            Good Luck Cornball 
 Thanks OliveOyl. I spent £85 including Boots lunch meal deal. 
 It could have been much worse. So, many shiny, lovely things... I would advise anyone going to NOT take their credit card. Cash or debit card (with limited funds) only.
 I did return a £20 item I didn't need so at least that helped. Or so I tell myself! 0 0
