Hi BB, come on chin up. Why only a few hours in Manchester?

It's on the Manc thread Lenny - basically, there is a surprise party for my OH's sister and BiL about 45 minutes away on the train - that night!. I know I was invited by them but he is being resistant to be being welcome.. I am torn between wanting to go because I know i've been invited, wanting to stay with you lot all evening and wanting to go because I know he isn't keen on me being there......:rolleyes:

And skint.............ooh, a bit of pampering!!! That is real luxury!!!!

Just popped back to say the Glasgow Race for Life is 7th June - I know Maz and some others were talking about doing it.

You can do highstreet web and kelkoo searches on quidco daily which would be 13p a day.
Don't think any of the supermarkets give you cashback on shopping.

There's a thread somewhere by Eagerlearner that will tell all!

If you go through http://www.mysupermarket.co.uk/ you get ipoints. Does that count?

I know.........it's bad isn't it.......where the water from the rain had gone down the driveway and gathered before it started to snow, there are just big areas of ice _pale_ The sun is bright and the road is starting to clear, but I dread to think what it will be like in the park etc. I could do with some shoes with a bit of grip on them - canvas slip on shoes ain't good in February in the snow :rolleyes:

You need crimpons and an ice pic today BB, all the snow fell off our house roof several times yesterday as there was so much and was in a huge pile outside the front door...its rock solid and no chance of it melting as the sun doesn't get that low down in winter.

I thought about getting some of them a few weeks back. I'm sure I saw something similar on TV when I was flicking through the channels....it was when it was freezing a month ago and I thought - nah, I won't need them again this winter :rolleyes:

Well they should last more than one winter. And may help if you ever venture up to the cold-blasted north. i.e. London.

These are the ones my daughter has just bought for me BB. She got them from QVC and I think theyr were slightly cheaper than those.

Of course since I have had them, we haven't had any snow or ice so I can't confirm if they are any good, but there were a lot of good reviews on QVC.
