sorry z, you're nowhere near the full package - my dad learnt to ride a motorbike, bought a convertible car with personal plate, bought an electric guitar, and is now looking online for a girlfriend from Russia. He really is the stereotypical mid life crisis!

Couple of Asda Puffins and my freezer is sorted - I bet Puffins come from the same production line as Penguins but are just in not so fancy wrappers as they look and taste identical!

Hehe - we were laughing at the Aldi cheap copy chocolate bars the other night - I like 'Roar' fake Lion bars :rotfl:

That's the best excuse for eating chocolate I've ever heard :rotfl:

Like the necklaces Claire, I love the colours of the first one.

Thankyou, well i thought they are cheap price wise cheerful colourwise, something to for everyones budget, i could have made beaded chains for the pendants but the price would have been bumped up then

I've also got fake Twix and fake Kit Kats in the fridge, not sure what they will taste like but they look the same!

Ames - your Dad wins the mid-life crisis award hands down!! Similar to my OH, although he seemed to be emerging from it when we met. He bought a crappy old 1983 Porsche when we first met (which now sits year on year on his drive doing nothing), just had to try to play the electric guitar his son wanted (he bought him one, presumably so he could say he wanted to have a go, haven't heard it mentioned for years now) and as I'm 12 years younger, I guess I'm the younger woman!!

Have picked B up from school, need to go and tidy the computer cabinet out upstairs as Ive sold it and they are collecting tonight. Then I shall cook supper for B and I, stick her in the bath then its wine o'clock and chatting

I've got an electric guitar, looking at convertible cars (I'll pass on the personal plates), looking at riding a motor bike (albeit I'll be getting an electric one). Not thought about the girlfriend from Russia though...

Shortlist of cars:

Honda S2000


Mercedes SLK


and as a slight concilliatory gesture to sensibleness...

Seat Ibiza Cupra

I'd love a Mercedes SLK.
