Hi
Still have the crispy £10 still in my wallet and i have even been out with DD's to the park and fed the ducks. Going swimming today at the local sports centre which is re opening today after they had a new ceiling fitted after the earthquake we had down here a few months ago. The best bit is that it is free for today and they are having a pool party. No cost involved :j
Hope you all have a good day
