- [STRIKE]go to Hobbycraft with a friend- a real test of MSE-strength, haven't been since my LBM. Must resist beautiful crafty temptation!

That's us i think!

Morning all.

Took youngest son to the library for their storytime session, and now i'v sorted out our reading material for the next few days for free
Big shop was at aldi, only visiting Sainsburys for the stuff that they dont have in aldi
Stuck rigidly to my shopping list, except for one box of honey nut shredded wheat that was half price in Sainsburys. I didnt realy need it, as I've got other cereals in the cupboard, but it seemed silly to let it pass by at that price.
Checked online banking
Washing out on the line taking advantage of the relatively nice day we're having
Going swimming later with the boys

Have a great weekend everyone
