    Hiya guys, hope you don't mind me popping in! I keep reading about all you guys doing dooyoo reviews, and I was wondering.... could I register just to rate the reviews you do? I wouldn't know what to write as a review (mine would be just like Shelley's beans review :) ) so not gonna bother with that!
    But I found the site yesterday while looking for parking info, and the review itself was very good.....

    Hello RT and CAFCgirl!

    Sarah - yes, you can register and read and rate without writing anything. But why not try and write something too - I bet it will be better than you think!

    shelley - def review the wines, after suitable consumer testing of course....why do you think I write so many chocolate reviews....it is a good opportunity to buy more ;)

    Morning. How is the ironing pile? Mine has grown again. Still only 1 odd sock. Think I will have to join you on the ebay fest and get some of our tat listed. I have just bought DS1 a memory foam mattress as his had springs poking out of it and he has started to moan. Not bad considering its 14 years old. Have a good day.

    The ironing is still under control.......:T

    Just done this week's online shop - it really is frightening how much it adds up - I even went through it with OH before confirming it to see what we could cut out. There were no valid discount codes available either which is a shame!

    Still, we have to eat and clean, so I suppose I have to just accept it! I will declare it on the grocery challenge and my spending diary on Tuesday once I know the actual amount after discounts/offers etc, but it is still in the region of £80 :mad:

    If find the more you write the better you get. My earliest ones are awful but even if I say it myself-when I can find the oomph to sit down and write they aren't so bad now (no crowns yet though :()

    Right off to have a bath and then tidy and then if time a review before work. Sadly rainy weather usually means it's busy so can't write sneaky ones on the lappy whilst taking calls (although I do often have loquax open and enter competitions whilst customers are taking their time doing things and I have to wait for them)

    Off to soak and contemplate what to review whilst I turn into a prune.

    I agree my first ones were not nearly as good as they could have been! It also depends on how tired I am - sometimes there is no shuttng me up :o Sometimes I struggle to write anything of any interest, so give up.

    Have just done a review on my online supermarket shop :rolleyes: Am now two thirds of the way to payout....
