Talking Spend my money?!

Hey all

Kev, it's no good, I keep calculating and wondering why there aren't enough noughts on the end of £1K. Perhaps better to leave suggestions to the menfolk

A good woman is priceless, but finding one is helluva difficult.

lets focus on achievable aims

Treat yourself to a new Laptop?

Donate it to Charity in your local town and see the difference it makes?

Find the biggest TV within budget.

Buy a seperate fridge just for Beer / Lager and fully stock it.

Just a couple of things I would do with a grand
