Tidied out some of son's clothes and gave them to a lovely lady with a 2 yr old son, and then bought my son a new jacket for September and school.

Bought a game of Numero, which should cost more than 10 euro , for 70 cent at a charity shop! (Numero is a card game that uses maths skills, great fun, look it up online, it came from Australia originally. We have a few games of it at school, now I have one for home!)

Got lots of plants, reduced, some for only 50c and 1 euro and 2 clematis for 3 euro each, at Atlantic Homecare, all they need is a good drink of water, plenty of that in Ireland from clouds these days....(too late to photo them outside)

Treated myself to some yummy squishy wool on sale from a wool shop and some startling red wool for a winter scarf
the red wool,
