    Did your sandwich toaster come from L1dl? We have a beloved Bifinet, was £4.99 from there in 2008 and still gets used heavily in the winter :)

    It did.

    I refrained from purchasing a brush cutter for £99.

    A petrol one. Amazing price. DH would have killed me.

    Cant find my grocery challenge to update it but I think I am at 263/400.

    Money. Hmnn 5/10
    Health and fitness. 2 hours with ponyplops and puppylove.7/10
    Work. 0/10 as it should be on a Saturday.
    Family. 8/10 because I confronted some tantrums which needed doing.

    Awww love the dog :) (Is that the dyed sofa?)
    Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

    In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!

    Beautiful dogs Ed. Good choice.

    That sofa is dyed but it is before rather than after tarting up.

    There was a beautiful little terrier on FB yesterday from local animal sanctuary, he's been there since last year as he was mangy when he came in so not a 'looker'. It was all I could do to not jump in the car and claim him :(. Here he is. :(.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Poor wee scamp. I noted the comment re. 'can be left for up to 2 hours'. *This* is why we don't have a dog :eek:
