    Skint, that's what I added to my basket too! :D

    Pap, what item is it - do you want me to try that particular item? Or don't you want to say? (Can PM if you prefer)

    my fault for not checking although it would have been a toss between putting money in the bank or getting gas and electric and gas and electric would have won anyways

    we've put loads in the gas meter in the last 7 days £15 on 1st £10 on the 5th and another £15 today!!!!!!
