Bloody hell, I think I'm feeling better!

First time I have felt anywhere near normal since 23rd December. I <3 antibiotics that actually work ( Read more... )

I had 20 minutes in town this evening and noticed that everything in the Monsoon sale was now 70% off, so dashed in and found three things in my size that I had tried on and liked previously, but hadn't ended up buying. I came out with a smart grey wool dress, a red top and a lovely patterned swirly-skirt viscose dress for the grand sum of £43. ( Read more... )

So, a question (inspired by a post on TLL). Are you an Owl or a Lark? Do you prefer to rise, singing and positive early in the morning, or are you a sluggish, late riser who speeds up as the day goes by and does your best working, exercising or thinking in the evenings. I'm definitely the latter, I HATE the early mornings, loathe them with a ( Read more... )

Added to this is the fact that I have relatively wide calves (calfs?) which can make boot buying a bit traumatic.  I would really like a pair of knee length purple boots (suede or leather) and/or a pair of smart ( Read more... )

What do you guys think of these dresses?  Which one should I buy or should I just go for both (shipping for one is $15 but for two is $20 and I love them both).  They finish on Ebay tonight and I need to put in bids before I go to bed if I decide I want to spend $70 on dresses!

I may actually bother to watch the rest of the series ( Read more... )

Decided that I would go to Carlisle to go shopping today as I have hardly left the house for three weeks apart from to go to hospital and work because of my back.  I needed to visit Lush for shampoo and conditioner so thought this was a good opportunity to do some proper shopping In Real Life!  This all tied in well as Dave is currently filling in ( Read more... )

Considering Kendal is such a tiny town, I managed to spend a significant amount of money on clothes this afternoon and could quite happily have spent even more on a couple of pairs of long boots.  I could also have spent upwards of £1000 in Monsoon, but there again I could ALWAYS spend £1000 in Monsoon.

Shopping was precipitated by Jenny and I ( Read more... )
