Enjoyed seeing you both too, DD loves her presents, thank you so much.

Glad my directions were ok, was worried you'd end up in central Totton, which wouldn't have been very exciting!! lol

Morning all, have been to Somerfield already to avoid the manic rush, and they charged me 3.49 for wine gums that were on offer for 1.75 :mad: :mad: Can't be bothered to go back, kind of defeats the purpose of going early to avoid the crowds :rolleyes:

I've made a list of jobs for today and its getting longer by the minute Will report back later when I'm, no doubt, more frazzled

Morning.... surely it's against the law to make a list on Xmas Eve?? lol

Have a fab day... I've been out already to drop OH home so he can catch the train back after being down the pub, off out soon. Hope we can sit down at some point to chill.

Happy Christmas Eve xxx

Keep your receipt and go back and complain after Christmas. Or ring them up and complain over the phone?

Have a Happy Christmas Eve :T

I had to go out and get a bottle bag, so nipped back to Somerfield and got that sorted Have wrapped up all the parcels that need delivering, just got ds's to do but that will have to wait till tonight when he's asleep

I seem to be doing quite well so far with my list, must dash, have shedloads more to do :rolleyes:

I've just spent another 50.00 on Lakelands sale BUT ... its 3 x xmas pressies for next year and 3 x birthday pressies. One is for my nan who is impossible to buy for, so am pleased I won't have to worry about that one again I added up my normal budget for these people and it would come to about 55.00, but these look like really nice gifts without me going over budget. Time to go and update next years present planner :rolleyes:

Evening all Hope you all had a nice xmas, ds has gone to his dads now and I've got a friend arriving in about half an hour for the weekend. I coud do with a nice rest really but I know I'll enjoy it when they're here.

We had a great xmas, the diets well and truly out the window at the moment. but I will get back into it soon

No idea where I'm at moneywise either, I did get the free tenner from WHills yesterday :T and I got 30.00 from my grandparents yesterday too, but we are going sale shopping tomorrow, so that could well disappear very quickly

I will be back soon with a big list no doubt, but for now I'm off again!
