Today started quietly with a leisurely lie in and breakfast - albeit a house full of nine people rather than three. It was then time to set out for a retail Outlet called Atlantic Village and the afore mentioned £2 challenge - each person picks a name and buys a present for £2 or under for that person and gives it to them over tea. I won't say who mine is for since she reads the blog but my £2 bought around £17 worth of stuff! You've got to love the sales!
We have also sorted out the crackers for next year and who has picked who - the crackers yesterday went down well - Phil was really pleased with his Doctor Who cracker!
Tonight we are planning special tea with a theme - again I cannot say because HE reads the blog as well! Pictures will follow tomorrow and does involve come baking of mine! It also involves successfully negotiating one of my challenges!
The other activity today is beginning to narrow down my choice of new puppy - I think that I am going to have a cockerpoo. Phil's dog is just like a lovely teddy bear and Millie has reacted well to her so that's positive!
Anyway that's enough of my ramblings - off to ice a muffin!
They were brilliant buys and great fun was had by all!
ReplyDeleteCan agree that cocker poos are indeed adorable!
