well, the car is fabulous! oh yes - we are clearly on our way to accomplishing the american dream - married, house, car, children (oops - not yet on that one!)(oh, and not american either). so, my blooging friends, how are you all today? did i tell you all that i've joined a gym? i went last night and did a mini workout and then had a sauna which was lovely, although not naked which is a bit strange and not nearly as effective me thinks. i then went round to the amazing viv's house and saw karen and viv - lovely people and surprisingly close friends considering the brevity of our time (virtually) living together! it's karen's birthday on friday (tomorrow) and we are heading round there to celebrate before we go on to cathers' dinner party for which i am meant to be making a pumpkin pie but there are no pumpkins in any shops anymore! apparently you can buy it tinned from safeways though.
