Tell him it's your turn now and you'd really love to slip out to a movie, too . . . tell him there's a really good girly feel good romantic movie called, "Victoria's Basement" that you're sure he wouldn't be interested in . . . .and it's an unusually long move at that . . 4 hours at least. ;D

Doesnt matter what he is doing really so long  as it doesn't cost more that $15 and he is gone for 2 hours.

Just been to town, and while waiting for DS 14 to pick a Xbox game at EB games, DS 5 and myself wandered about the shopping centre. I didn't buy anything but DS 5 grabbed a home art catalogue. On the way home he said " mum there is a pasta maker thing that makes skettie (spaghetti) all by its self."



Don't know what it would be like, looks cheap and nasty though. But interesting.

Interesting, wouldn't mind taking a peek at it.
Well today I bought a new slow cooker (was going to get the NU Wave cooker and still may) I want an oval cooker
for legs of lamb that don't fit in a round one. Need a round slow cooker too for cakes.
Another pair of pyjamas from Sussans and some Chance perfume by Channel. Only because the sales assistants in Myers and DJ's
recognise me now when I drench myself in it. It was a guilt purchase.
