It seems that I am increasingly unable to control my spending when inebriated. Last summer there was the vuvuzela bought for £5 off Ebay which surprisingly turned up at my door (yes I know they were much cheaper in the shops). Then recently there has been a string of scratchcards that I have found in my jacket pocket the morning after, always unscratched, of course. And then I bought a record. Yes, a piece of vinyl. And yes, I do not have a record player. The latest though confounds all possible explanation – daffodils. WTF was I thinking?
