    Lovely waving smiley!
    Its only cos I have three kids that I get them I think.

    Have not reported all my ebay activities but I have 24 items listed and sold another this morning.

    Did spend £4 on scrunchies. How I wish I had kept them from last time they were in fashion!!

    Im not a fan of shopping either though I do adore Lidl!

    Just asked the back lady to come out to ponyplops since something is causing her discomfort. Might be walking her like a big dog today.

    Hi Al - yep a big fan here of Mr L's - although it is only recently that i've been able to start shopping there again. Have you any recommendations for things they have in all the time? :)

    Hope pony is ok and not in too much discomfort ((hugs))

    Thanks Dedicated.
    Their coffee in black jars is better than nescafe alta rica and less than half the price. Two baguettes for £1 if yours has a bakery. Potato salad is fab and the pots make great food storage-dishwash and go in the freezer. Nappies and unscented wipes are ace. Hazelnut croissants...baby tomatoes...continental cheese.

    Been outside most of today doing things like planting wildflower seeds (pony safe) and sieving compost. Happy day.

    A buxom young blonde woman in a lime green t shirt just appeared on MFP saying "hey wanna chat".
    I would like to think its one of my MSE buddies because if not I am majorly freaked out.

    Or me. I do fit that description but would never say 'wanna'. Standards.
    Paid off mortgage nine years early in 2013. Now picking and choosing our work to fit in with the rest of our lives!
    Still thrifty though, after all these years:D

    Me too. And not lime green either. Vulgar :D.

    Al, I think you've pulled :rotfl:
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    I don't think it can have been me. I do not type "wanna", and I am not young or buxom or blonde; my t-shirt, although green, is not lime. I am definitely a woman, though, but I suspect that's not enough to conclude that it was me. ;)
