Still, you've got to keep the missus happy eh?
Happy yes, equipped with ridiculously expensive handbags, no. Hence the funds at chez Robajob are going on flights back to Blighty for the festive season. I plant to spend it asleep on sofas at various relative's houses whilst trying my best to avoid strictly come bloody dancing.

So long as the missus is happy, I'll spend Christmas anywhere, provided there is a sofa shaped object to doze on.

Mind you I'm quite looking forward to a visit to Meadowhall to see how small, dirty and crowded it feels.

Just been to our local Lulu Hypermarket to buy some Cheddar cheese and found the place throbbing with Xmas merriment. Ended up buying a Santa outfit for my daughter, a plum cake and a box of chocolate make-up manufactured by Walkers of Coventry Road, Birmingham. Set me back all of Dhs40 which is hardly bank-breaking even by Lionheart standards.
