    Lovely day but now I am annoyed. The boiler in this rented house has been playing up all week. I keep having to top up the water pressure. Now this evening its too high so I have shut off the heating and hot water for now. Text landlord and he was getting someone in on Tuesday but is looking for someone for tommorow.
    OH just posted a pic of himself and ex wife on his group of all his friends from his twenties. I am fairly good friends with her but bit insensitive on my birthday! Men !!
    Then M&S sent me £5.00 for my Sparks card but when I sign i cant find it!!
    Skip gone though not sure if another is coming!!

    Let's see how much you all know about retail pricing

    The mrs bought these 4 bananas today because "they're so cute and the girls will love them"

    My question to you all is, what did she pay?

    4C4DE0A2-9685-4A50-8B69-DD27659F4A22_zpsygzmgf3z.jpg

    That's a teaspoon I've added for scale :eek:

    The fact you've posted makes me think that it's some outrageous amount like 70p:rotfl:
