Party time & congratulations to all of those who have hit their monthly NSD target xxx Let's thrash the rest of the month 😁😀😂
Staying on 23/20 for NSD Friday - Babyface needed additional medication today. As it was a spendy day I filled up the car with petrol, collected babyface's fresh food from the butchers, put in an online Easter food stock up delivery order, and put in a Boots collection order for babyface tomorrow - 5 birds one stone & only one spendy day 😁😀🤣
P.S: If anyone is interested and shops at Morrisons, they have a deal on a leg of lamb @ £5.97 per kilo; a 2.2kg leg cost £13.13, plus there's an additional 50p off per leg; if shopping via the Morrisons App, but the offer is presently only available with a home delivery booked between 27/03 & - 05/04. Maximum of 3 legs per house number order. Super saver £1 delivery slots still available - Anything not to have to go into a supermarket, which is my pet hate of all time! 😂🤣 Be aware that the cost of lamb is expected to skyrocket just in time for Easter! 🤐😮
