Guy in front of me at the checkout in Sainsburys yesterday had a trolley completely full of booze - must have been a couple of hundred quids worth. He didn't have a Nectar card and very kindly gave me the points 😀

I had to sell my bike to fund Christmas this year, I'm properly jealous of you lot, I don't even have any whiskey in as I spent my bike money on pressies for the family.
Ah well, next year will be better.

Hoping you do have a better year next year. I would do exactly the same as you.

All this is making me feel guilty about going round the bro in laws mums for dinner. Still, me and my mum are veggie so always take our own foodie top billing.
Anyway, I did wrap up a bottle of red someone gave me a year ago...and made them a gift....

Deliveries when I worked at the wine merchant could be thousands on a case or two of wine or spirits, only occasionally got a tip 😉
Christmas has been quite frugal this year as we don't need much, although I did hand over a lot of money for the van respray, windows etc a day or two ago which is kind of a present to all of us.
