I know right, there is no other reason a 20 year old would go for a 60 year old.
Loool, gossip of the year!

Anyone going shopping on boxing day?

Not sure. I hate how packed the shops get and the hustle and bustle. Don't even get me started on primark on boxing day. Bismillah its crazy!! :eek:

Ill probs go the day after. Hbu


I know! You can barely walk, the whole city is out!
I was so excited as I needed new clothes but I have a shift so I'm working.
Crazy as everyone will probably be coming for lunch.

I was always wondering this, do you boys go shopping for yourself or are you not bothered and let your mum do the shopping and decisions?

Do you like shopping? Or do you go only when in need?

I'm really curious about this as my brother seems to despise shopping.




lol, that's hilarious!

This one has a more powerful processor then the other HP pavilions (including red one) so it caught my eye.

Do you like shopping?

I like buying new clothes etc yes.. But what I don't like is going around for hours and making sure to go inside every shop in town like somali women.

I look on the Internet to see what I like, if it catches my eye I either get it delivered or go get it myself. Shopping takes me no longer then half an hour, or one hour max.

That's good!
Wish I could be like that, after two hours I get tired, don't get how people can shop the whole day.

I despise taking my sisters shopping, and going to 3 shops to get the right shade of colour, and they try it on and then say oh we don't like it that grates me.
When I go shopping I know what I'm getting and from where to get it.
But when it comes to electronics like getting a laptop I do like to look around for the best type and price. A big contrast I know

Haha, it is a big contrast... kind of?
That might be why my brother hates it then... my Dad is the same, he'll spend hours looking at prices of iPads, laptops and phones and when we get home, he'll look at them online.

How can you guys cope with such big families, I go crazy with just one brother and one sister.

Mashallah girls are a blessing the youngest one always looks after mum gets her everything mum's little princess.
But how do you handle the boys, do you have teenage brothers, I always think teen girls easier to handle than boys
