    Good bargains, our woolworths has only junk left, but I feelguilty going in there, when all the employees are unemployed by the end of the week.
    my dd is 11, been at nannies for 2 days, spoilt rotten, and returned a brat! She has just calmed down, and quite (only that she in playing her DS).
    At least I can comp with my fav programs on, I am pleased with myself on 28th dec now, never been this far ahead before.
