    I WANT SOME!!!

    something i didn't stock up on, mostly because i knew it wouldn't last in this house, snack food and sweets.

    we have no junk food at all :eek:

    and omg i looked at dates for online grocery delivery, i can't get an order delivered for more than a week in advance :eek::eek:

    think i'll go ahead and put an order in and hope i can grab a few things from lidl when i finally do make it out of the house to argos to get my darned telly...whenever that may be.

    Feeling fed up and cold and what do I see, pics of my favourite sweetie:eek:
    And I've got no chocolate in the place except for 2 plain choc bars for making xmas mint gift things with and I hate plain choc anyway:mad:

    I've had enough of snow/ice/cold now.

    I've moved to the caribbean in my head for the winter :D still £50k short though, even if I ebayed the entire contents of my home it wouldn't come to that.
    I've discovered that for less than my flat is worth I could buy a 2 bed really cute beach front place

    winter preps if I lived there:
    suntan lotion,
    sunglasses,
    hat,
    swimwear,
    That's more my style:cool:

    Now how to earn a living there?...goes off wishful thinking whilst snuggled under fleece, knitting warm socks:cool:

    Annie instead of knitting socks you could weave sunhats or fans!

    No snow here, but it's -7 and bone cold, it's like waliking into a meat locker outside.
    We haven't had much snow at all thankfully, just hard frosts, freezing rain ( that was interesting!) and fog, some fog and a little more fog.

    Hope you don't get too much of the white stuff.
