    she could say she bought them for her daughter, and shes been locked up for arson :p

    When I took clothes back today they asked me why, I said that one makes me realise just how fat I am, and the others are like tents on me.... your sizing is a bit hit and miss (all of it was true).

    No, just an avid switcher and saver, though rates are now rubbish for most accounts :(.

    I am relying on switching bonuses to boost my returns now :).

    When I went into Santander yesterday, I moaned about the £5 fee and the drop in interest rate on the 123 account - apparently there is a 123 light account which gives the same money back for mortgage/utilities etc, without the interest. She gave me a number to ring to swap.

    She also gave me a number to ring to enquire into a mortgage change... I am still paying 5%

    I just sighed and said 'She didn't like them, I'm giving up buying things for her.'

    I had told DS2 to say he is a cross dresser and that the clothes don't fit him.... I think he will prefer your excuse!

    Do you remeber that random coloured wool? DS still pulls a fce when he comes across his school photo wearing a 'shades of green' home made v - neck jumper:rotfl:


    I do indeed. Rainbow knits or something... :rotfl:

    I have burned a lot of my old photos, just keeping a few from each year now. It's kinder for the descendants. :D
