    awww :) * feels all warm & snuggly at so many of fave peeps' green lights being on* ... or maybe I'm being enveloped by gordon again.

    Quick post before I dash to kitchen for refill ...

    sorry to hear about people's losses :( its' kack at this time of year.

    sarah - am with you on the sales, I only went into clarks & boots & that was enough. I am an early morning shopper myself, loathe crowds & people with screaming brats in buggies :mad:. Why on earth would any parent assume that spending time strapped into an uncomfortable wheeled prison at knee & shopping-bag-in-the-head-height is an enjoyable trip for a toddler :confused:

    !!!!!! you evil tormentors, take them to a park or stay in Mac bluddy Donalds :mad::mad::mad:. It's not fun, it's cruelty & if you insist on stuffing sweets & crisp in their mouths to shut them up then yes, at some point they are going to go hyper or be sick :doh:duh :rolleyes:.


    *Takes deep breath*

    Wellies sarah ... for fun & non pricey ones I would head to ebay. I seem to remember you are the same size as me & believe me there are loads to choose from :)

    Off to refill on gin & peanuts ...

    The plan where you will finally get what you truly want - new clothes can't change your life. And it doesn't have to be boring .We need to think up cheap ways to have fun!

    Amen to that! :p

    And as for everyone having an unfun 2010, just think how good it will be when you can buy shoes/make-up/clothing/aston-martins (I wish :rolleyes: ) with the interest off your savings and investments.

    Aaaahhh... that will be the life :D
