A day out in the West End yesterday. Think of it as an early Mother's Day present.
First to an OU tutorial about complementary therapies and mental health, which was very interesting, despite some confusion about the start time. The OU had told students 11am but booked the tutor and room for 10.30! Then off to Oxford Street for a quick browse in a few department stores and Waterstones.
Whilst there I did something I have never done before, I had my eyebrows shaped by threading. Now, I have the strange family eyebrows which are quite scanty on the outside edges and mine have not been helped by over enthusiastic plucking in my teens. The result of the threading is interesting....my eyebrows are thinner, nicely shaped and look less like tadpoles than usual, but the result is a little patchy. Nothing that a pencil or a little bit of dark eyeshadow can't disguise though.
Meanwhile, the sales of the bloggers' book are being recorded on Troubled Diva whilst on the Guardian book blog the chick lit debate rumbles on!

How do you know Anne, you've never seen them!
Isn't eyebrow threading REALLY painful!!?? I think it's something I might need though, as I've never managed to get my eyebrows the shape I want and keep them that way! :)
Actually it was much less painful than I had expected...but perhaps my skin has toughened up from all that plucking!! :)
I just know, babe. I'm good like that ...

Not sure this is a good idea, as my eyebrows are gradually disappearing with the march of time. It's getting to the stage where there's more pencil then anything else.
