Wooo hooo Tescos has just been with 18 bottles of wine - hic lol. So far I have got 30 bottles of wine - working out at £3.70 a bottle I love moneysaving! I did a quick tot up of beer/cider/soft drinks today. Based on today's prices and offers we're looking at £360 for all our drinks. £90 less than my budget - very happy with that - especially when I've got so much planned - 178 glasses of wine, 158 bottles/cans of beer, 48 bottles of cider, 226 beakers of fizzy pop drinks, and loads of squash. 384 alcoholic drinks (8 drinks per adult/drinker). Plenty! (I hope!)

LauraL- thats a shame you couldnt give notice, at least your oh could so thats one thing done.

Oh Im glad it isnt just me that gets told im adopted!! (although me and one of my sisters are so similar I know im ok!!):rotfl:

LauraR- they look fab.

OH wants to paint the stems silver and the put the glitter on them :)x

MrsDrink

Oh they are fab LauraR! So simple but yet so effective - love the striking blue with the silvery numbers contrasting! They will be really easy to spot for your guests

laurarobby

thank you

my OH is starting to have more input now just little ideas but its nice, i was going to paint the numbers on then he found these to paint and stick on( so much neater) and he said he "wanted" to go into hobby craft with me :-0

MrsDrink

That is brilliant!!

PinkPrincess83

Goodmorning everyone

LauraR- They look fab, and I do agree with your other half, painting them silver will just finish them off.

Im back to work tomorrow and really wish I wasnt! Its been so nice just chilling with my oh its going to be such a struggle to get up tomorrow morning!!

MrsDrink

Lol what are you doing being up and on here so early on a Sunday! And on the last day of your week off!
It doesn't feel like a weekend here. MrD was at work 9-5 yesterday so it was like a normal work day, and he's working at least the morning today - not expecting him home till around 2pm. And then he'll come home, collect his bike, take it to his dad's and give it a service ready for tomorrow night's track day and next weekend's races. Feel like I've hardly seen him!!

I have all my wine stacked up in the garage - lol looks like a right collection!! God knows where I'm going to store all the beer and cider as well lol. It was hard enough negotiating where I could put the wine - lol it's MrD's garage/workspace.

Right back to the garden - I've already mown the front and side lawns!

PinkPrincess83

For some annoying reason I was wide awake! It so doesnt feel like ive had a week off, a few days max! Why cant weeks at work go this quickly!?? ANd anyway, u must have been up mega early if youve done lots in the garden already! Im sure your garden will look fab by the time youve finished with it!

This time next year I will be home from honeymoon and will probably be doing all the washing!!
