sorry, beanie -I've never done yougov. Have you looked on the "up your income" board? There may be a thread on it about them?

Have done DS room, and the lounge and hall.....curry was acceptable, not fab - I ran out of basmati rice so had to use risotto rice

Hello hypno et al

going back a few pages (this thread turns over so quickly lol), have to report have a white stuff outlet (and a fat face too) just down the road from me. lucky Mrs R. however, have to say, ofetn you can see why it has found its way there.....but some real bargains. got a lovely navy shirt dress from FF few months ago, had tried on at full price in main shop, £47.50, mine for £8.50! and have worn it and worn it and worn it....

Mrs R

Yes, we have a full price fat face too :rolleyes: I wanna outlet shop, I wanna outlet shop **stomps feet like a spoilt brat**

In fact we have so many lovely shops near us.....it makes being skint really hard work sometimes!!

Today, though, I am teaming a primark £1 black tee with a vintage (read circa 1989) black cardi from C&A :rotfl:

Can't go wrong with plain black classics :cool:

No, no, no. What you meant to say was 'I decided to experiment by using risotto rice' :rotfl:

We have a posh bra factory shop near me (Rigby & Peller, Freya, Fantasie for £5 upwards) , plus a handbag shop where I buy all my overnight bags (have a bit of a thing about them. Have one for swimming, one for Ryanair, one for other airlines, one for two night stays, one for three night stays.....:o) plus you get Jane Norman bags for £5 and lovely leather bags for £50 :eek: down to £5. DD pinches my favourites though :rolleyes:

Primark is known as Primarni round our office :rotfl:

Great news on rebanding :T

Found source of mystery money - lovely OH had a win and wanted to surprise me. Told him to feel free to do it again!

Great news about the rebanding Hypno - when will you get your refund?

Put some money in a term deposit yesterday, 4.65% for 4 months which I was quite pleased with as I nearly did it on Monday when it was 4.15%.

Have a lovely sleep all, see you when you get up, I'm off to Uni today.

Glad to know it's not just where I work!

Well done on the Council Tax refund Hypno.

I baked brown soda bread and white normal bread today. The soda bread was gold medal standard, the white: useless! :rolleyes: It's my first time, so I'm proud of soda bread albeit the white recipie doesn't add up according to my mum, so I think I'll try a different one next time. Mum made gorgeous vegetable soup so I had soup and soda bread for dinner. It was all home-made so very :money:

Oh I am bleary eyed this morning......I hope I don't have a difficult day because I think my head is still in the land of nod :rolleyes:

Off to scratch and bank - I don't expect the council tax refund to come through for a few weeks, but it will be nice to see it, whenever it happens!
