    I could quite happily go a "cheese and nibbles" evening....but we've got soup.....I had to get it out of the freezer to get the turkey in......I don't know what flavour soup it is either but it smells nice....got some part baked baguettes to bung in the oven to go with it....mind you there's an advert on for fajitas and I could quite happily eat those too.

    ooo fajitas yum haven't had them in ages. I could also eat a really juicy Red pesto and mozarella burger with fries...
    Or a nice plate of lasagne and salad
    Or again cheese, pickle and onions :)

  • I have an Asda curry for dinner - a little treat and I did get 10% off.
    Got quite a few bits at 20% off (cds, cards, wrapping paper, slippers).
    And an Igglepiggle sort of fell into my trolley too.

    I have a Batfink tee! Saw it in New Look and it was mega cheapo (in sale) I love Batfink, I'm such a sad act. Made Pint have a funny look on his face as I'd been eating the bobbly ones from licorice allsorts (got a tub of em for 95p) and he kissed me and he doesn't like licorice.

    Also, !!!!!! am I meant to do on a 4 hour break. Can barely eat anything at uni as it's all crappo (chips/burgers/pizza/brekkie) so hafta hit Mr S and get a flask and soup and gluten free bread. The joys of my life

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Where do I find him and how? And yes, Batfink would be a very good choice for me

    howdy - quick whoosh in and out before teaching - last session of the term - woooooooooohooooooo!! God, the last 6 weeks have been a nightmare.

    Snags - _pale_ at playing hockey. I hated hockey more than any other sport at school. Cold, wet, muddy, red legs from the cold and wearing a gym skirt _pale_. My ex plays hockey - has done for about 30 years since being a teenager and still plays at quite a high level. Just keep your face out of the way of flailing sticks - it's a flippin' violent sport and faces seem to often take the brunt of it! :eek:

    Have a good last teaching session BB, just what will you do with all that spare time you will have ;) Think you need to put your feet up and give yourself a rest for a couple of weeks!

    SRM thats very annoying..im sure they do it at this time of year just to rake it in on the postage and quicker service. Im sure they could process the orders in the same timescale but they don't just to make a point.
