But I don't like shopping! Unless you're suggesting I bring SWMBO and get nagged all the way to slow down? :(

Maybe you could find a nice trip of her own for her to go on that weekend . . . "ohh dont worry dear I'll be ok here on my own" :p

Sounds like a good idea+++

I will discuss with SWMBO and like said before, depends on when in the year it will be :D

Great idea Singh+++

Time of year? School hols or not school hols? The latter is best for me. And I like the 'something else' for SWMBO idea. Spa weekend with a girlfriend perhaps?

I too am in the "interested" category subject to similar caveats as Jim, Bill and most of us who are married, with kids, no wonder Al Bundy was my role model:rolleyes:
