!!

    I get on alright with MIL now that we are here and she's in Spain and OH used to get on like a house on fire with my mum before the affair but now he hates spending time with my family (probably just embarrasment from his side - but bugs me rotton!!). Dreamt that he'd been with someone else last night and I hate thinking about it!! Wish I could flick a switch to make me forget!!

    Anyways- must make brekkie for kids and then comp for an hour before I wake him up!
    Made it - 15 years married!! Finally!! xx:beer:
