Annual leave day 3

Today I decided to amble round Leam town centre before going to the park. This turned out to be a major error. I remembered later on in the morning that bright sunshine gives me a great desire to go shopping and buy things - however this memory returned only after I had purchased the following:
1 sundress
1 bag - possibly the most gorgeous thing ever seen in the history of the world
1 bracelet
1 pair of earrings (eek, I really have to do it now!)
1 pack of knickers
1 bra (necessary for the dress)
1 pair of pyjamas (with both summer and winter tops so actually a saving...in a way...)
1 bottle of shampoo
1 bottle of Dove holiday self-tan moisturiser type stuff
2 bottles of suncream
1 baguette for lunch
1 newspaper

Error.

I have now decided to apply for a new credit card with 0% interest on balance transfers, and whack the whole lot over to that. Logically this means I should buy the other things I want on my old card so I can transfer the whole lot in one go - I'm therefore going out again tomorrow looking for a summer jacket, a sunhat and some t-shirts. I also plan to get a digibox. If someone would like to remove all my plastic from me and confiscate any notes higher than £5 in value this would be appreciated...

Anyway, after this mad spending spree I re-applied my suncream in the hope that putting on extra now will take away the big red patch on my nose that I got in Warwick yesterday before I realised quite how sunny it was, and went off to the park with my lunch and the paper. It was so amazingly hot but I managed to find a good shady tree by the river with a nice breeze, and spent a happy couple of hours there. After that I ambled home again and then went out to Chorus for a jolly rehearsal with Lucy and Naomi. Another excellent day!

PS - I apologise in advance for any possible summary of tomorrow that I may attempt to post rather late on. The girls and I are going to the cinema and to Old Orleans, and Juicy and I are meeting for lunch first, so my fingers may have gone all draxy by the end of the evening!

Maybe we should try and set a drunken blogging record... Or we could come home and do a joint drunken blog - now that'd be interesting!

Am soooooo looking forward to girly night - it's the only thing keeping me in my room typing away at this essay when it's so gorgeous and sunny outside! Still, the more I type the quicker it'll get done.

Ooh, and someone gave me a discount voucher for the Old Orleans! Remind me to use it tonight!

Enjoy your annual leave, glad to hear it's going so well :)
