    :T Well done that girl:T .....it is a bit strange as I have never bought options before I bought some mint flavour this morning and have just tried it then saw your post...spooky!

    They are quite nice even though I am not a lover of chocolate drinks, I wouldnt mind trying the Turkish Delight one.

    ooo - that is spooky! I'm getting quite into them as they take longer to drink than it would take to eat a chocky bar but still feel quite indulgent. and no Spud there's no Baileys in it!:D

    DD, some days are chattier than others but there's usually someone about at some point if you want a chat or need someone to talk to.

    They have Skinty, 2 weeks ago I bought 3 bottles of Stowells Reisling and it was only £2 a bottle. I drank one, saved one for Xmas and am going to use one as a pressie. Some of the 3 for £10 are really expensive wines too such as Lindemans which is usually abot £7 a bottle.

    You can be tempted, they are bloomin bargains:D I may have 1 glass of red tonight as I have been an angel all week and saved my syns today:cool:
