    Hello there everyone - later in posting today compared to yesterday!

    Have had a busy day of it, but was delighted to get some washing dry this morning before I left the house! It was only out on the line for about an hour, but it makes a difference.

    Last night's tea was fish pie from the freezer :) and very tasty it was too. DH requested pasta for tea tonight and when I went to Tesco to order my soya milk in bulk, as they've delisted it :eek: I got some of Jamie Oliver's pasta and pasta sauce for half price as it's on offer just now. So, I can bulk that out with some mushrooms, peppers and a bit of salami.

    I'm driving DH's car today, as there's a problem with the gear box. Could do without it, but it'll need to be fixed :(

    I hope everyone's having a good day. I'll try and read some of the postings now.....

    Take care

    (((Hugs))) to Mr Sistercas.

    Silvercharming - I'm glad the info was useful. I tend to get carried away when I'm passionate about something, but I see you feel the same way too. I hope you find you like the Co-op.

    Welcome to MaximumImpact - another 'thread' baby; fantastic! When's it due?

    Happyroly - I think it's lovely that you've sent something to Bargainbird - I do hope she's OK. She may well be home with her new LO, but very tired.

    AnnieS - great to hear from you!

    Halight - you've had a lucky escape - I dozed off and now don't have time to come up!

    Well, I've had a lazyish afternoon. I didn't really intend to doze off straight after my lunch, honest. I woke up freezing cold - I always do after a nap - so I've had two cuppas to warm me up.

    Off to do something constructive now; I don't know what, yet.

    KathyXX

    morning all!



    Not looking forward to more cold weather and snow - I really suffer in the cold with my reyauds.My poor fingers get frozen even with good gloves on.
    Taplady they are prob not very MS or OS but I have read something about gloves with silver or something in them that they recommend for circulation problems. You can also try 2 pairs.. might not be so good tho but better than nothing. maybe a thin pair and a thicker one on top. I do that myself as I got some thick ones from Primark as they looked nice but one got a hole in first time wwearing and cos I can't sew or darn I tend to just use them when it's real cold on top of a thin pair.
