Sucess (I think)

With a bit of moral support from my mother I've purchased a new PC. In case anyone's interested it's this model: http://www.johnlewis.com/Computing/Computers/Computers/Desktops/230230144/Product.aspx
If anyone (and Cardiff Bloke, you are included in this) now contacts me and informs me that I've been ripped off I'll probably cry, a lot. It's being delivered next Tuesday so I've got Easter weekend to copy all my word documents on to CDs ready to transfer them over. The only thing that worries me is that it doesn't come with Windows Media Player. I'm guessing that it won't be difficult to get hold of though.

Other than the PC I got a summer shirt from 'Republic' and some jeans from 'River Island'. I also tried on a pair of jeans and a skirt in TopShop but despite them both being a size 12 the jeans were much too tight and the skirt literally fell off. It's a crazy retail world we live in!
