    Had a power cut yesterday evening so I went and sat outside a neighbour asked if I'd like to come to T's with her (I had had a few voddies so couldn't drive) When we got there a lad was bringing out a massive tray with meat in (around 40 packs) this "lady" that had been blocking the whoopsie fridge pounced on him grabbed the tray and tipped it into her trolley :eek:
    He had the reducing machine and was doing the stuff that was on the shelves, the same woman positioned herself next to the lad and snatched everything out of his hand as he reduced it, the lad moved her trolley out of his way so a few others could get to the cabinet, remember I said I'd had a few vodkas? Wellllllllll in super stealth mode I wriggled pass the "lady" wheeled her trolley to behind the newspaper stand, took out 6 packs for me 6 packs for my neighbour and left the rest of the trolley by the entrance for others to enjoy :D:D:D

    I just love it :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: I've often wanted to do that

    Morning very one on yet another bright and sunny day
    (((Hugs))) to those in need and to those that just want a hug from me
    Trip to Ts planned with DS1 later, well after 11 o'clock must get my claim in for free Friday milk lol
    Will limp round Ts and see if there is anymore coffee as Nescafe is my favourite instant coffee
    There's no place like home :)

    Feeling down? Weak in body? Makes no difference to me, I think of you all when I'm sitting quietly.

    Hugs and healing thoughts are always going your way.

    I have just been checking the Olympic torch relay route because I thought it would be passing quite close, and have found that it is not a relay.
    It actually bypasses my town with noone carrying it .
    Not that I care as I wasn't going to waste my time going to watch it but thought my kids might want to.

    I had an email from my council, saying the flame will be in Ipswich. Tickets are available to attend an extravaganza in Christchurch Park but I understand they have to be paid for.
    We won't be going

    But fixed price only. An opportunity to try it on with very expensive items that you wouldn't be willing to sell cheap, but wouldn't normally bother paying the listing for??
