I wanted to try and do something different for this weeks Gallery but as usual I left it too late to do anything impressive or clever. After a quick play on Picassa trying to black and whitify (I know, not a word) some of my favourite pictures I gave up and went to ask Mr Frugal for his thoughts on what I could take a photo of that would represent the theme of black and white. His response was that he didn't care what I did as long as it didn't involve Newcastle United! As a Boro fan he is obliged to hate anything to do with Newcastle United - it's the law apparently ;-) So in honour … [Read more...]

What did you do last night….
Mr Frugal and I have been married for ten years this week and to celebrate we went to see Peter Kay last night at the Newcastle Metro Radio Arena and it was fantastic - a perfect way to celebrate. I know this picture doesn't show it but we actually had really good seats (apart from the fact that everyone was squashed in like sardines) and my chest actually hurt from laughing solidly for two hours. His new material is fantastic and I can't wait to buy the DVD!Courtesy of last night, the kids new favourite new joke is: My mates just been sacked from his job on the dodgems, it's OK … [Read more...]

Christmas Dinner is a massive part of Christmas Day and it's my favourite part of the whole day (apart from the presents obviously lol) but the thing I have a problem with is spending so much money on one meal. The most important thing to me about Christmas Dinner is all of the family sat round the table together having fun and you don't need to spend much money to do that.Don't get me wrong, we do spend more than usual on our Christmas dinner but ultimately it's just a Sunday dinner and you can only eat so much can't you? We usually have a starter … [Read more...]
Grown Up Twenty Questions….
Not that we're twelve or anything but when someone gave Miss Frugal one of those electronic twenty question games, we couldn't resist trying out it's knowledge of slightly more grown up objects. By we, I obviously mean me and Mr Frugal and not me and her - now that would be wrong! Our first word of the day was vibrator ;-)Is it Animal, Mineral, or Other - Other Is it shiny - Sometimes Is it flat - No Does it get wet - Yes ;-) Does it open - No Is it made of metal - Sometimes Is it a common household object - No (Bit of an argument about this one) Does it have writing on it - … [Read more...]

Thanks to the lovely people at Tescos for sending us our costumes - the kids loved them and have had them on all day today. Next, we've got Bonfire Night and then we're on the run-up to Christmas - AAAAGH … [Read more...]
