OK, at a loose end while I watch '8 Out of 10 Cats', I am moved to do this strange little meme, blaired from [personal profile] dimity_blue

Love the jeans collection - I guess it's one of those things you just can't bear to part with - no matter how manky they get... :~)

I had to change the car section to my desk, so I'm glad I'm not the only one who didn't have all the sections covered. :oD

And how did you get Jim and Blair on your Abbey debit card?! I'm with them too, and mine's plain.

You go to the Abbey online main page - http://www.abbey.com/
there's a pull down menu at the bottom of the red side bar on the left; 2nd from bottom you'll see 'get an abbey photocard', and follow that through.
They ask you to upload a picture which you jiggle onto a card template, and they'll send it to you - it costs a fiver.
I found it really hard to find a picture that fit, though, because it's only 2/3 of the card surface, and the chip really gets in the way for anything where they're standing side by side.
I went with the shot from Deep water where Blair is smiling over Jim's shoulder as he looks at the diary - but that hasn't worked that well, either, because (and you should also bear this in mind!) the card number runs right under Jim's nose, obscuring half his face and making it look like he has a sort of Hitler 'tache ::VBG::
I'm thinking of getting seeking out a more suitable picture and getting a new one done, but, as I said, it's really tricky finding a picture that fits well.
Good luck!

Oooh. I hope this goes through this time - weird things are happening here! Maybe cos I'm watching Most Haunted as I post...!
Heh heh heh.

Aaah, have you saved a train ticket that brought you to me for the weekend? I'm touched (in more ways than one!).

In my fridge: (depressingly bare)
1. a half drunk bottle of wine from when Gilly last visited
2. Some very manky looking cheese
3. some veggie sausages
4. A large bar of chocolate for when life gets unbearable
5. Small milk portions purloined from restaurants so I have some for friends when they drop in

In my closet:
1. My cat Caligula
2. Loads of clothes that I've grown out of
3. about 4 items of clothing that fit me
4. My daughters 'hidden' birthday pressies
5. A poster of agent Smith from the Matrix

In my car:
1. A mountain of excavation reports that I should be entering onto a database instead of writing this.
2. A fluorescent vest
3. A heap of Cd's
4. A bag of Werther's originals
5. An animal first aid kit

Hmm, looking in wallet,
1.£3.18p to last me till next Friday!
2. a used cinema ticket to X-men 3,
3. a voucher for £1 off Felix cat food
4. a 4 leafed clover pressed in an old stamp book (well any luck helps)
5. the address of a really nice bistro in Paris I shall probably never get to again!

LOL. Sad to say my pockets are full of junk I forget to throw away. Theres a dirty, doggy, screwed up tissue and a toffee wrapper in there too, that I didn't bother to mention :G:

Why have you shut Caligula in your closet???! O:! And why haven't you drunk the wione? Man! In my house, that would've been gone the very same evening :G:

Caligula isn't shut in the closet, she is just sitting on a shirt that has fallen off the hanger with that, 'I'm not shifting for anyone' expression on her face!
I think I'd drunk and eaten enough at the end of that weekend, and I suspect it'll be pretty sour by now!

In case it's not immediately apparent (o: I'm working my way through all the new icons I made myself last nightwhile watching t'telly. Aren't they pretty? :-D

And Brits. I don't suppose Crossroads ever made it across the Atlantic. ::giggles at the very thought::
I like that one, too. Makes me snort and snigger like a loon.
