    . I do think a chaise lounge is a good description of you though. Stylish yet comfortable and laid back :)

    May the odds be ever in your favour;)

    I've been doubling up today too. I got 1 x pink vintage cava, 2 x Pinot, 2 x white Bordeaux and 1 x Touraine sauvignon blanc for £40. I may go back at the weekend for a bottle of Pouilly Fum!e and something else to make it up to £20 :D

    I can't read back fully....my night has been taken up with work in the hope that I can have an early finish tomorrow:rotfl:

    Just wondered what the consensus of opinion is on the Nectar points....I have only 500 for a transaction of £6 which isn't a total of anything I've bought.
    That can't be right as I know Sains love me best:smileyhea:smileyhea

    I must admit that I bought a Rose yesterday simply because I liked the shape of the bottle:rotfl:

    I have one more double up I can use and had thought about holding on to it but I am tempted to use it in view of the way promotions are changing these days. If this was the last double up I would regret not buying more fizz:)

    I can do one more double up too but i'm waiting until Sunday to use the 4th of 4 conditional spends they mailed me. I get 500 pts when it's used on a £30 spend and i seriously need to rebuild my points total

    Mrs aau1 had a field day on Wednesday when i told her how much she could go and spend
