    Morning Folks..hope we've come thru the night with only tap water entering the house :o I can't imagine how those poor people must be feeling after the floods sorry-face-smiley-emoticon.gif
    Anyone else feel like slapping news reporters & retail management yesterday, urging us all to spend? I do wish they would shut-up-smiley-emoticon.gif & show a bit of compassion for folk going thru a difficult time, be it imposed by Mother Nature or mps; there are too many wishing they were there with the money to spare, without mega-salary numbskulls telling us to 'spend, spend, spend'.
    Aaaand (I musta woken up in a moany mood :D ) why leave broadcasting tv programmes showing folk how to do crimbo on a budget, till it's too bluddin late to do anything beating-head-against-the-wall.gif Mind, that one who has "a hhays in Divin" has some weird concepts of making your own--I reckon 4tnum & Mays $ons would be cheaper that what she produces :rotfl:--& it's all well & good if you have access to those wonderful haberdashery stores & artisans, but most of us live in the real world Luv!

    Ooooooo..that felt gooooooooood..I'm OK now I've had a moan :o
    ..wonder if I was one of them wimmin who sat knitting next to the guillotine on a previous life big-grin-smiley-emoticon.gif

    To business! Sweet 16 is celebrating as we speak open-mouth-smiley-emoticon.gif...Don't tell Igor; he'd be sooo upset he wasn't asked to cater :( bessim...

    Hi all - hope everyone is managing to stay warm & dry in this awful weather we're getting. Feel so sorry for so many people who are getting flooded out yet again.
    No NSD's to report - keep needing small important items ;) BUT lovely lad in M**isons on the voucher desk made up my stash to the required 8 so I got a £30.00 voucher instead of £25.00. He was keeping all the extra unused & making the tally up for everyone. I'm sure he wasn't supposed to do it - but what a lovely lad & yes I did tell him so!
    Merry Christmas everyone & all the best for a happy & healthy New Year
    Small victories - sometimes they are all you can hope for but sometimes they are all you need - be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle
  • NSD 13 yesterday for me. :) Have bought everything I need for Christmas (and beyond) now, so hoping to get a good few more NSDs this month. :)
    A waist is a terrible thing to mind.
