    Hi Shaun - these bugs are weird, aren't they - I'm sure they're virus-y as opposed to cold-y, round here anyway.

    Ducks in live vests.... you've got me on that one (again :o) - have you been seeing video clips of that penguin in the wetsuit??? :rotfl: no really!

    I'm off to Wol's, just going to post a hi on her thread and then go wash my hair, or she won't let me in the house :o:o:o You take care, have a good one.

    Well done the offers sound good. Now your feeling better will mention the toilet roll thingy. Ive been buying dunnes own they were €2.59 for 12 for forever then went up overnight as they do:rolleyes: to €2.99 anyway I noticed yesterday the 4 pck are only 55c!!! big difference so I bought 3 pcks X 4. They wont catch me out like that again mmmmm. :rotfl:
    What a rivetting existence we have :rotfl: Still worth the mention.

    Try and get some rest if at all possible with little ones, sounds like a nasty virus.

    Well done re the bowl, plate etc set thats great value, could do with some new ones, all cracked now (me too:rotfl:) so need to replace really.

    Just made some hobnobs and hoovered everywhere, bathroom sparkling after stardrops treatment. Beds done and now have to decide on tea, think it might be pizza for the kids and maybe chilli for Mr T. Dont know what time to expect him home.

    Been looking at the panny breadmaker on OS I really really really would love one, but suppose will have to wait until my morphy richards dies. Not very MS getting a new one otherwise.;)

    Shaun I think it is

    Tesco Finest (will kill me according to their packaging)
    Tesco Standard (ditto!)
    Tesco Value (and just for a change - yep you got it will kill me!)

    Can you tell that even though tesco is the closest supermarket we prefer to travel to one we trust :rolleyes:
