That's how our cats act if you try to cuddle them 90% of the time, whereas the dog would velcro herself to you if she could, to ensure maximum cuddle time.
We've two of them here. Henry pretends he's not into cuddles but then if you stop he starts nudging your arm, like eh what the eff do you think you're doing, cuddle me now!
On the subject of matching undies, I was rolling around on the road after my accident and the paramedics had just given me the first bit of morphine so it was all good then and I "whispered" to my boyfriend, "do I have matching underwear on?" (they'd already cut my clothes off at that stage and I was showing everything to all the world!) and when I got to the hospital the morphine was starting to wear off and I was effing and blinding again and the paramedics were like "it's okay love, you've got your matching undies on, don't panic" oh the shame! I don't even know why I cared if my underwear was matching, I think somewhere in the back of my mind I was thinking of my granny saying "always wear nice underwear in case you get hit by a bus" or in my case "a van"

I worked it out last week, i reckon by planning your meals for the week and shopping in aldi/lidl you could get away with spending about 20-25 euro a week on food, some weeks i reckon it would be less, you wouldnt be buying things like porridge or spices or cleaning products every week, the dealz chain is fab for cleaning products0 -

There's a Lidl very close to the college and I know there's an Aldi somewhere in Athlone, just not sure where. There is a Dealz near Golden Island as well. I'm feeling positive about this now.

Could be done for about 30 quid a week easily Jane. My first year in college I spent about 15 quid a week on food but it wasn't very nutritious! Can you cook? If not get a student cookbook. Cheapest kinda stuff: eggs, spuds, pasta dishes thrown together from tinned tomatoes, tinned tuna etc. Butchers often do 10 chicken fillets for 10 quid, any tiny bit of freezer space and you're laughing. Even now I feed two people for a week for less than 80 quid, that's ALL meals and I buy a lot of little luxuries like steak and chocolate and heaps of nuts and berries which aren't especially cheap. If you know how to cook, have access to lidl or aldi and learn when your local supermarket puts stuff on clearance you can eat like a queen for feck all.
Sorry for the massive post! Am saving for something at the moment and getting all nerdily excited about ways to save money! 0 -

I can sort of cook. I can do scrambled eggs but I can follow recipes fairly well so that wouldn't be a massive problem. I was thinking of potatoes, chicken fillets, bread, the veg in Aldi/Lidl are cheap, baked beans etc.. I may be cooking for two but I figure I could still do it. He's a bit more picky but I'm the type of person that will eat nearly anything. If it's cheap and it tastes okay it'll be grand for me.
Thanks for the post, I really appreciate it. 0 -
