I completely forgot Elf was on:( although I did opt for this time to go to the retail park for the shower, and it was lovely and quiet:T
I do like cheese and toast though HDK - the veggie rogan josh was far to spicy for me so only had a very small portion.
Only 2 sleeps until IKEA:D:D:DFebruary13 - £74990 (or thereabouts)

I have managed to spend just over £40 in the supermarket, and have appeared to have returned with very little food:eek: I feel a scrutiny of the receipt is in order (although a few toiletries were purchased). I will have to work out how many meals I can eeek out from this shop...and the worst thing is!!!! I FORGOT to buy baking potatoes:eek::eek::eek::eek:
I seem to have spent so much lately, on Christmas presents, snow boots (hello???!!! where is the snow I was promised???!!!!), gloves, mega grocery shopping without managing to buy much food, a jacket, and the LBR needs some petrol AND I have my beloved IKEA to get to......
Why amn't (is that a word?) more like tilly or unhappy shopper or ammonite or half the peeps on here:oFebruary13 - £74990 (or thereabouts)
