    Roasting hot here again now, must say I am enjoying this prolonged summer.

    Happy jollies to all those who are off soon on their hols, hope you have a lovely time. x

    Good thanks Chris xx
    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.

    Packed ✓
    Transferred handbags stuff ✓
    Cut Clematis ✓

    taken friend to Ts & she bought 12 of the £2.50 Barbies (SEL £11.95 or BOGOF) (to use in Raffle) & then she went through SS & was watched & openly discussed by overseeing SAs. When we met up we watched one of the SAs trouting off to toys section, finding the said Barbie, taken it to the price checker, put it back, walked back & saw us watching her ;);)

    My local will only let you have one at a time, told the SA to take them off the bill because I am rather hoping that I will be able to get a few next time I try. I was looking forward to the overage as well :(

    Our bags are sitting in the dining room waiting to be grabbed on the way out :D It is amazing what you can get in a tiny cabin bag :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Got my normal luggage up to 16.8 kilos :eek: Does include some of OHs though.
