Good morning Shaun, glad to see you are getting organised with the Christmas shopping! For me a trip to Sainsburys to use up all the Nectar points collected since last Christmas is on the cards......should be a few quid off there as I shop there about once a month, using Tesco or Aldi in between. Will take son into town tomorrow morning to sort out his Christmas present shopping - if it is fine, dry and not blowing a hooley out there......not sure how to spell hooley, I think it is originally an Irish term is it not?
Sympathise re swine flu jab, my arm hurt for 3 days afterwards, but as I work with very sick people I am glad of the protection........Have a good day!
