I popped over to Mum and Dad's today to do Mum's hair. In the course a sipping my tea it suddenly occured to me that I would need a tankini for my holiday. I have just bought a new bikini to show off the new figure. Crap. Now, I hate strap marks almost as much as I hate a certain previous car...no clues but Dad knows what I am talking about right, Dad? Anyway, there is no way I can expose a new scar albeit 1 or 5 to 100 degree heat and sun.. Where o where do I get a tankini?
eBay of course. For the sum of £9 and thanks to recent selling on said website I have the money for such a swimwear emergency. Plus both tankinis are strapless...All is now well.
Now, travel insurance........I don't think eBay covers that...

Justice
A celebrity guilty??? Holy murder, Batman!
Yes, Phil Spector is guilty of being a lunatic, murdering Lana Clarkson and far far worse having really bad hair. Did anyone really doubt this verdict? Hopefully the family will now get the closure they deserve oh and millions of dollars from this vile man. I wonder if he will share a cell wih OJ? Hmmmmm.............
14 days til consultant. Happy days.
Had an interesting Easter. QPR had a sweet win yesterday coming from 2-0 down to winning 3-2. Sheffield Weds weren't singing any more... Oh no. My favourite goalkeeper was playing which kept me entertained. If I can find one I will post a pic and you will see what I mean.
Can I just say.. Jade Goody...ENOUGH ALREADY!
There out of my system.

Weekly Update
I am still here!!! 3 weeks til the consultant.
Eddie's parents evening was successful. He is on course to pass his11 + and go to grammar school. His tutor was very impressed and said he was aleady working at a 90% pass rate. The pass mark is 85% so it's looking good. I am so proud of my little man.
Last night we went to the kit sponsors evening at QPR. Ed sponsors the goalkeeper who I do have to say is utterly gorgeous. Think Julian Mcmahon (Cole from Charmed) and that is him. A big yum! I spent a lot of time smiling and asking for a picture!! Heehee...I may be in pain but I am not dead!!! LOL!!!!
It's been a year since Jess passed on. That has flown. I still can't bring myself to scatter her ashes. She hated the rain the sun and being outside she was a real house cat so she is staying in the house, by the fire where she is nice and warm. Silly I know but what can you do?
Well, lots to do. Thanks to all who read this blog. I may not get any comments like some but I know by the counter that people are reading!!!!

Doomed!
Yesterday I spent a frustrating hour trying to get a sooner appointment. I was told that Mr Farouk's secretary didn't work Mondays at the end of it. Today I phoned up to be told that Mr Farouk was a very busy man and there was no hope of getting in sooner because of Easter. Oh, but I can pay to go private well, I'm sure I can but with what? Shirt buttons? So I am doomed to wait in pain and with nausea, back ache to die for and a lovely taste of rotten eggs. The secretary did say she would try and would phone me. Has she? The survey says: DA DA!
On a brighter note. My dear friend Sally is getting remarried in July. She has had a rough few years with her ex being a $%^£ but she now has Mark who is perfect for her. Of course being a good friend I had the first invite, so naturally I need a dress. Now call me thrifty but I refuse to spend a ransom on a dress so where do we go? eBAY! I tracked down a gorgeous cream and purple (what else) tea dress from Monsoon which retails at £85. I waited until the last mintue on the auction and swooped in with 1 minute to spare and bought it for £20!!!! Bargain. I already have shoes and a bag to match so outfit sorted. I am also going to wear it to my parents 40th wedding anniversary in June. I also got a purple summer top for 50pence!!! Gotta love eBay...
I have parents evening tomorrow so will be reporting on Ed's progress.
Well, must pootle, I hear Hannah Montana downstairs so must change channel!!
Byee!!!!!!
