)

- do trial shop for another MS company
- go on wiifit twice :eek:
Roll on Sunday night
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

What is it by the way ?
Erm in a word...yes, I know, I'm weak! Anyway 9 bottles to add to the garage stash for just over £26 on a wine thats normally £7.99 a bottle cannot be bad!:rolleyes: They seem to give 5% off the orginal price if you buy 6 or more and then the extra discount:j

Theres lots on 3 for £10 but the ones I chose were Merlot Vina Maipo Reserva Red - very smooth yum, and the Rose equivalent. At that price I couldn't leave them there, could I?
Good news on the money front, both hubby and I got Quidco payouts, mine £10 and hubbys £22 ...every little helps:T
Gallygirl, you need to rest, that list is far to long!

Fortuitously I'm too far east to hear it! I'm sure you sound great, but the choice of music leaves me with visions of all that was sooooo wrong with the 1970s :rolleyes:Tesco_points_addict wrote: »Can you hear Abba anyone???? Its meeeeeeeeeeeeee:rotfl:

Mind you, recession, civil unrest, redundancies, Labour Government..... maybe it isn't just ABBA that reminds me of that era; the only thing we don't have are endless strikes and powercuts for that "authentic" feel... (Sorry to all you under 35 who won't remember that time!).
mmmmm, now where did I put my grumpy old man's cardigan?
