Sounds fab Amber

I have no social life at all. I haven't been on a night out, any kind of night out, since last christmas Sad no one invites me to anything now because I can't /don't drink. The only time I have been out past 9pm is when Dp has either taken me to the cinema or we've gone for something to eat or when i've been at A&E but I don't think that counts

BrandyAlexander · 18/10/2014 18:20

Have a great night AmberWink

after my last few weeks we are definitely staying in tonight. dh is making this face ---Wink he's getting this face in responseHmm

QueenCardigan · 18/10/2014 19:17

I'm off out in half an hour but sitting here grabbing 5 mins of peace before deciding what to wear.

one we'll keep you out past 9pm Smile

mara I'll pm you in the morning.

Karbea · 18/10/2014 19:17

one I've not been out in awhile either. I've only recently stopped drinking so hopefully that won't mean I get invited out even less!

Drywhiteplease · 18/10/2014 21:10

Karbea and One I have loads of friends who don't drink, (and gave up myself for a v limited timeWink ),doesn't stop me inviting them out.

Ha! Definitely getting it today then Grin

Love it when it's a goodun

AmberNectarine · 19/10/2014 08:54

Morning all

Fair to say I feel sligjtly jaded this morning, but I had a fun night. Woke up in last night's clothes which probably gives you an idea of how the night panned out... Still, am spending this evening cemented to the sofa for X factor and Strictly catch up marathon.

Fedupnagging · 19/10/2014 09:27

Morning, got home at 2am and dh's snoring woke me at 6am Hmm. Still, had a fab time last night. Four course meal and lots of dancing means I didn't drink much so no hangover. very sore feet though

One, I am really sorry you are feeling like that. I think it says more about your so called friends than you. I too have friends who don't drink and it's not a problem at all. I think you will definitely make new friends at uni who will like you just as you are.

Amber sounds like you had a good time Grin.

Queen hasn't put in an appearance yet with her Sunday morning links so guess she had a good time last night too!

Fedupnagging · 19/10/2014 09:29

Mara, forgot to say I can't make the meet up. Am v disappointed to not see you all again.

OneLittleLady · 19/10/2014 09:34

fedup thank you, I know it speaks volumes about them rather than me but can't help but feel that little sting, IYKWIM?

Woken up with an awful headache which means I've overslept again, really need to invest in an alarm clock I don't actually sleep through! the one on my digital radio and the one on my phone, I just sleep straight through them. When it comes to getting up for uni, I have to rely on either DP or family members to call me until I answer Blush I never used to sleep this heavily so I think it's all the medications combined that do it

santamarianovella · 19/10/2014 10:03

Morning!
Like fedup , I'm anxiously waiting for queen's fab Sunday morning links, it's sort of An MNV tradition , Sunday breakfast with queen,

, lovely sunny day here, Trying to read the nov issue of world of interiors , thanks for reminding me mara ,before the dcs are done watching TV,
No plans for today, need to finish a project I'm working on,

libertychick · 19/10/2014 10:14

Outfit sounds great Dry. I'm doing some work but will enjoy the ST Style over a nice lunch later so that's keeping me going.

One for waking up have a look at natural light alarm clock. I had one for years and I loved it. It wakes you up very gently and you feel very refreshed. Now my DD wakes me Grin

Sounds like everyone had good nights out!

Topazandpearl · 19/10/2014 10:17

Good morning!
Didn't Queen give us some links yesterday? Maybe she was planning a lie-in today Grin

OneLittleLady · 19/10/2014 10:18

I will look into one of those, thanks liberty I'm alright and don't get the headaches if wake up at the right time but if I oversleep even a little, I get the worst headaches and it takes hours for them to clear. No painkiller shifts them either, it's like being in a fog, if that makes any sense?

YY to sunday breakfast with QueenC I especially loved the red carpet dresses

Karbea · 19/10/2014 10:21

Morning all,
I had wondered how you all know what suits each other, you have meet ups, that's really nice.
I get headaches if I sleep in late too. I have to be up early every day apart from Sundays, so I sleep in late (9am today) but then feel like I've jet lag on a Monday when I have to get up at 5:20 :/
I'm seriously lusting after some leather trousers, although I guess they might be a bit old hat when I finally can do some shopping, which ones are good? I've some shiny faux leather look leggings from American apparel from years back, which I'll definitely be digging out on the meantime.

Sleepwhenidie · 19/10/2014 10:31

Ciao bellas, I lost you for a while. I am in Bologna (in the sunshine, denim shorts, Greek sandals, Wang vest and a scarf). Having a cheeky weekend away with DH. Too many cocktails last night so we are recovering with coffee on a little roof terrace, so peaceful Smile. It's s v stylish city. Managed not to shop yesterday though it was very tempting! (Shopping with DH not much fun however).

How is everyone? One, Novice are you feeling better?

AmberNectarine · 19/10/2014 10:36

Oh I envy you a bit one - I wake if a sparrow lands on my neighbours' roof! Not the headache though. Since I had meningitis last year I get some real bastard headaches (and no, not just when I am hungover).

Still, nothing shakes off a hangover like the promise of a bargain. Off to the My Wardrobe sample sale and for a browse on the Kings Road. Wearing rockstuds and ripped jeans Smile

OneLittleLady · 19/10/2014 10:37

Sleep! have missed you being around! weekend break sounds lovely. I am recovering slowly, ear is still hugely painful which Im not sure it should be by now but I am at the doctors again this week so will ask them to take another look at it then. It's that wonderful time of the year where I always get ill!!

Sleepwhenidie · 19/10/2014 10:41

Oh One I'm sorry you are still suffering and the headache on top - how miserable. I'm going to pm you tomorrow about supplements that may help your immunity a bit. Also I haven't forgotten setting up that meeting.

OneLittleLady · 19/10/2014 10:54

thank you Sleep but don't rush, I can wait Smile

I never knew amazon delivered on Sundays but my parcel that I missed yesterday has just arrived! He told me they deliver every day except Christmas day which is good to know as I have loads of stuff to order for Christmas

QueenCardigan · 19/10/2014 11:02

Sorry for the disappointment. I did try but the cut and paste problem was driving me insane. I need to pinch dh ipad again. Unfortunately we're just about to head out and enjoy the nice weather.

Good night last night at friends but my back is killing me after walking there and back in heels. I need some new black flats. If anyone has seen anything nice for evenings out with a round toe (nothing pointy please) then let me know.

QueenCardigan · 19/10/2014 11:03

Maybe I'll do another pin board for next weekend for you all. Any ideas for a theme....?

OneLittleLady · 19/10/2014 11:04

Masquerade?gig?christmas party? I'd like to see ideas for those QueenC Smile
