Delurking to say I have two pairs of Fitflops, and, in this weather, I could hardly bear to wear anyhing else! (if Amber has five pairs, I feel I can dare to confess.....)
I have been keeping up but have been very busy with work. I have a Winser order on its way, will link anything I decide to keep.

Grin at Dry - we are planning on serving some mojitos on Sunday - love them.

one that dress is v nice - normally I try to avoid poly but it's not expensive - do you want it for a particular occasion?

Hello all. quick delurk to ask whaddaya think of this. Clearly trying it on in 28 sweaty degrees is bonkers but I'm torn between the navy and charcoal. Like the idea of classic navy and I really must break out of my grey rut. How versatile is navy? It feels lovely on, and bargainous to boot.

LeFreak I love that jumper - alpaca and silk sounds lush. I think navy is very versatile

Hi everyone, I have been enjoying the sunshine too, added to which, DH is away this week (riding his bike up and down Alps, the nutter), boys are off school and I am trying to get my 'to do' list of stuff cleared before the end of next week when we go away. Hence my relative absence, though I have been trying to keep up with you all Smile

Re shopping, I ordered two bikinis yesterday, also visited Anna but once I got into the changing room I just couldn't face trying stuff on, too hot and sticky Shock. So bought nothing Grin

Sorry about uni One, how is BIL doing?

Shop did I say that hairstyle would look fab on you? And I love the sandals. House is sort of still tidy Smile. The listing for our house is now on the website and the photos look great so I'm really pleased.

Sounds like you are having a great night Dry! Envy

Nice jumper lefreak...navy definitely versatile Smile

Amber how's the hand?

Morning! Found you!

Our trip went ok and we arrived only 1 h later than planned. DD still asleep but DS up at 6 as usual even though he only fell asleep at 22h in the car Hmm

Will try to catch up later but I'm hoping DPIL will offer to watch DC for a couple of hours so I can go shopping in Antwerp. Probably not for clothes but for lighting and maybe some more furniture. There are some lovely antique shops as well, and I love a good browse.

dry how's the head this morning?

Morning all! After 2 months of bliss with ds finally sleeping through he's started waking up constantly in the middle of the night again. :( he's done it 4 nights in a row, dh and I back to be being knackered again. :( then he looks so adorable in the morning that I don't want to throttle the little monkey! Oh and he's started that at the same time as dd has decided that she wants to try being nappy free at night. Cue a visit every night of "mummy I have wet myself". sigh!

Anyway it's lovely to see the returners, Amber, Topaz and Le Freak . I have to confess to not knowing what fit-flops were, have just had to google them and say "ohhhh those".Smile

Sleep, are you moving or renting out?

I love the cable jumper (I have similar in cream) but years old and its a staple, always survives the annual declutter. Not so much a fan of the French Connection dress but not because its polyester (I have to admit to not being as bothered as others about that) but because it probably would drown me, and I love that zebra print dress.

Another Grin for Dry and a whisper....if you didn't like the mojito they can't have made it for you properly!

GrumpyOldHorsewoman · 20/07/2013 08:26

Morning all. Absolutely knackered as I popped out to meet friends for a drink in village pub at 8pm yesterday and got home at about 12.15. Checked messages because our bookkeeper had not yet sent me net figures for staff wages and they're supposed to be paid today! Still not had them, so cue worrisome, wakeful night panicking about it. Bit early to text her now, so just biding my time until I can. I hate being responsible for business money matters - can't handle the stress. Linus and Novice we should have convened earlier seeing as how we're all sleep deprived.
Enjoyed Dry's 'love you all' late night loo-post!

Welcome back Topaz LeFreak and Amber

Love that zebra dress Liberty - you are good at finding dresses! Hope you find the one you have your eye on in FC and have a great bbq.

One I am also not keen on polyester - in this heat! But it is a lovely dress, a bit halston style.

Like the cable knit LeFreak agree navy is very chic.

Dry I am surprised about the mojito, love them!

So after being quite frugal with the sales, I have just gone mad and bought loads of shoes! I will link but probably will be sending some back (all bought over the internet)

Boden will only keep if they are really lovely as I have a lot of sandals and don't get to wear them much

Nike love love these!

grenson bargain

espadrill boot

Happy weekends to all!
