Well done fedup and anyone else who managed to bring nothing in all weekend :T:T
We didn't do so well as we bought some new bits for the garden, including a parasol for the garden table, but these are all dealt with, built etc and in the garden (apart from parasol which is back in the house) and all the rubbish is in the garage - trip to the cardboard bank at the tip this week I think.
Also in food shop for BBQ with friends and had leftovers last night so most of that is gone already.
