    Hi Seaxwyn!! Good to see you again!

    The little skiers are very tired, but happy. How come they have seemingly brought back far more than a week's worth of dirty washing though :confused:

    Car boot sale.....hmmm....well.....no excuse.....just didn't do it. Have got a big ebay project going on though and have been very busy!

    No El, not sad at all - does go to show though that the best things in life really are free! (well, until we pledge money to the rebuild MSE fund, that is!).

    True friends have been well missed these last few days! Even those of us that have managed to keep in touch have only managed to do so infrequently. The guys at PTS were great though, and I think I will go back and visit, but boy does it feel great to be back here!

    Plus, I can rant again about the fact that I spent £38 on DS's school shoes today!! Bloody expensive!! That is my whole new food budget (see, I haven't had chance to mention new budgets this weekend) blown right out of the water :mad:

    Oh good you're all back.
    Was a bit of a nasty shock earlier to return from my travels to find the site MIA
    I had a fab weekend except for the personal injury claim I now have against National Express-must go do a search for that. One very swollen knee and a £63 rail fare was NOT in this weekend's plans-however the friends I caught up with and the lovely Donny made up for it

    Clarks! Aargh! I must spend hundreds of pounds there each year.

    One particularly galling thing is that twins are entitled to a 10% discount on Clarks shoes- but in 13 years as a parent of twins I have never got round to joining TAMBA, the twins association that gets you the discount.

    Elantan, I have just learned your 'real' name on Facebook, and it made me feel weird! You can't have two names! You are Elantan!

    does it cost to join Tamba? If not, then make it a task to join there this week.......remember what the book says!!

    A 10% saving is not to be sneezed at - that would give you a free pair of shoes each year!
