  • Sob..you can go off people you know!

    Cow bag!

    For anyone reading that doesn't already know, my toms died a quick but painful death after picking up the 'blight'. The trouble is 'Pride comes before is Fall' and before their sad demise I was gloating rather on how fantastic my tom crop looked!

    Well I'm back from the boot sale, I made about £40

    Oh yeah, you def can go off people. I only made £18 at ours. I think I only had about 6 customers.

    Aw well I'd better get back to the gardening - see you laters.

    Ok, you asked! You put the edge in your mouth, manipulate the biscuit with your mouth as you munch on it eventually it is all gone and you still have both hands free for typing etc;)

    I had a NSD but hubby didn;t, he bought me flowers...awwwww, we met this time 7 years ago:o.
    His is a good MS though, bought me my favs and should have only cost him about a fiver (I hate big bunches, they take too much fiddling with:rotfl:)

    I have done another MShop today have a phone call one tomorrow and a supermarket again on Sunday, two jobs on Monday, Tuesday and extra shift and a £15 Mshop!:j Phewwww.

    Was that reduced price merlot ie with a yellow sticker, or a offer that will be on at all Tescos? Need to get a couple of bottles for my party as I know most people will ignore the cheeky 'bring a bottle' on the invites!

    Great offer on at all Tesco, includes Rose, White and Merlot was £6.99 reduced to £3 per bottle: Its the Wolf Blass, if you buy six bottles you get a further 5% too, if you still have any of your Tesco vouchers after paying for NIMs OU take them into store and they will double them up against wine. Offer is not on wine driect from Tesco for some reason:confused: Can vouch for the wine, even at £6.99 its a good price!
    If only I had some cheese strings I'd join you :D......

    Now that would be cheating!:rotfl:

    Today I have a very strange MS where I have to eat my lunch with a load of soldiers......bet all you ladies out there feel really sorry for me...not:rotfl:
