    Then as I left A with my second shop, a gust of wind took my bloomin receipt out of my hand. Fair play I thought. Poetic justice.:o

    Then my survival instincts took over and I sprinted after it as "Chariots of Fire" filled my ears. Well I didn't actually sprint....it was more of a trot:rotfl::rotfl:

    Within seconds it flew from one end of the car park to the other.

    But I got it:T:T

    Just sorting out some Easter decorations:)

    I love Easter.

    I think I like it better than Christmas :)

    Family at home, good food and wine and no rushing round the shops for last minute presents.

    Bring it on:)
