It may be worth biding your time a little unless there's something you really fall for. I'm just thinking the January sales are not that far away, though judging by the shops in the city today, there are quite a few sales on already.
Thanks Cherry,I was thinking I might wait for the January salesim not in a rush to spend it,it's just a nice little bonus to take to Bristol in case I do see something I like

Woke up at 7am this morning because DD put the heating on and the noise of the boiler wakes me up,I was going to go back to sleep but realised I'm not actually tired so got up at 8am,im off to take the dog out in a bit but I'm looking out at the wild weather we have today and not wanting to go anywhere
I'm also off into town today to finish my Christmas shopping then thats me done present wise, just fresh food to buy next week and we are all set:jOriginal Debt Owed Jan 18 = £17,630 Paid To Date = £6,510 Owed = £11,1201 -
And I'm done:j
Got my last bits in town today so all finished now,I walked into town because I came out of my house just in time to see the bus sailing by,I never check the time when I leave so quite often endnup missing the bus,I really need to take more notice of the timetable
Town was manic today and very cold,I had to go into wilkoosss to get sawdust for the chickens and the queues were ridiculous,I was glad to get in and get home again
I've spent the afternoon pottering round at home,I cleaned the chickens out and Babs who is moulting looks very sorry for herself,they always moult when the weather is cold ,she currently looks like a badly stuffed pillow crossed with a porcupine ,I'm hoping she gets through it ok as it's quite easy for them to get ill and not survive when they moult,she is already off her food a bit, I've given them warm mash and lots of corn today and that should warm them up overnight while they digest it hopefully
I've also got some washing done today but not much else
I'm just contemplating taking the dog out for her evening walk but it's really cold and I don't want toOriginal Debt Owed Jan 18 = £17,630 Paid To Date = £6,510 Owed = £11,1201 -

Hmmmmm not feeling too good tonight so I'm in bed early,my joints are aching and I feel really tired,my hands have been hurting for a few days now with stabbing pains in my fingers,I thought it might wear off but it hasn't yet
Hopefully it will have improved by Saturday or I'm going to be in trouble walking round Bristol all day:eek:
I've stocked up on painkillers just in case,I've just got the clothes ready that I'm wearing/ taking with me as I won't feel like it when I get home from work tomorrow night,im not taking much seeing as we are only staying overnight
Just one more 12 hour shift to get through at work and I have a week off,I am sooooo ready for this week off I can't wait :jOriginal Debt Owed Jan 18 = £17,630 Paid To Date = £6,510 Owed = £11,1201 -
