    Oh no not posh at all although some peeps think we are because we live in Oxfordshire. It is big at 12ft but just a intex splasher pool that I got a bargain on a couple of years ago. Great for keeping the kids entertained but a pain to maintain.

    Thanks she should be. I was really relieved to see her the other day.

    Spends £13.50 Mum....£13.50 all in one powder...£5 photos...£1.50 parking and the biggie £108 in M&S on a new suit, blouse, bra and nightie with dressing gown.The latter three items in the sale but not the suit unfortunately.

    Fingers crossed that the interview will be good news :)
