What a day - I'd asked for the day off and then got told last night I had to go in for a meeting. Eventually got to work this morning to find the meeting cancelled! Needless to say I was not in a good mood - I ended up leaving at noon.
I took myself over to Harrods sale and got a couple of things but was not too impressed and still had some of my budget left so I persuaded Nic to join me for a huge icecream sundae.
Feeling much better I headed for Liberty's, had a great meal and chat with everyone and bought exactly what I had gone for and nothing else!! I bought a few balls of Chamonix to complete a project and a pack of Jaeger DK in a gorgeous blue and that's it for yarn!!!
I was so pleased with myself that I managed to condense everything into 2 bags to come home. First shock was sitting on the train with Jan - when I went to show her my yarn I did not have it. It was obviously feeling lonely so stayed in the store where it was rescued by Amelia and I now have excuse to go back tomorrow to collect it!!
Second shock was when I went to get my keys out of my handbag and realised that I hadn't given Nic the package I had for her in my handbag!!
Finally got home only to remember I was supposed to buy bread and milk for breakfast.

Oh Yvonne, its a day to remember, as they say.
