This is not me, but little bear. He was given money for his birthday and went yesterday to town with his father to spend it. OH takes him to a particular shop which has lots of Doctor Who merchandise, the same place he got the enormous cardboard cut out of the Dalek. And though it is a nuisance having a birthday at Christmas, it is great if you get money because you get more for it in the sales.
However little bear didn't fancy that much of the stuff there. He came back with some goodies, but also quite a bit of his money. OH was thrilled - little bear didn't spend for the sake of it. He bought what he wanted and only what he wanted and then stopped. We must have done something right.
Today OH has taken little bear to Toys R Us. Little bear is quite subdued at the moment, definitely not his normal self, but they trotted happily off to Toys R Us. They have been gone some time.
Little bear will probably be a lot better with money than I ever will be. He was very clear about exactly how much money he has to spend, and while he is picking out a present for his friend's birthday he was very clear who was paying for it - not him!
He will do alright.
