I took her out for a treat ..first we went on the train to Reading ooooh ! Competely forgetting of course that the Reading Festival is on this weekend ..couldn't move for oddly dressed people in wellybobs wearing ginormous backpacks *g*
Then we had a MacDs , and I let her have the free Coca Cola glass ...so far so cheap , and then we hit the clothes shops !
So, about that overdraft Mr bank manager ?
Fortunately for me she loooves Primark and always manages to make their throwaway fashion look like Prada so we're both happy *g*
I'm having my hair cut and coloured tomorrow *trembles* , but it desperately needs it cos the last time I set foot in there was October 2004 !
Dear Marilyn said ' I know there won't be much cutting done , it must be like watching kids play air guitar watching your hairdresser , so what colour will you be going for ?'
I'm thinking something less tortoiseshell like ...and possibly darker , but I'll decide after several coffees , 10 cigs and half a bottle of Rescue remedy *g*
