We arrived once and needed to fill up with petrol on a Sunday... not a chance! Good job we weren't needing to go any further that day!

A lot of shops close for two hours for lunch. Although our local supermarket is open all day.. but not Sundays! Alot of businesses if they open on Saturdays they don't open on Mondays. <br /><br />I've got used to it now, but it Steve Mortonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08062727836545335187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18497333.post-49931746188949587442011-03-16T17:02:32.469-04:002011-03-16T17:02:32.469-04:00Thanks Steve...

There are no pictures or anything to be able to tell, but I'm guessing the others (Vlub and Soho) include binders? And on Amazon, is it the timer 21 planning (rather than timer 21 prestige)?<br />Sorry for all the questions!<br />Many thanks,<br />AmandaAmanda Fleethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15838595882535434260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18497333.post-63133650899653273502011-03-14T16:44:15.399-04:002011-03-14T16:44:15.399-04:00I'm very pleased that Laurie is going to try o...I'm very pleased that Laurie is going to try out the Timer 21 inserts.
