Enismirdal. Hates. Packing.

OTOH, Enismirdal has had a fairly successful shopping trip today.

I went out to get:
Tea (Lady Grey)
Cheese grater
Maybe another vegetable knife (but I am VERY picky about knives, so I wasn't expecting a miracle there)

I returned with:
Fake Bailey's (Country Meadow - £2.99 for 70cl)
2 bars ultra-cheap chocolate (19p each)
Jay cloths (49p for 10)
Washing up gloves (59p)
Posh, fancy 2-way cheese grater where the gratings fall into a convenient tub thing (£1.79)
2 pads of 80-sheet A4 lined paper (69p a pad, but BOGOF)
Spare teatowel (29p)
2 ringbinders, purple (99p each)

Altogether, quite successful. Especially as much of it was funded by the £6 of coppers I dragged into Lloyd's TSB and made them change into sensible money for me!

Am researching into new computers...anyone any idea if BenQ machines are good or bad?

BenQ???
BENQ?!?!?!
You gotta be kidding me!?
NEVER in my entire LIFE had I seen CD-s of worse quality.
AND I MEAN NEVER!!!
If their (extremely expensive and GOOD) CD-s suck that much, I don't even wanna know about the computers!
REALLY! :P

Nope! Just walked 20 minutes down the road to the local Quality Save! I'd decided the Wilko cheese graters weren't very nice so I'd been looking around for nicer ones.

Well, in Sale, which is about 15 minutes on the Metro. About a mile from my house, so pretty convenient, and it's a decent-sized store as well.

I am very fond of it.

And Cambridge is COMPLETELY devoid of decent discount stores!
