    Oooh I like that hot water bottle. My eldest DD has just bought my youngest DD a hot water bottle similar to that one for £8 from New Look, I actually prefer the look of that one in HB. Will have to keep an eye out for one, you can never have too many hot water bottles lol
  • thanks for the tip on the h.w.bottle, been hoping they'd get them in, i'll get down there when i finally get some money. :beer:
  • Cashew Nougat Bars are yummy, 29p each :)
    God is good, all the time

    I forgot to post about the china - if it's what I saw in Retford, it's by Typhoon (stocked in our Waitrose), and the sets are in this design:

    Just realised, it really was a bargain at £2.99 for the teapot, cups and saucers when the teapot alone is worth £12. Might have to go back, I can always mend/replace the box!
