    I don't normally but I will buy some specially :)

    Sx
    If you don't normally then don't worry about it - it's quite pricy for marge :D

    Some kind person will take pity on me - we have three tubs of the stuff to use before I can buy more. It was 3 for £5 in Asda :T

    I have drunk half a bottle of Bucks Fizz tonight. Woo, bubbles :o

    Where's the code on the packet? Perhaps I can open some up at work ;)

    If it's the margarine then it's printed on the foil inside the lid :D

    I don't think I appreciated how much stuff I would get if I spent £27 on card making gubbins on sale. (Much of it was 25-75p!)

    Photo evidence below...

    All of the general gubbins.

    All the paper stuff.

    I want to play with it!! More photos shall be posted once I have made some cards, you can all have a look and offer advice! Tomorrow I shall buy glue and then there shall be no stopping me :D

    Do you do the rubber stampy stuff with coloured ink thing? Cos the DDs were given some and smoe ink but its far too technical for them. Think the stamps are X-massy things and Easter bunnies. PM me your address and I'll bung 'em in the post if you can use them.

    Morning all!

    Kitchen looks like a bomb has hit it due to the delights of entertaining last night. That is going to go on my list of things to do!

    I have some Ebay auctions ending in 20 minutes, so I will wander up to Asda with my parcels and see what bargains I can find. I saw on the groceries board that Smart Price mince was 40p. It's rubbish, but will do for bolognaise etc if I drain the fat. Hopefully they have 50p milk too. Currently Ebay is sitting at £21.01 in sales for this week, which is nothing to be sneezed at.

    My current account looks sad this morning as the money for the Travelodge has come out and the money to pay for it hasn't arrived :rotfl:

    On the plus side, my savings account has received its interest of £20.42 which is a reasonable amount. Once Monday comes I can withdraw the lot and punt it into my ING account (Monthly interest pleases me!) but make sure that I pay off the Christmas spending first.

    Once that's done it's bye-bye to the Ipoints credit card and HULLO to my new Tesco one with all its points-earning glory. I'm also going to close the Barclaycard too. The new Tesco card has been given a limit of £3,000 though, which I definitely don't need. I'm going to ask them to reduce it to £1,500. This is enough of a cushion for emergencies and means I don't have loads of available credit showing on my file.

    Right, 15 minutes till the Ebay auctions end. I'm going to dig out the [strike]tat[/strike] quality merchandise I'm selling and look for my jiffy-bag stash. But first, more coffee....
  • Just checking in to let you know I'm still reading, I still love your posts, and you still never fail to make me chuckle!!!!

    Hi Floozie!

    Not made coffee yet - as soon as I hit submit Cat #2 jumped on my knee and isn't moving....
