Chap I used to know seemed to know the prices of just about everything in all the various shops. So bin bags were 1p cheaper in Asda or a loaf of bread was 2p cheaper in Lidl and so on. He probably spent an extra £50 quid on petrol saving all that money.
Therapy is better than prunes for that. Prunes are great for the digestive system. I get mine extremely cheaply on my six-monthly jaunt to Tunisia. A whole sack of the first quality for a few Dinars. Just charter a boat to transport them via Lampedusa to Italy.
Two weekly bin collections mean our main bin doesn’t get collected until 5th jan. by then the bin will have exploded.
I haven't got any presents for my children. Do you think they'd like dates?
The Pound shop do those for, unsurprisingly, a pound! Or sometime 2-4-1. I knwo this because the EldestCub defaulted to calendars as his present of choice for pretty much everyone for a couple of years - the kids get a £20 (historically a tenner from my dad and a tenner form me, although both have tended to top us a few quid from their piggy banks) budget and write their lists and go out to buy presents for all the family. In the case of the youngest, who includes all the dogs and cats, the list had 28 names on it!
They're just dropping in on their way to Arch's family for the holiday, we will pass on everybody's greetings.Say hello to them from me. If NT has made his gorgeous lemon monsoon cake I shall be very jealous
