    DGS was born last night :) Don't even go there re the roofing business. How many times does his consultant have to tell him he won't ever regain the balance to go roofing again. Not to mention not being able to drive, no vehicle, no tools, etc. Beam me up Scotty.

    Hello all

    Well I have been spending for England this past few days - baby things flowers for DSGF, holiday stuff and Mr SA has pestered me to death for a Gas Monkey tshirt (don't ask it's another one of his obsessions). Plus have a mixture of online grocery orders next week: Ocado tomorrow to take advantage of £15 of frozen food with £40 order, Sainsburys for the 25% off wine and Tesco for Mr SA's beer offer. Plus I've managed to break 3 pairs of sunglasses in 3 weeks AND my reading glasses arm has just fallen off. So need to get them fixed tomorrow at Boots hopefully before I go back to work. Don't know if anyone else has had trouble with Argos website today but it's been down all day - been trying to order a new lawnmower as old one has conked out - had no luck.

    So glad it's no work tomorrow.

  • had to google the t shirt :)

    and I also couldn't get on the Argos website. I did ponder it being hacked.........seems odd on a Bank holiday weekend.

    and I too am spending like a pro!

    Enjoy tomorrow :) XXX


    PS - fab food shopping savings. We are eating out of the freezer this week. Sausage rolls and potato waffles for lunch........
    Nevertheless she persisted.
