    Urrgghh, I think champagne is one of the worst things for feeling rough the next day. I rarely get hangovers but I have had a couple of blinders after drinking fizz, even decent stuff.

    Not a huge fan though really, give me a nice glass of red anyday!

    Right there with you Bunny - this week is carb-a-wallow week here too.

    Mr Sunday has backed off again :rolleyes: which I'm not really surprised about (if anything, I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner), have full-on pmt (which is sort-of a good thing but still rather unwelcome), and alongside feeling ill, stressed, and having two sick, cranky kids and a c*ck of an XOH, I feel completely wiped out.

    My kitchen is full of washing up. Didn't do it last night...huge mistake. It's threatening to take over the ground floor.


    leave the washing up......:grouphug:

    Hi all...I had my first Graze box yesterday too (thanks Pooky!) and was absolutely delighted with it. I had olives in basil and garlic; bbq cashew nuts; naturally dried apricots and the rocky mountain mix....lush.

    Am tempted to keep it going too as I enjoyed all £2.99s worth and is less than a pack of fresh fruit in M&S or similar.

    Like Ames, I have three codes for free boxes, so please feel free to PM me for them.
    YOUR = belonging to you (your coat); YOU'RE = you are (I hope you're ok)

    really....it's not hard to understand :T
