You are so right SSG , I am very pleased with this weekends jobs and treats.
All my above list is done , apart from DS from train station. Major problems at Euston , think someone had jumped in front of a train at Milton Keynes so lines closed. So very sad for all the people involved.
DS is currently in a bar with his 2 friends seeing if Euston will reopen soon, if not they are all checking into a hotel for another night. When he phoned to say there had been an incident my heart sank I thought terrorist attack at least he is ok unlike the poor person at Milton Keynes .This is a system account and does not represent a real person.

Did you go to the bargains section in the Swedish section. I love it there. My best ever bargain was a rug found there.
