    Of course we'll keep Shawn away from you! :o

    Perhaps the taboo nature of the F word hadn't been made very clear....Enjoy the kippers and curry;it's left overs from the Christmas buffet,safely stored in Igor's reserve chamber pot.:eek:

    All this talk of sprout curry and manky kippers has kept me on track for a NSD (not there yet) as was about to cave and give in to the call of the vending machine, but my appetite is much reduced, so... erm... thank you all... kind of. :)

    That is hardcore!I don't include public transport (bus or tube) as a spend.I used to count train fares,but no longer,as it's essential.:)

    Today is definitely a spend day.I've even bought a few items on @mazon,which is a bit naughty.Hoping to get my 4-in-a-row over the coming days.
