I just finished the old thread by accident

Thanks for all help. Have made a note of Acer and might trek to Walmart. Thank you. Am rubbish at stuff like this.

Still no idea on gold bags. Will get back to you.

I know how much you love Coach!!!!!!!!!!!

Go to endless.com and type in gold. Several hundred options come up. I found a few I liked, but they kind of all tended to be over $300. They do have all different price ranges, though.

how about looking for a gold bag on etsy, cali?

Oooo, Etsy

My friend makes fabulous tote bags but might be a bit big for a wedding. And not gold. But lovely.

It's me, UR.

Temp namechange

SuperBunny. I kinda imagine the Energizer bunny with a cape and mask.

A cape and a mask? I like that!

I stole this from DS - he hurtles around in his bath towel shrieking, "I'm SuperBunny..."

So do my boys UR - 'tis from Max and Ruby!

LOL

DS often looks at me and says, "Hi Max"

I'd like to officially state how much I am enjoying locally grown summer produce - peaches, tomatos, strawberries and corn on the cob. Yum!

Kickassangel, I live about 20 minutes, south of Ann Arbor. Its a nice city. UR is right, the weather in October should be ok. It didnt get really cold until February this year.

Ooooh, can someone settle a sizing issue for me please?

US size 10 is equivalent to what in the UK? I have conflicting sources, one of which I want to believe and one which made me down-hearted after a late-sales splurge at the shops.

UnderRated - FYI, the new issue of Consumer Reports magazine has extensive reviews/ratings on latest laptop and desktop computers. Definitely buy the issue and read up before you choose - there's some very good advice there.

thanks cali, we are big fans of eric carle around here, love his hermet crab book

Ooo, I love Eric Carle. Thanks for adbice on computer. May try to get on ethis week. Never been to Applebees.

I think a US 10 is a UK 14? I think.

Everyone ok?

UR

Oh no, really a 14? Damn. There was I congratulating myself that I was back to a 12 (and buying clothes to celebrate!) Mind you, quite a good haul, so no regrets!

Perhaps I need a concerted push to splurge on a more diminutive Fall wardrobe. When do good deals start on warmer clothes, it would make a nice motivating target to aim for?

I've noticed a lot more Eric Carle here than back home too. In the UK they are almost displayed apologetically in bookstores, unless they are Hungry Caterpillars, of course.

Also the mention of Applebees made me think of something. You know the Arbys logo? I assume everyone knows and this is quite rightly a national laughing stock?
