    hahah sounds close to my plan for tonight since i am not going up to Derbyshire this weekend, main differences vodka and maybe fit in a little bit of gaming on the computer if i can be bothered,
    Drop a brand challenge
    on a £100 shop you might on average get 70 items save
    10p per product = £7 a week ~ £28 a month
    20p per product = £14 a week ~ £56 a month
    30p per product = £21 a week ~ £84 a month (or in other words one weeks shoping at the new price)

    I know that feeling:grouphug:

    you will get back into the swing of things soon xx

    Cider and a good book sounds quite tempting instead of spending a fortune at La Tasca then on to a noisy wine bar.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    Hubby's just called to say he has been given a bottle of wine from his boss so woohoo free drink for us tonight! Might make a curry since it'll make us feel like a wine and takeaway night,
    and a go on our (all second hand, very bargain) guitar hero :D once boy wonder is in bed.

    I've always been like it, even as a kid. Part of me can't ever quite believe I've been invited out of more than politeness...

    Cider, cheese and biscuits and book alone is much more fun than beer and teppanyaki with about 20 people right

    Yes Cider, cheese and biscuits and a book is much better than something that I had to look up......we're so backwards down this end of the country I didn't know what teppanyaki was.

    Actually talking about it has triggered a memory of being grudgingly invited to a birthday party by the girl next door. I was told it was party frocks but when I got there they were all in jeans and tshirts etc to play outside and I felt a right twit. I did go home and change but there was a lot of whispering and laughing at me about it in school the next day:(

    Is it bad that I was thinking 'yes'? :o

    Len, not sure what you think, and and noooo idea what you think I think...but whatever it is, I think....errr....I dunno.....what do I think again?

    Glad you are okay, but I think you think I think something that I don't think.

    I think.
