  • Well I have made a good start to the day by spending £50 :eek:

    Darn those expensive Sylvanian Families :rolleyes:

    On the plus side, £40 of the money was on behalf of my mum which I will get straight back.

    I think I am going to have to increase the Xmas budget though for the kids. We were only going to spend £75 each, but I bought DD the Sylvanian Grand Hotel which was £80 so that has already blown the budget. I need to get her at least one Nintendo DS game otherwise the free DS she is getting for Xmas will be useless. And of course she will now need to furnish the Sylvaninan Ritz with the room sets costing £20 :eek: :rotfl:

    Good job I won £100 on the bingo :D:D:D:D:D:D:D

    Your tattoo doesn't look too 'bloody' really - when Stu had one of his done, it (this is gross, sorry) bled quite a lot and scabbed over really badly - then he managed to knock the scab off (I did warn you :D) and the tattoo had patches of missing colour where the scab had come off too soon, so he had to go back and have it recoloured! :eek:

    I've spent about £80 on Ryan and £20 on Tash, poor thing! When she's older I will try and aim for about the same amount for both of them, but I just can't justify spending £80 on toys for a 6 month old who wont care anyway. For some reason I feel quite guilty about it though.

  • Snaggles I know what you mean about baby toys, we have stacks. In fact, I am going to be having a clear out soon because H has 2 big toy boxes worth and plays with about 3 things, and is getting more toys for Xmas.
