Having a terrible day here and my fingers are itching to fire off PMs and emails to sundry friends in the hope of a bit of friendly banter.... but seems a bit unfair to disrupt their Friday working day.

So I invite those of you open to distraction on this lovely sunny afternoon, to post here. All topics happily discussed.

To kick things off.... weekend plans?

I'm having my first ballroom/latin private lesson in ages tomorrow morning and I can't wait (although I fear I am now very rusty). Then T-jive on Sunday (my tea urn skills are indispensable, you know :wink: )

Definitely in the "so bad it's good" category!

Or if sparkles might cheer you up, have you seen All That Glitters (http://www.freewebs.com/allthatglittersnow/newlatindesigns.htm)?

Now that brought a huge grin to my face :grin: Now just have to decide how I can justify getting one if I'm supposed to have retired from competition. Perhaps to wear to Nosequins? :yum:

Thank you, Dave :hug:

I'm counting the seconds til I can clear off home and get ready for HML's birthday party tonight. Domestics and Hammersmith tomorrow, then depending on Sunday's weather, a picnic followed by the Tea Dance.

The Australia of today contrasts an epic labyrinth of lost worlds: vast and luminous desert landscapes, magnificent and sometime stark mountains, shimmering billabongs, tropical rainforests and modern cities with the Sydney skyline dominated by the world’s largest steel arch bridge and billowing sails of the Opera House set against a beautiful natural harbour. The past is always present in Melbourne: discover evidence of its proud and fascinating history from elegant Victorian-era buildings and Murray River paddle steamers to maritime museums and steam trains. Adelaide is superbly set in green parklands and bound by the hills of the Mt Lofty Ranges and is close to the renowned Barossa Valley wine region. This is the embarkation point for The Ghan, a trans-continental rail journey across the continent visiting Alice Springs and Ayers Rock en route to Darwin.

Choos ... have been overtaken by Christian Louboutins ... (Sigh) (http://www.shoeworld.co.uk/sw_consumer/facts_featured.html) Don't tell Toby, but there's a branch in London at 23 Motcomb Street, SW1X 8LB. :drool: When I win the lottery, that will be my first stop.

The images are from a shoe thread running in a wedding photography forum - had more than 100 posts!

It must be Friday afternoon when it seems fascinating that I can order stationery on-line just before noon today and it was delivered at 2.15pm. Weekend break DEFINITELY needed. Bring on the TJive.

Don't tell Toby, but there's a branch in London at 23 Motcomb Street, SW1X 8LB. I won't if you won't.... it can be our little secret. I'll tell him they weren't expensive but that, on reflection, I'd prefer a honeymoon in Bognor.

Off home to make cakes for Sunday now - but something tells me we're likely to be overloaded with cakes - I've counted four batches so far :eek:...
...I wonder if we'll all be able to get out of the door again afterwards?
Hope all your Friday afternoons cheer up! :flower:
