    Halloween Knitting nearly done - so Monday I can start on the November knitting :rotfl:

    Well we all need hats, scarves and gloves for the NSD bonfire party, plus if you could knit us some fireworks too that would be awesome :D

    NSD #11 here today. Toddled about and did some food shopping (visited L!dl, Tacto and Sainsbobs, oh then back to L!dl to get some 1/2 price turkey breast steaks.) Prob spent a bit more than planned but did try and pick up some useful bargains like 2 x 4 tin packs of tuna in sainsbobs for £5. Hopefully that means we're quite well stocked up with options for the month. Came out of the grocery budget hence the NSD.

    Hope you're all having a good weekend.

    I got myself some nightmare before christmas jewelery for £1

    and today I did some christmas shopping.
    £40 worth but was worth it since pretty much all the females and 1 male is sorted. I am so behind this year!

    You think you're behind? I haven't even started!

    I've started but nowhere near finished and no idea what OH wants. On the other hand, i have one present already sorted for next xmas (that's xmas 2015 :p)

    Had a day today of doing those 'little things' - finished our front door (needed to touch up round the door lock after unearthing it from layers of paint due to someone less precise with a paint brush to say the least), painted a bit of the fence we couldn't get to last year (now accessible thanks to the wind pulling the clematis off), and then put some new hooks in the fence (rather than a selection of random screws) to tie the clematis back up again (used old tights - tip from a gardening programme I saw)

    Oh and squeezed in a run this morning.
