    You are not leading me astray are you? I really do have enough shoes I really do.....:o

    I think it was really lucky I picked September to go, as I'm starting with almost nothing, don't think my camping gear would look quite right :rotfl:, the hotel I am going to it's expected you dress up for dinner so I have managed a couple of dresses for around a tenner each. :D Have had to help DD3 get kitted out too as she has never been abroad either. :eek:

    DD2 is well travelled so she has not had to start from scratch just add to which hopefully will be the position I will be in next time. ;)

    Thats what i usually do add bits, as alot of things dont get worn here.

    But do seem to have kept adding bits then more this year, but done now hopefully.
    Its nice that your going with your daughters,sure you will all enjoy.

  • Hello Chaps,

    I am pleased that I have crossed a few things off my to do list today. (Can't seem to get motivated to do anything at the moment).

    Took DS2 all the way to M&S for school shoes this afternoon. It was only when we got there, that he announced that he didn't need new shoes! He had a uniform check on his test day at his new school, and the Deputy Head told him his shoes were OK. :mad:

    Dragged him around Costco as a punishment!!!!!! (Pizza slice and Fanta is not really punishment though!). :rotfl:

    No Elite shopping today. No wombles or bargains. :(

    Will be stocking up on Pot Noodles tomorrow though!

    I hope they don't think we are all paw sniffers. :p

    I really must do sloppyties, I still have not downloaded the app. I will be in trouble with one of my MSE friends. I promised I would by next time we met. :o She is usually down for the airshow but has work commitments this time so I am let off the hook a bit longer.

    my shopping from today no glitches just split my shopping thanks to Savvy Sal who mentioned the pizza was comparing, this was my first pizza this time round, when I was putting it in the freezer noticed it did not have the promotion on the box i picked up :rotfl:
    maybe it is a sign not to get any more pizzas
