Retail Therapy!!

It was going to be one of them peacefull relaxing days today, you know the one's i'm on about where you don't plan to do anything or go anywhere just the basics like eating and stuff. Sort of like a normal day for me. I got up ready to spend most of the day on the computer and just generally doing nothing, that is until Judith came back from next door after finishing repairing his computer, she getting a right little Techie !! and she said that he wants me to look for a new base unit for him as he's finally realised that his has had it really. I love spending other peoples money and i was never one to turn down a challenge. So Laptop on my Lap,( Where else would it be?) i delved into the World Wide Web to see what bargains I could find. 1st stop on my list the wonderfull Ebay. I love this site, more so the E Shops. Within about 5 mins I found a perfect match to the requirements, so after printing the item page out I went in search of a better deal. After about 2 hours of searching i could not beat the Price for that spec computer. So he came over in a short while and we set about paying for it with his money of course. We then went looking for a Keyboard and mouse which was found easily and very very cheaply on Ebuyer, it was only just over £7 inc vat for a Keyboard, Mouse and Speakers so we just had to have it for that price. When he went i felt quite drained like i'd actually been trawling the streets looking for a bargain not sat on my bum at home. We managed to jointly buy a Legal Copy of Windows XP Home as well which is a first for me as I don't think I have ever had a Legal Copy before. No more dodgy Updates and stuff.

Here's a bit of totally useless information for you. I bought a jar of gorgeous Beetroot In Vinegar you know the one i mean. You buy it for christmas and end up chucking it out about April when you rediscover it at the back of the fridge. Well I really fancied it with some salad on the weekend and Judith likes it too. I thought when I got home on Friday I would have a little taster and you know what, i couldn't open the blinking jar it was rock solid. Judith had a go when she came home and since then a few people have tried but to no avail. I'm going to take it back tommorow and exchange it, I prob won't want to eat it then though Ha ha!! Right off to bed to watch the rest of the Delia Week-end on UK TV Food Nite!!
