I’ll actually laugh so much if we see a snippet of the powder room in the future and the pheasants are magically centered.
We’ll know what’s happened, even if she doesn’t show it!

@theredgossiper Oh my, thank you very very much, dear, for your lovely rendition of my future avatar. You are to be commended for your efforts and dedication to all us tattlers who asked for your illustrations that are, btw, so so clever and detailed. You are a very talented and generous lady. Thanks again 
My excuses for this late reply (and it might take me a few days to upload the avatar) but I have been feeling very under the weather these last days (my illness kicks with a vengeance from time to time) and my whole body has been hurting like hell so it's been impossible to write/engage. I still read you all, your wittiness and loveliness of character always puts me in a good mood.
@Oops... the above also goes for not having joined the party yet. But thanks for the wonderful entertainment as it's being planned. You are a riot to read))))
Love to all. May you all have a lovely week ahead.
ps- not a pity-partier here, so there is no need to reply to this post: what anyone has to endure in life is to be accepted and endured with a smile so as to be able to be ultimately happy and content on a day to day basis, or moment to moment basis, and I can say that I am indeed a happy gal due to said acceptance. If there is/are, however, replies, I have to offer my excuses in advance for not being able to write back at the moment. I wish I could engage more, but hands now hurt a lot from writing. This too shall pass, anyway

I must warn you - you won’t be allowed admission with aforementioned sossidge in your possession. You won’t get past @Milking Keynes, let me tell you - and I will have my sniffer dog, Gem the Shih Tzu, with me. Let this be a warning to all of you so that we can avoid sossidge/ketchup confiscation.
Is it a specific strain of sausage that is forbidden, or are we not discriminating? Would @Milking Keynes be likely to turn a blind eye to a Quorn sausage?
Nicky posted this today and it got me thinking...Um Lydia and Carrie didn’t pay for that last appointment.... being Nicky herself prob charges the most... est $1000 plus tip they owed Nicky when they walked out with beautiful hair. How can they live with themselves for SO many reasons but it just doesn’t make sense if their hair looked this beautiful at the appt to not pay? Even if unhappy several days later did they stop payment or what?
Bad enough Lydia didn’t pay but also Carrie??????? So rude.
today’s post about pricing (not Lydia hair)
Carrie & Lydia after their June appointment more than happy to let the salon take after photos.

Oh, dear - am confused and addled now - my poor nerves... maybe we shouldn’t ban anything until we know the full menu - lets await instructions from @Oops - I need a nap now..We might be allowed sausages at the festival, maybe, but certainly not at the Bonnets and Frocks event - not a good lewk.

Come on, SAUSAGE dogs will def be allowed and needed!!
What about a wiener?
Not white knighting for Lidl but I'm pretty sure Nicky has said she does not give freebies (but I'll happily check with Nicky). I should imagine it was the second, meltdown appt that Lidl had where she didn't pay.
Oh I thought she said in her igtv they didn’t pay? And that I thought she said in some posts she never gives freebies. Maybe the meltdown appt was a free fix like any hairdresser would offer?
Thank you so much @Oops... for adding me! You can count on me with those bikes!

Ahem...Havisham! - Just to stop me going completely cuckoo...No! Sorry! Too late! I’m cuckoo!!
Are you now also saying that you wish to be hired in the capacity of a squeezy ketchup bottle assistant at one or both of the 2 Events we are planning?
Anyone know where there‘s a nest I can lay my weary head in for the night please? Honestly - these besties...

Every reading will be THE DREAM.
I see a man coming out of a closet.... and a crazy haired with a chinched wait stuffing him back in?
I see alot of Hermes bags but without official unboxing or receipts......
I can see A small sauce roll with tiny legs running around free in a field after a lucky escape and a cat receiving a donar pancreas transplant....
I see more TV/dram/film sets, maybe a Rovers Return themed cinema/Games.....?
I see a life of empty raised flower beds... and a plant pot with the skeleton and remains of a Wisteria.
I see 4 bodies under the patio, with the initials CC, VM, NL and the name Hadassah....
I see a million bot army preparing, winter is coming and they are practicing their Like and Comment warfare strategy.
I see multiple trips to the ED for accidents in the home, a small man unfortunately falls down a ten inch gap in a bed and a female falling out of a bath in the shape of a pair of slippers!
Tickets per reading with be £50 + VAT + shipping and you get a free GLOBY independent tan kit with every reading!!!
Can wait to see you all there lovelies!!! Xxx

Please too may I come. I will do a lionessoftheherbs workshop where I will suggest the best herbs to go under a big dollop of tomato ketchup with sossidge. Also the correct herbs to grow to cook a square meal to show a significant other they are loved. I will bring my Mr Darcy Monty Don who himself has offered to give a short talk on the growing of herbs. Specifically herbs that boost the male libido to make a man manly n the bedroom department. So that his wife does not turn into a nagging ungrateful bad tempered witch
Balayage is a skill for sure and I’m sure Nikki is a lovely person but £500+ is crazy money.
Never more than 40€ for me at the hairdressers. Otherwise I would do a lidl and have a fit!
I went to Despina (the goddess herself) in April 2019 for Balayage - it was expensive but definitely not £500. Result was amazing I must admit. And it was because of Lidl that I booked in with her, but in my defence, she was SLIGHTLY less of an odious narcissist in those days #influenced #thesearemyconfessions

I will message Nicky, then it can go on The WIKI!
Thank you so much @Oops... for the invite. it is THE DREAM be able to partake in this festival in my DREAMMMM coat that I DESIGNED. #myownbrand Got my bushy tail and eyebrows ready!
In the bushy tail tent, you will learn how to wear hats properly without poking holes in them. You can also learn how to properly groom your eyebrows so they don't turn into crawling caterpillars. Bushy tail tent also provides roaring fire(started by the house-elf) and unlimited Champagne.
Who wore it better?
Too much time was invested into searching for the photo of DREAMMMM. But no squirrel was harmed in the process.
