Well The Pier has gone into administration which means a credit crunching 50% off everything on their site. Silver linings and all that!

TBH I always thought they were a bit something and nothing. Still 50% off ~ can we rely on delivery though?

I'm going for candles rather than anything else. It's going on a credit card so if delivery doesn't occur we are covered. We are putting in an order at work to save on the delivery.

Don't waste your breath ~ he doesn't understand.

We buy loads of candles. Some for decoration, some get lit, some don't. Some are just there in case of power cuts others we use to create a relaxing atmosphere. Such things do not seem to enter Nick World ~ prolly 'cos Mrs Nick has more sense that to trust him with a lit candle.

Given your ability to cause disasters and chaos I'm amazed she lets you near anything even vaguely combustible  eeek:

It would collapse under the weight of the candles and the flame retardant icing.
