Low Aspirations!

[Caran]

Just watching Fridays Chase. One contestant was asked what she would spend the money on if she won a considerate amount. She said Marks and Spencer's Two for a tenner meals that included a main, dessert and a bottle of wine .
Even Bradley was a bit taken aback by this.

[shoota]

I think Luciano Pavarotti (the tenor) ate more than two...

[Mamyalynne]

Sounds like she's happy with her lot in life.

[Caran]

I suppose that is an option Mamya.

[gness]

Don't know how much it was, Caran...but what would you spend it on?.....Apart from, like me, wine...men and song..... ;-)

[Caran]

You know gness I haven't a clue. I want for nothing.
I don't crave holidays, new cars and I would never move from this house I love the situation I live in.
So I suppose I could say the same as this lady, who knows?

[ummmm]

They are actually really nice meals and if you don't like cooking but still want fresh food....perfect

[Caran]

Yes ummmm I have had them before. Very good value especially with the bottle of wine included.

[ummmm]

Does M&S deliver?

[Caran]

I don't know, but wouldn't really think so. I have never seen delivery vans about.

[gness]

Well if you won a lot of dosh you could have a taxi pick up your M&S meals for you...... ;-)

[Mamyalynne]

I think they did a trial in London last year, don't know what happened with that.

You can order party food, platters etc but think you have to collect.

[ummmm]

I know they deliver party food but not sure about normal shopping.

I do understand where she's coming from. If you hate cooking it'll be the perfect solution.

I'd buy one of the cordless hoovers. The one I like the look of is £350 and I can't justify that as I only have one room (besides the stairs/landing) with a carpet.

[gness]

I think if I won some money I'd extend my workroom over the existing dining room extension and fill it with shelves to hold fabric and wool....all neat and tidy...x

[ummmm]

Simple things when you're happy with your lot.

I actually have a massive 'to do' list but have a man who puts everything off until tomorrow. Everyone know tomorrow never comes.....

[gness]

Ummmm....when he gets to my age he won't....he'll do everything today!.... :-)

[ummmm]

He has good intentions :-D

[DarceyK123]

I does make a change from the usual "holiday" reply.

I don't know what I'd do either, I like where I live, have a nice car and home, don't enjoy travel.

[waterboatman]

I like where I live. Might buy a better car if the pot was big enough.

[NoMercy]

Blimey, if they're that good I really must try one.

[waterboatman]

ummmm, I have a GTech Air Ram. It's brilliant. Light, easy to use and a good price. I have the hand held version too. Very useful.
