    keep up the good work-I bet you all never thought you'd get this far.

    As they say" keep on giving up" or is it "don't give up on giving up"

    I'm having withdrawal symptoms :o
    DS bought some essential food item on Sunday (and paid for it, oh the joys of having grown up kids!) and I haven't bought anything since Friday. What will I do when I get to the shops again? :undecided Behave, I hope:rotfl:
