    In the present climate I think that these questions really should be changed

    1. Have you bought anything recently that wasn’t in a sale, if so what was the most expensive?
    2. Have you discovered any shop that hasn’t got a queue and if you have please send me a discreet email?
    3. What is the least useful thing you bought in a sale? [this one can stand but you can't include a foot spa]
    4. Do you believe there will be a Christmas this year and if so on what date?
    5. Have you ever bought something recently that wasn’t in a sale, changed your mind and decided to return it only to find the shop no longer exists …….. or is that just me?

    This is going to be an extremely interesting year ……. when the going gets tough, the tough have a little sit down,a bit of a think, a cup of tea and then do as they’re told – it works for me – tee hee.

    1. I couldn’t find anything that I really liked in the Sales, must be fussy ;)
    2. No, it’s always too cold!
    3. A automatic wine bottle cork remover!
    4. Hmmm, If I say yes does that make me sound cheap? ;)
    5. Not yet! But there is still time :lol:
