    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    But this does answer my next question!

    Will there be a second date?

    :T:T:T:T:T

    ......funny you should ask that- there was indeed a second date as I didnt epilate my legs for first date:rotfl::rotfl:

    the second date was as amazing as the first, still had not epilated:D

    the third date made me wonder if I had hit gold, really nice man

    after a few weeks of thinking this might go somewhere I decided to epilate (as stated previously NEVER do this on the day :eek:)

    which brings us on to the debate - is s e x that important ?

    Am I the only one to struggle when muggle shopping ... I still end up checking MSM and generally batch my shop against competitors if a chance of a comparison. You know you are losing it when you scan items like 10p noodles (now 20p - how is that for price inflation this year?) to ensure the best match :o.

    Morning mad squad,

    I feel your pain anon, I also struggle to muggle.
    I do try to keep up but sometimes life gets in the way.
    I'm just a penny short of a pound. Peace and Love.

    Morning all

    Weekend off to get some serious Xmas organising done. Head all over place as we were burgled on weds morning on broad daylight.

    Smashed double glazed patio door and stole lots of electronics, jewellery and Xmas presents. B*******s

    Hope people are having a better time

    Thats rubbish, so sorry to hear it. Was announced this week that home office funding for the police is being reduced by £299 MILLION. can only imagine what that will do to crime figures, not to mention us poor, already overworked officers. Worrying times ahead.

    Morning all :D

    Just been to do the last "big shop" before I go on Christmas Eve for milk/bread/pigs in blankets.

    I went to M's as it's not as busy as Asda/Tesco at this time of year (normally) and grabbed the vouchers they had sent me as I planned to give one to someone to use on my way out - "I won't get close to £50 to get money off" I thought.

    At checkout my total was £49.04 :rotfl: I grabbed a big pack of gum to get me to £50.03 and then used my £8 off a £50 spend and a £5 M&M voucher I'd printed off this morning, so I saved £13 :j

    My shopping would have been cheaper elsewhere apparently, so I also got 4690 points for that (I didn't even think I'd bought anything that pricey!) meaning I'm now 50 points away from my next fiver.

    Not bad for a muggle shop :rotfl::rotfl:

    How many people will have had the same idea ... Go in early to avoid the crowds, thus busy earlier and quieter late :).

    Nope, likely to be a crazy day shopping with people buying food as though the world is going to end :eek:. Perspective people - most shops are closed for one day only.

    It always amazes me how people pile their trolleys sky high as though preparing for a siege - and then rush back in on Boxing Day and fill their trolleys all over again ! Qhat do they do with the mountains of food bought a couple of days earlier ?

    Yesterday there were everal people in the queue before me - and they all wanted to know if the store was open on Boxing Day (and it wasn't the Sale that they were interested in).
