Enough is enough

I've made a decision. I'm going to Weight Watchers. I joined a few years ago and had a reasonable amount of success, which I can hopefully repeat this time around. I have the motivation of some too-tight clothes hanging in the wardrobe but I'm going to "borrow" an idea from Shoestring Alley by putting aside £10 for each lb I lose. By my (admittedly terrible) maths, that could add up to at least £280. Gosh.

Wish me luck!

A new investment

I know, I know... I'm not meant to be buying things but when it's a pair of shoes as classic but stylish as this, I think we can make an exception;



I've always been a little wary of almond-toe shoes for fear they look too clog-like, but these are a reasonably subtle point so hopefully won't date too quickly. The rest of the shoe is completely classic and, by golly, are they comfy.

What's that? How much? Crikey, is that the time? I really must dash...
