Ooh richtea what a lovely gift! What bag did your friend get? My sister has a couple of Chanel bags and I couldn't quite believe the price...

pixieg1rl · 06/02/2015 19:57

That sounds like a lovely day richtea, well up until the coming back to a house full of kids part.

Long ago before children I used to go for pedicures. I used to love the hot wax ones.

Despite my protestation that I don't like rugby players, I'm watching it with dp. I see quite a few of the England players are from Bath club. I expect CJ played rugby, but managed to escape with his nose and ears intact.

Cracking start whajeb

Richtea19 · 06/02/2015 20:51

cjwoof what's Spearmint Rhino?, I don't know what a champagne room is either.
Also rugby not really my bag, thighs are too thick and stocky, cauliflower ears and bent noses - no thanks!

orphan · 06/02/2015 20:55

richtea snap! CJ's long lean lines are much nicer. Their necks are wider than their heads...

orphan · 06/02/2015 20:57

Plus those helmet things with ear holes don't do anything for them!

Richtea19 · 06/02/2015 20:58

She bought a blk quilted bag with chain. Kinda classic. Bloody expensive.... State of shock, and the matching purse. Thousands not hundreds!!! She's been through the most dreadful time with her mum and dad, so really happy that she had fun today and bought what she wanted, and very kind to buy my glasses.

I've just spoken to my sister today, she has been interviewing for new staff for her company and one of the questions States "sexual preference". When she told me I laughed so much, and then said, "on a swivel chair". It didn't have the impact I wanted!!!

Nickel45 · 06/02/2015 21:28

whajeb what a fantastic story ... So completely different and clever, I can imagine Molly's temper from here! absolutely love it!!!

orphan · 06/02/2015 21:28

richtea yes that's the type of bag my sister has plus a couple of clutches. I thought I'd misheard when she told me the cost. However, I did get her cast off Mulberry!Grin

Surely, interviewers can't ask sexual preference? Unless, it's actually pertinent to the job eg brothel?!

orphan · 06/02/2015 21:32

That came out a bit wrong - I'm suggesting your sister works for/runs a brothel!!Blush

orphan · 06/02/2015 21:32

Omg - I mean I'm not suggesting ....

Richtea19 · 06/02/2015 21:34

Maybe it was sexual orientation? I can't remember now, but it was something like that. All,I could think of was jens little book of office furniture!

I'm trying to watch Wolf Hall, but I just can't get into it. Richmond Sausage has a thick neck too, Cumberland!

Richtea19 · 06/02/2015 21:35

That's ok orphan sis would think that hilarious!

orphan · 06/02/2015 21:41

Phew, would hate to think I'd jeopardised my position as your fellow tape measurer!Smile

I think I've got two Wolf Hall episodes to watch now. Uggh, thick, uncooked Richmond. I'll say 'no thanks' to a swivel with him.

orphan · 06/02/2015 21:45

Has anyone seen the film 'secretary' with James Spader and Maggie Gyllenhal? I seem to remember they had fun with a desk, but no swivel chair action.

pixieg1rl · 06/02/2015 21:56

All I remember from Secretary was her crawling around the office with her typing in her mouth...

Ilovelblue · 06/02/2015 22:01

icemist I too am totally kn........d. I could have had 40 winks at work this afternoon, well, that was until I remembered TwiceKnightley's version of 40 winks in her storyline! I did have a doze after tea tonight and before I started my home manicure.

The hot wax was quite relaxing actually and since I was stuck with two plastic bags on my hands and there was nothing on television worth watching, I was forced into watching episode 3 of OG. I skipped over the middle bit where Molly and Smurf are back in the UK and when I was watching the Sohail/hospital scene, I decided CJ's hands and nails were so lovely that I rewound for another look. I think he was wearing clear polish on his nails. They looked very shiny.

Richtea my Mum had wanted to buy me a Mulberry bag for about two years before she died and I kept refusing but afterwards, I wished I'd taken her up on the offer so I went out and bought one. I absolutely love it and it makes me think of her every time I use it. I can understand why your friend splashed out. What are your sunglasses like?

I am going to start making tracks for bed now and then will read Whajeb's latest offering when I'm tucked up.

Night all! Hope we all have a nice weekend. xx

By the way, if, like me, you had never heard of Spearmint Rhino, try this link:
