    :beer:Good Morning Folks,

    Kerri, I hope bootcamp was painless, although if it's anything like the pain I am currently feeling from spin, I understand:mad:
    Well done to everyone grabbing NSDs at the minute and avoiding the sales (unless you really need it of course!):money:
    Thanks to ETO & Sazzie for the updates:T

    I've only just about stopped hurting....just in time for starting back at pole tonight.....
    Spendy day today, but sticking strictly to a budget so not too painful. Got 6 huge bananas reduced price at MR T, only 23 pence and good for another couple of days easily! Also 3 small tins evap milk for a quid, so they have been shoved in the cupboard for future puddings. And can recommend the tinned new potatoes, only 15 pence and good enough to use in recipes or as a side dish when you can't be arrised to peel real spuds.

    kerri - a posh new magenta kettle, hey? Very nice too!

    But......do you realise what that means? Prepare yourself for a shock, sit down, have a glass or six of whisky.....YOU WILL HAVE TO REDECORATE THE ENTIRE KITCHEN!!!!!

    :rotfl: thankfully our kitchen is neutral with silver appliances apart from my candy blue kmix (which I am still slightly in love with :o) so kettle looks ok in situ...does mean I'll have to keep the matching toaster though :D gosh, wasn't it a good job I ordered that kmix in the end and got the toaster and kettle 'free' :money:

    Well no NSD here, nothing earth shattering, just a few bits and pieces like new razors, deodorant and bread. Hopefully one tomorrow as feeling a bit stuck on numbers.

    Big hugs domna it's awful when you feel pressure by work in what is a stressful enough situation as it is xx we are here if you need to vent xx

    Well, good news is I didn't fall off the pole tonight, bad news is that I'm gonna have all kinds of aches tomorrow to replace the ones I've just got over.

    Oh, and meant to fess up earlier to a pair of shorts I won on fleabay, same as a pair I have still tagged....but in a size that might not cut off the blood supply to my toes :rotfl:paid a bit more than I had planned but I do like them and given they are a couple of seasons old, I prob won't see another pair. Will either sell the ones that don't fit, or give them to a friend who might be that size.
