No one's asked me that yet, but most know my sarcasm well now. 

I would just say"  nothing you need to know about" 

Or something they won't expect. " Buying an electric car, going green, vegetarian,tree hugger, eco warrior .  And the one none would expect. A staycation!!  That's my list. What's yours?

If they were serious coming that late I'd be buying a few heaters to put in each room.

🤓🤭 I'm hoping to continue with my home improvement thread which will be encountering its fourth year 😰 it's going on a bit long now but it has expanded to improving the entire house where it was once just the living room.

I have made good progress throughout this year and updated the thread by editing the relevant locations hopefully making it easier to follow and a better read, used alot of IKEA items this year in bedroom 03 of the home and it all comes together really well.

I plan to finish my masters course and hopefully get a place for that training. I have so much to talk about in the interview especially my 4 years patient experience which I think is key as that job you have to face patients. I'm more worried about the appitude tests I need to do for the application as if I do well I get an interview. 

I don't like food shopping on Christmas Eve Eve…  Thought it wouldn't be too bad at ~9am this morning just for a few date sensitive items...how wrong I was! 😳  I don't envy anyone having to go tomorrow!! 😲

On the plus side, I should be sorted for food until next year now!  And have no need to drive again until Friday!  Woop! :biggrin: 

Another don't like is that Tesco are selling pre-cooked pigs in blankets this year...in near identical packaging to the raw ones!  I wonder how many people have started munching on the raw ones by accident! :unsure:

I went out at 11am and just came back. So much traffic and impatient people that I was keeping little space in the car in front when crawling forward 😂. Obviously not so close to frustrate them

I'm doing food shopping and Xmas shopping tonight. Argos open till 8pm, m&s till 10pm and Tesco till 12am. 

I normally leave everything until Xmas Eve afternoon after I've finished work. So I'm early this year. 😀😀😀😀

This time next year I intend to be hiding from Xmas on holiday somewhere warm

Argos usually have offers giving you back €5 for every €50 spent 

Every year I would reserve a few items to amount over €50 or €100 

Then que up again to purchase a second group of reserved items and use the voucher from the first transaction on the second purchase.

However this year when they provided the voucher; it's not valid until 26th December 🤷‍♂️

Lol, you must like crowds more than I do! :laugh:  Is it still ridiculously busy this evening?

I guess your Tesco is only s small one?  I was surprised to see our Extra is still open 24hrs today, doesn't close until 7pm tomorrow.

Normal size Tesco. Normally closes12am then open tomorrow from 6am to 7pm . 

I don't like crowds. Did Argos pay in advance so only had to collect quickly, m&s was quiet. Tesco wasn't too bad, no worse than a normal Saturday . 

Most of my Tesco shop consisted of 8 cases of lager, beer, cider for the lads I work with. Luckily 4 are on holiday !! 

M&S tonight looked like a plague of locusts had gone through it, naff all left that I wanted.
Sainsburys were busy but bearable however had no scan'n'shop handsets (all piled up in baskets by the tills awaiting putting back into the charger docks).
I figured that they needed docking to reset before another shopper could use them so cheekily swagged one and reset it myself thus avoiding big queues at the tills.

When you comment on Facebook trying to help then get hated on by someone and people taking their side 🙄. There was a lady where her son had someone crash into him and tried running him over. I messaged saying this and had a lady say this thinking I'm being rude. Funny how people are quick to judge after.

Some people have very thin skins.
I see nothing offensive in your post worth that backlash.
