    Morning all

    Chucking down with snow here today.

    Got a bargain in Toys R Us yesterday, got a megabloks pull along pirate ship for £14, save £10. Its really big and Pip is going to love it. OH and I also had a breakfast in Frankie & Bennies got 2 full breakfasts and 3 coffees for £10! Really yummy, recommend it to anyone, the breakfasts alone were £8.50 each!!

    Taking Pip to see Santa in a little while, hope he isnt like these kids!!

    OMG I must have been psychic!!! Pip got scared when he had to walk into the darkened room to Santa and started screaming and crying!
    We went into The Entertainer toy shop and found Pip a Iggle Piggle dress up set for a fiver, he will love it.

    In the nicest of ways, glad you have a date for Pap, and the inquest can take its own pace at a later date xx

    Ha ha ha can you tell I am off work? Posts everyday!!

    Ive done my menu plan up until end of Dec, if I get a chance later will go through to end of Jan. I hate menu planning and put it off most weeks so I want to go back to doing it monthly. Going to do some batch cooking tomorrow, wicked witch MIL is visiting and taking OH and Pip out for OHs birthday.

    Have a good day all x x

    Will you post your menu plan? I'm lacking inspiration at the moment..
