A successful day!

1. I managed to drag myself out of bed at 6am to go to the gym, despite only getting into bed 3 hours earlier after falling asleep on the sofa.

2. I had a call from Argos yesterday to say my broken 8 month old iPod had been repaired and it was ready to collect. They'd estimated 2- 3 weeks when I took it in on Wednesday last week. I went in to get it this morning and the man brought out a lovely shiny brand new one, they'd replaced it rather than repair it.

3. We took Tom suit shopping this afternoon for his prom and thought we were in for one heck of an ordeal. He's so skinny and tall and I was envisaging him in a slim fitting trendy suit (with Converse which were delivered earlier in the week) but could we find an affordable one in his size?? He's still growing and chances are it'll only be worn once or twice so I didn't want to spend too much. We finally found one in Next, the last place we'd looked, and it's lovely quality and looks gorgeous on him, and it was just £79!! I was surprised it was so cheap in there! He's chuffed to bits with it, tried it on again when he got home with a shirt and I've just had to make him get changed out of it to cook dinner :lol: He also got some waterproof walking shoes too for when he walks Billy, much needed but it's not often he comes shopping with us so we've not been able to get any.

4. Joe is indebted to me because I treated him to the new Manchester United shirt seeing as Tom had had so much :P

ho jo dont they look smart in a suit
when my eldest got married he had morning dress but not with tails he looked wonderfull
he had never worn a suit before
perhaps you can sell it if he doesent wear it again
or perhaps he will never have it of his back

79 pounds is really good for a suit I think! I was going to suggest hiring one, but at that price why bother. He may get more use from it than just the prom.
