    DS3 must be after something , yesterday he brought me a Robin Williams DVD £2 from Mr A to add to my collection, Patch Adams :D. It makes me sad to think there will never be anymore works of art from him :(

    Today he brought me a box of Amidala Pralines with a hazelnut in the centre, just like errr, Ferraro Rocher, 12 in the box £1.99 from Lidl, also another DVD Tom Hardy and Tom Hardy in Legend £5 from Mr A.

    What the dickens he wants I do not know, his board is up to date, he's paid his monthly payment for his phone :huh::huh:

    Just found a Chinese takeaway menu on dining room table, I had planned on treating myself tonight :D. Could it be that they all want DH to pay for a takeaway supper :cool: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    You need to do a checklist:
    Car(s) undamaged?
    Suspiciously moved furniture to cover up damage/stains?
    When is his phone contract up for renewal?
    Does he have a g/f ? :eek:
    Does he have sky/cable in his room?
    Hmmmm.... days lengthening, thoughts towards summer.... Booking holidays?????
    He might just be being nice :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    If he starts cuddling up to you and saying how great you are....RUN FOR THE HILLS!!!

    Well it's in the oven:T

    And how easy to make. You needed to add 175g butter, 3 eggs and grated orange zest. I also added a spoonful of black treacle as it looked a little light. The fruit was well and truly soaked in brandy ......nearly knocked me out when I opened the packet:rotfl:

    It's in the oven for 3 hours so I hope I've made the best guess with oven temperature.
    The most exciting thing is the little Christmas tree and star templates which I will put somewhere safe for next Christmas, promptly forget about them and then chuck them out in July as I won't have a clue what they are for:rotfl::rotfl:

    I made some last night too but from the old Mary Berry packs. Didn't have orange and lemon zest so threw some marmalade in. I find it can often be a good substitute.

    I need a W near me!

    Mine took time to track but has now done so. Thank you so much everyone for your help with this. I'm £15 up.

    Sometimes I remember the days when I really struggled and sometimes didn't have money for proper food. How I wish this sort of moneysaving had been around then.
