Karen Millen basket..... £350 (40% off everything, I've saved a fortune!)
Amazon basket.......£190
Monsoon basket......£380 (in my defence, there is a dress for DD in there and its 30% off everything, again I have saved loads!)
House porn basket.............£42.5 Million

Thank fuck my debit card will laugh hysterically if I tried to pay for any of these.

I am sweating haribo
I am saying fuck with gay abandon around my children.
I think chips can count as vegetables and also dairy as long as you make a butty with real butter on it

I need someone to do the adulting. Since I finished work (pub manager so the first to be furloughed) I'm a mess :o:o

Ohhh yes please, I might wear my new (virtual) Joseph pure silk purple dress with Tiffany £10 diamond bracelet for a minimalist hint of extravagance.

When my sil was bored she used to put searches into eBay and find the most expensive item, for example Elvis used to return brilliant items around the 25k mark!

A Monopoly board too expensive to list the price online.
I thought our £50 one from.Johm Lewis was excessive (but nice! It's got other games like chess and chequers and is made of wood- a wedding present 10 years ago)

I have taken a leaf out of your book OP, and have found the ideal new house.

It's only £8.5million.

Actually... it's Grade 1 listed, so that's going to cause headaches, isn't it... and who's going to dredge the lake when it needs it, and wind the clock in the stable yard clocktower...

PyongyangKipperbang · 02/04/2020 20:54

And you know the rule, if you have to ask the price then you cant afford it.

8,5 million? I would imagine it comes with a clock winder as part of the staff surely?

Harrods isnt what it used to be, all the good stuff is POA! And where are the diamond encrusted Zebras and solid gold prams ffs?!

Soft toy collection is nice.

I've promised my younger DD a trip to Harrods to get a teddy at some point... Luckily a few in our price range.

PyongyangKipperbang · 02/04/2020 21:33

Oh that would be a nice treat to look forward to. I might plan something similar with DD, we are nowhere near London but I bet Build a Bear would go down well!

I am in the shielding group so I bought a pair of birkies that I can’t actually go out in.

Also lost a loaf of bread today. Found it when I put the saucepans away.

Lilimoon · 03/04/2020 08:33

@Hadenoughofitall441 Happy Birthday :)

TSSDNCOP · 03/04/2020 08:47

I could make Christie from the White company and even richer woman if I cashed my basket. I yearn to waft in grey marl cashmere yoga wear and sleep under banks of white, 10 million thread count Egyptian-cotton.

The reality is that grey marl makes me look like a corpse and DCats would eviscerate the bloody bedding.

Sorry Christie Sad

catwithnohat · 03/04/2020 09:44

pyong I do the same but you are the true queen of basket shopping Grin

I think chips can count as vegetables and also dairy as long as you make a butty with real butter on it Drool....(and its only 09.45)

TheFutureMrsHardy · 03/04/2020 09:51

DH is threatening to murder me if I ask him once more what day it is Blush and also if I show him one more property on RightMove that is about £10million more than our budget Grin

I thought it was Tuesday today............

DP got annoyed with me yesterday for looking at £xm houses in Bath.

“Why are you looking at houses in Bath?! Bath is not commutable to London! Surely the whole point of buying a multi-million pound house in Bath is that you don’t need to work!”

Calm down, dear.

tectonicplates · 03/04/2020 10:49

Another person here who read it wrong and thought you were buying a basket from Karen Millen. I didn't even realise they made baskets Grin

AlCalavicci · 03/04/2020 21:05

I cut my own hair and got it so so wrong. Now sporting a number 4 clipped all over. It was so long :(

MaMisled · 03/04/2020 21:19

I ate french toast with apple, strawberry and cinnamon, lunch was homemade soup, tuna, egg and cheese salad and an orange.....
Followed by 2 orange Club biscuits, four finger KitKat, cherry scone with butter and Malteser chocolate spread, 2 Freddos then a large Easter egg plus the chocolate bars with it.

KittenVsBox · 03/04/2020 22:02

Who wanted to know what day it was? The attached might help.
I need to keep away from putting stuff in baskets. Our holiday is just about to be refunded in full, so I will be able to actually spend on it for a while. It would be such a shame if I accidentally hit "buy now".

I burnt the dinner tonight because I was playing lemmings on my phone.

I set the fire alarm off at work once when I burnt the toast because I was playing something on my phone. Company rules meant full evacuation everytime. Luckily all my patients liked me enough that they saw the funny side Grin
