How true. First time in seven years that we've scored five goals away, first hat trick in five years, biggest win away since we joined the League.... need I go on? :rotfl:
Ah well, such is life. I saw them win at Exeter last week and I will see them win against Bournemouth in four weeks time so no problems....:T0 -
As if


I was actually pleased they won as Leyton Orient are the team behind us in the league, and as we yet again didn't manage a win today I was pleased to see them lose

Morning all, so ds having an early night was clearly not a good idea, he was wide awake by 4 this morning
which also meant the dog and I were awake too, so much for a lie-in this weekend :cool:
He's had breakfast and is now watching a dvd, I made coffee and have got back into bed, its way too early to be up on a sunday.
Have any of you sent me a friend request on f/b? Just that I received one last night and have no idea who it is!
So todays plans, when I finally wake up properly, are to do the food shopping, do the ironing, ds to do his homework, return the dog to mums and not much else

Thanks Chev, hopefully it will give me a bit of a kick to get going again

This new tesco offer looks amazing, basically if you find stuff that is cheaper in asda then they refund you double the difference, up to £20 per day, total £100 per calendar month. Off to try and get my first £20 today, then will be going again each day until the end of March, basically by comparing their website with Asda you can see what to get and cna get £20 of shopping and then basically get it refunded, time to stock up me thinks

Sounds like a plan. Wish we had something like this over here. Grocery shopping is so expensive as a proportion of your income now.

Back from tescos, spent £28 on normal shopping, then another £28 on dtd stuff, picked up more than needed lol, and should get £20 voucher back for that lot. It included a 50 wash box of Persil, a kg tub of vanish oxi stuff, 2 sure deodorants, a big bottle of herbal essences conditioner and some biscuits
Can't wait to go again tomorrow now

Todays tasks with a nod to mfw:- tesco dtd

For the rest of this evening I need to:

), print off ds homework, and then have an early night
