    Thanks Fae, I'm pretty sure today will be an NSD, shops will be shut when I finish work (one good thing about working Sundays I s'pose!!) have ordered a book for my Kindle but it was one of the free ones smiley-happy088.gif

    Thanks Belle, fairly busy at work but I've got my days off after today. Only 3 though as I'm coming in Friday as they're short staffed and having Sunday off instead which suits me better anyway.

    No NSD today due to ordering a pretty purse with a dog on from John Lew|s this morning and that is not my fault at all, other members on here are a bad influence :rotfl: OH told me to order it though.
    Going to have a look for stuff to ebay while I'm on my days off so hopefully I'll make the money back:A

    Only an hour to go :T

    Thanks Fae, I'm normally better at treating other people than me. I love buying people presents :o

    Hi MM, hope your're ok?
    I absolutely adore bacon & mushroom butties, so this is something I'm quite proud of :D

    Morning Sista, I want it to be here now :rotfl: Probably have another 4 or 5 days to wait though because I went for the cheaper delivery option! But I want it now!! Downside of internet shopping :(

    Found out I get 5% off at Am azon with my NUS card on certain :T which I can use now even though I haven't physically got my card yet. This is fab for me as I spend a lot of money there, just have to make sure I don't just buy things for the sake of it.

    At a funeral today, so I better get ready in a mo.

    Hope everyone has a lovely day:)

    Sorry to hear you are going to a funeral.

    Great news on the Amazon discount, so good when you can get a discount at a place you like. Hope the purse arrives soon, do you sit in wait for the postman each day :rotfl:
