    Hello Spud!
    Pepe and Elfen,to be fair,DH is frantically trying to stem a leak in guest bathroom...before he arrives! Pipes spraying water everywhere so he has gone off to Plumbers merchants (twice!) for parts,so not lazy...actually,no-one could ever describe DH as lazy..he's a workaholic in fact!

    And Sammy,I obviously meant roast porK..(although it's cold enough for port...)right,gotta fly and tidy up...at least pianos over....it was a real toughy today.
    Debt-free...and staying that way...

    What do people think of this for a christening...a bit much perhaps. They do it in cream as well.

    buy it Spud, you can guarantee it will be out of stock again at the weekend.

    sammy i wouldnt say to over the top for a chistening, got to remember as well that no one will be looking at you as they will all be looking at the baby

    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 don't think it's too much for a christening. I think it's lovely.

    Sorry Butti I didn't mean to pry.

    .

    Don't worry. I think you were just saving the others a job.

    I've just signed the consent form, which was horrific. How long is the queue for a guide dog?
    Before I was :eek:
    Now I'm :eek::eek::eek: with bells on
    Although the surgeon says the form covers everything and I'm having a minor procedure. 7 minutes long so I think I'll sing Bohemian Rhapsody to myself.

    Butti~I could vet him if you like?

    I don't think he's got worms :rotfl:
    Thanks but really he seems very nice. He backed off in Brussels because I forgot to put ex- or previous or former or something infront of boyfriend. He's coming across as a gent, and nobody who knows him has sidled up with tales of axes, stalking or cross dressing (other than a kilt - no don't ask that question!!!)
