What I should have been doing:
Ironing. Or painting the bathroom. Or painting the stairs. Or sewing book bags for school.
What I did:
Went to B&Q.
What I ostensibly went to B&Q for:
1 cold chisel.
What I actually ended up buying at B&Q, due to the black-money-hole that exists there:
1 cold chisel @ £4.98 (for taking the bathroom tiles off)
1 tub of plaster @ £9.59 (for plastering where the tiles have been)
1 plaster trowel @ £6.48 (for applying said plaster)
1 strip knife @ £2.48 (it's just useful)
1 sanding block also @ £2.48 (also useful)
1 large chisel @ £5.98 (just in case the cold chisel isn't suitable for everywhere)
1 box of lawn feed @ £8.28 (my lawn needs it)
1 box of Lobelia plants, containing 8 plants @ £1.97 (well they're lovely, a beautiful blue colour)
1 box of Lobelia plants, containing 8 plants @ £0.50 (cheap, due to general plant lethargy)
1 petrol lawnmower @ £78.69 (well mine is broken and I can't keep borrowing my Mum's and I'll have to buy one eventually, and anyway B&Q were doing 20% off everything, last day today).
Total Overspend:
£116.45
Damn.
