Re: What have you just bought?

Brabantia waste bin for my used tea bags and coffee pods as it totally bugs the life out me when my eldest son aka to us as it wasn't me put's his used coffee pods in the middle bit of the sink, just one of my pet hates hopefully this should solve that problem.

If you shop at Tesco and collect vouchers you can get it from them for very little, i got £130.50 worth of cover for only £43.50 in Tesco vouchers so it was free for me.

We paid around £260 for both cars with motor legal cover (free on one policy) and class 1 business use on my car.

(Class 1 business use is to use the car to places other than normal place of work but not commercial driving - most insurers will do this gratis)

When you said RAC I thought you meant breakdown cover, didn't know they sell car insurance too.

Re: What have you just bought?

Pack of two ostrich steaks in Lidl's this morning. They also had kangaroo but unfortunately the animal rights lobby are forcing them to stop stocking it, despite Australia being overrun with them.

Re: What have you just bought?

A plant mister (hand pumped) for watering my Impatiens (Bizzy Lizzy) seedlings. Amazingly only 97p at B&Q. Was expecting several quid.

Re: What have you just bought?

Couple of Alan Davies DVDs, some books, a high viz tee shirt for this summer's cycling, some Fineliner sketching pens, and a new pouch for my phone because I lost the old one, then found it again the day after the new one came.
