I went into the city centre with Marena this morning to go to the library, but I also ended up being coaxed into Early Learning Centre. Where I ended up buying a load of painting stuff and a few bits for crafting (glue, scissors). Cost me just over £20. Then I went into the shop next door that sells cheap stuff and bought some craft bits like glitter, 'googly eyes' etc which was a couple of quid, then onto 'The Works' for a bumper book of coloured paper, another couple of quid, and then got dragged into the Disney Store! I had to get her a plate anyway, as her last one broke, and ended up spending £3 on a Lightning McQueen one.

Bloody parking cost me nearly £6. I'm not parking in the centre again! Although, to be fair, I thought I was only going to be there for an hour at most. We ended up being there nearly 4 hours.

Still, the trip to ELC gave me some ideas of what to buy for her birthday, so I suppose it was a good thing.
