thank you for making me feel old!! hahaha p.s... u haven't lived if you've never played sonic on the sega megadrive!!! perhaps u should hunt one down to add to your collection of old electronics! :rotfl: x x

Well said :T

The young un's of today!!! :rotfl:

lisylou21

Trips for 2 - As a single mum, even if I did find someone to go with, I wouldn't have any childcare.

Holidays abroad - terrified of flying

Anything to do with cars or pets - I don't have any of them

A spring clean - They would pass out at sight of my house :rotfl:

A personal chef - my oven is on the way out, and again, the house isn't in the best shape

Anything to do with weddings - again because I'm single

Overnight stays - usually too far to be worth it where I live on the isle of wight and don't drive

days at theme parks - as above

Theres actually more then I thought that I avoid

Oh and anything like built in appliances or new kitchens or bathrooms as I don't own my home

On a plus you can enter to win loads of things for your little one
My little un's are now both over 6 foot tall and have left home so I don't enter for kids stuff. Swings and roundabouts again.

Quick question or two for everyone

Would you like someone to come into your home to clean for you?
I like the idea, but I think I would clean before they came :rotfl:

Would you like a chef to come into your home and cook for you and you family?
I'm ot sure about that one :cool:

This! My mum always does things like this, sadly rubbed off on me. I remember as a teenager having to wash the windows the day before the window man came round to clean them... always puzzled me that one. My mother still does that now. And washing the car before taking it for a wash..

Is this a pick on the oldies day?

I've heard Weedol is very good for paths too- got any of those?

Haha, nope! I live in a 3rd floor flat and the 'garden' out the back is concrete covered in leaf litter! I arranged for it to be sent to my dad's address but I don't think it's even turned up yet! I won't be hassling them if it doesn't! :rotfl:

haha when i was really young it was all about the sega megadrive!! lol then in my early teens i was hooked on the snes... then i discovered playstation!! lol sadly we no longer have the original playstation but we have a PS2 and a PS3... really want to upgrade to PS4 but with 4 kids, falling to bits house etc we just can't justify the money! i've been entering every comp i see for a PS4 but so far no luck we've never tried out PSP either... but then i've never really been into hand helds x

I have a son who is 31 and remember he had a commodore 64 and a zx spectrum before the mega drive they have certainly moved on since then!I remember the commodore had a cassette tape thing that took ages to load

commodore 64, This I have heard of! I remember my dad showing it to us when we visited our grandparents house a few years ago along with a few other technology relics-including Cine Film.

sega megadrive- I had to google it, bit before my time!

:eek:
Feel well old now

My list:

Foreign holiday - half the family can't fly and half get seasick, one is claustrophobic thus ruling out the channel tunnel ...

Spa days - get yer hands off me!

DVDs and film merch - I've only watched about a dozen films in my life ... I have a short attention span when it comes to films

iPad - no interest in having one

Personal chef - I'd find it excruciating as I'm a fussy eater

Meet and greet - I couldn't be bothered ...

Personal shopper voucher/experience - they always look intimidating!

Picnic hamper - there were loads of comps for these last year, I was sick of seeing them by the autumn!

Blinds - usually run by companies who think it's ok to ring you up a dozen times to see if you want to take up one of their 'special' offers.

Anything for kids - although if they're very easy entry I'll enter with a PostPals kid in mind ...

Personal shopper things, I've won a few and have always been able to just pick up the vouchers and spend as I wish.

The thought of someone sizing me up and deciding what would look good on me feels me with dread but I still enter as I love to shop...just on my own.
