28th December – Shopping in the Sales

As this month (and year) comes to an end, my ambitions to blog daily are waning, but I am perservering!

This morning, with below freezing temperatures, I headed out to the sales at The Outlet, Banbridge, with my daughters and their Christmas money and vouchers just waiting to be spent.

We all had sucesses with our purchases with scarves, jeans, watches, bags and purses amongst other items.  My daughters remained true to type, with one struggling not to spend EVERYTHING in the first two shops, and the other reluctant to spend ANYTHING at all!

Personally I bought a lovely DKNY watch, some Gap and Fat Face items and a black handbag from Mexx.

On the way along the dual carriageway to The Outlet, one of my daughters said in a concerned voice, “Mum, it said back there that “The Gap” was closed!”……however it was pointed out that this was a traffic sign about the gap in the central reservation being closed due to a new road layout! 

Later in the day, my brother-in-law and his family came to visit, and the cousins enjoyed sharing their new Christmas gifts, including the Madagascar Kart Wii game.

Only a few more days to enjoy the Christmas decorations and lights……and New Year and resolutions looming. 

Do you make any resolutions? How do you celebrate New Year? My curious and inquisitive mind would love to know!!!
