    It's very tempting.... I think what I'll do is wait till I have enough Amazon vouchers without adding any money to them; shouldn't take too long, with all the online surveys I do.:o

    I had rather a productive day yesterday. Most unlike me :rotfl:
    Managed to declutter a load of toys and books for the kids. Some going to CS, some I shall sell. Bit limited to what I can sort out until conservatory is built. Sounds like an excuse but our wardrobe is chock full of computer printer and craft stuff. Need a sideboard to store these items in to free up the wardrobe a bit more but don't have anywhere to put a sideboard until the conservatory is built. Am leaving the organisation of this in the hands of H. I attempted to sort it a few months ago and it was a mare so he can deal with it :D

    Want to go through my meal plans, some recipes I never cook as they don't sound appealing so may as well remove.

    I also need to go through my seed packets and work out what needs germinating and when. Was massively behind last year and don't want a repeat performance :eek:

    Need to source a large 2012 calendar. The one I bought last year was a family one so everyone had their own column and cost me the princely sum of 99p :T need to try and source another one as we can function without a calendar :eek:

    Well, the £15 Amazon voucher I've been awaiting from Toluna showed up today, making me a total of £95 and a bit of change in credit with Amazon..... so I ran the whole issue past Mr LW (yeah, I still can't spend money on myself without his approval, even when it's not actual money, it's vouchers earned by doing b-o-r-i-n-g surveys).... but anyways, the good news is *fanfare* I've ordered a Kindle! :T:T:T:rotfl:

    So i had £50 Xmas money burning a hole in my pocket. Had planned to make it stretch as far as possible on various accessoriesmso I've ended up blowing the lot on a pair of boots in the M&S sale :o
    In my defence they are suede and I was very :money: they had 25% off the £85 price tag and I found a code for a further 10% off :j
    Final figure came in at £5 over my budget. No delivery charges as I had them delivered to local store :D


    Planning a low key NYE, don't really get the fuss about the end of the year, I like the new start but I tend to find there is a bit of a come down aftern Xmas :o
    So the parental units aka mum and dad are coming round tonight, be a miracle if I can stay awake til midnight with the kids sleeping like the are at the moment :eek:

    Anyway all that's left is for me to wish you all a very happy new year and I hope 2012 is a healthy and prosperous year :D

    :D Don't worry, I shan't; I need my specs to read, and they steam up in the bathroom; also Mr LW is always around if I have a bath, in case I get in difficulties.;)

    Well done on the boots Bitsy.:T

    Well, it just remains for me to wish all the Brassic-ers (Brassicas??:p:D:D) a very happy, healthy and peaceful New Year. :beer:
