You know how I bump my gums from time to time about my OH? Well this time he's surpassed himself!
He's been saving odds and sods on the fly since the start of the year and has been hiding it in a tupperware box in his work locker.........so he could buy me a new laptop for my birthday.:o (My old one was a cheapo Dell from a Grabbit here years ago, and it now has loads of keys missing, it won't charge properly, it overheats, freezes etc etc.)
All the work that's been done on the house has wiped us out and he knows I would never have bought anything like this for myself so this was his way of trying to make sure I got one.
It's not quite my birthday yet but he saw something that he thought might do and there was hardly any left in the store so he gave me the box early so I could go buy the laptop now. (Obviously changed the money at the bank first, lol.)
I don't feel bad about Newcastle anymore. :rotfl:
Just thought I'd let you all know he's not all bad.
