  • Evening all,

    had a great Xmas in the Stunty household (thanks for your good wishes Jess). We spent a great hour laughing at The Royale Fmily on Xmas Day. Fantastic fun.

    Spent part of today in John Lewis Sparky, hope your Mrs wasnt the one I saw getting hassled by some rude person....

    A very successful day everyone, 3p for me from outside of Currys, not a lot, but I'm happy enough! :jHi there Pips Mum still hanging on to that little sweetheart then, though as Sarellie advises you could think of a hot curry, then a drive down a lane with plenty of pot-holes..perhaps? :rolleyes: :eek: Second thoughts, leave it to nature and let it come when ready :A. .....Sarellie, it's wonderful to see you bring your little girl up with the value of money, she'll thank you for it later. Good for Grandad too!!! :T........Glad you and Mrs S had a lovely time together Sparky, you too I hope Stunty.

    Keep up the saving folks!!!

    End of the week so 1€35 from me :j. Only one shopping trip but I managed to spend the budget and then some :rolleyes:, thankfully it was mainly on store cupboard stuff.

    I hope everyone had a great Christmas - I had Christmas lunch out which was lovely, 9 courses spread over 5 hours :D. Another Xmas and also another birthday done, so older but not sure about the wiser bit yet :beer:
