But we had budgeted for a bigger overlap with our rented place than we've needed and the in-laws bought us a load of decorating materials, so we are a bit ahead budget-wise. But it does feel a bit wrong as we've spent so much recently. I think the deposit situation will decide it because we weren't counting on getting any of it back at all so if we do it will be a bonus.<BR/><BR/><BR/>M - Of course, you can have a bag of scones if I'm ever in your area.SandDancerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09799646379550700816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23571956.post-37038427830859841442007-03-30T01:23:00.000+01:002007-03-30T01:23:00.000+01:00Scones!Scones!Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00452664663894833976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23571956.post-83835395655163950732007-03-29T22:04:00.000+01:002007-03-29T22:04:00.000+01:00Hmmm...I see you need a voice of reason here.

You've earnt it. It'll do you both the world of good. I'm a great believer in small breaks, they always make me feel a lot better than the traditional 2-3 weeks away.

It didn't sound like you were going to make it to the beach this year (atleast Miss F), so I thought I'd bring the beach to you. <BR/><BR/>It didn't work out for us to meet up, but maybe next time. :)Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00452664663894833976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23571956.post-62676970764540762032007-03-29T14:04:00.000+01:002007-03-29T14:04:00.000+01:00Its particularly sickening on a cold grey day like...Its particularly sickening on a cold grey day like today.SandDancerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09799646379550700816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23571956.post-84458278169631689262007-03-29T12:56:00.000+01:002007-03-29T12:56:00.000+01:00Why oh why did you show me this site? *cries*Why oh why did you show me this site? *cries*Miss Forthrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13888591977063770894noreply@blogger.com
