Somerfield in Bletchley is closing on the 18th October (I think its that date, Its a saturday!!) They've got a few offers on at the mo, (25% off, 50% off only some things though) Look for little green shelf prices!!!
Apparently according to someone working there, That is where Primark are going. Can't wait, Hate getting the train to Northampton!!!!

Walked passed the old Somerfield today, they're starting a shop refit, and there was a sign outside advertising that they have vacancies for Managers, staff etc.

And the shop is going to be ...........

Home Bargains :T :T :T

Can anyone recommend a plumber please? I need to have a new pump fitted for the waste from my washing machine. It's leaking (slowly) so I need to find someone fairly quickly.

Does anyone know if there are still any car boots running - preferably hardstanding so don't get bogged down in the mud?

Thanks
Gilly

As far as I know the car boot at the bowl is still happening every Sunday morning. We went a couple of weeks ago!

Cheers

Does anyone know if there's an organic butcher anywhere in MK? Am looking to get a large organic beef joint for Christmas.

Thanks

There's a farm shop at Beachampton - I know they do organic turkeys, so they probably do beef as well. Their number is 01908 269868.

We've decided to fill in our garden pond and want to re-home the fish. I was going to offer them on Freecycle, but they don't allow you to offer pets and apparently pond fish are classed as pets!

There are goldfish, golden orfe, blue orfe and a solitary but beautiful shubunkin - about a dozen in total. All in good health.

If you have a pond and would like to give these a good home, please pm me and I'll make some arrangements for collection.

Thanks,

LL
