About a month ago my Lemon Fool annual subscription came up for renewal.

I've taken some time off from work and we are in financial lock-down accordingly and proud to announce living well below our means. So for the last month or so I've put up with the Lemon Fool adverts. Now before credit control send me a reminder I would say I anticipate returning to paid work soon and I will make sure I make my annual sacrifice to the alter of Grumpy Old Men The Lemon Fool :lol:

But in the meantime I have a bit of a grump I'd like to air. I have never, and I mean never, ever, purchased anything after seeing it in an advert. So I'm being a great Fool and living below my means whilst the income has reduced. And Lemon Fool put up an advert which has broken my life long record of not buying something I'd seen in an advert. Now I feel very very Grumpy. Grumpier than I have ever felt in a lifetime of ignoring adverts.

Shirts For Me

What makes it even worse is I have to choose no more than two and I want the lot :P

I am sooo glad you didn't post this after I'd had a glass or 3 of wine.
