Everything we set off to purchase was acquired without much ado, and some, dinner (if you can call the questionable fare on offer dinner) was eaten and we
remained 'in situ' until almost closing time.....hell, we even managed half an hour in Sainsbury's, quite a treat when one is normally subjected to the likes of Kwik Save for want of much else in the vicinity.
All in all a successful, if scarily expensive day, given that en-route we made the previously mentioned 'detour' and bought PG a new car. *Ouch*
Since moving to the outer reaches of the universe I have kinda given up retail therapy as a pastime, the journey to anywhere worthwhile is off putting on a regular basis and so I usually buy things I need here on the internet, or I just don't buy it at all. Unfortunately, having thoroughly enjoyed today's 'spending spree' I could quite fancy taking it up again as a re-visited hobby!
Shhhhhh....don't tell PG! ;o)

One things about moving here was being close to Ikea -- about a half hour, perhaps less. I'd hate to be there on the weekend though, and my confession is that I like their food -- cheap and decent -- but my tastes and expectations are simple. We need a few more items to finish off our relocation flurry, but we're not in a hurry. The New Year will do, and it doesn't have to be early on either.
