    Second of all...Surely a girl would need as many handbags as shoes - as many as she can possibly squeeze into her house without blocking any fire exits:rotfl:

    Oh.... I keep mine next to the exit just in case there's an emergency & I need to get them out quickly :o

    Ah! Good tip - I'll be rearranging mine this evening!!!:rotfl:

    Stuart - I hope you make sure that your poor DW has enough handbags to accommodate your 'stuff' - I'm sure she feels strongly about the line of your suit!!!:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: I guess you chaps just don't get handbags...I on the other hand don't get driving around a circuit for hours on end (although woo hoo! to Lewis!!!:T :T :T )!

    I'm off to look at my spreadsheet in a mo...I'm hoping it's going to look healthier than I think...:rolleyes:

    Deary me! I couldn't find myself...it has been a long time!:o

    Well...not much is happening here. My cheap sensible month has been, er...not cheap or sensible! Infact I have spent a fortune!!:eek: I have had fun though!:D

    I do need a new washer/dryer soon - bit of bad timing there! Unfortunately, also can't make any more OPs this month, which is a shame, but hey ho!

    Anyhoo...hope all is well for you all.

    You should be in the driving seat for the purchase of washer/dryer in the present situation, do a few phone calls and don't forget your local independent if they are part of the Euronics group; a very larger buyer. Recommend you start looking serious next weekend then push on the final Saturday this month for discounts as the stores reach "end of month" and may need the sale.

    Good luck
