    glad to spend your money! hope it helps you get nearer the 10k, if i see anything else i'll let you know but only if you have got any ideas of dealing with shingles!
    have bought stuff off here before and usually good quality so reckon you will at least treble your money, half cost is a good one to keep an eye on too for their deals - previouly got packs of two single sheets and 2 pillowcases - 3 sets for £3.98 less 10% so def worth signing up to get their alert emails


    oooh you got shingles??? time off and take it easy my dear!!!

  • Sainsburys have been!
    Got a £10 voucher for them being late, he stopped, we were stood there, he didn't see us so waited maybe 5 seconds then drove off. Almost straight away! Took him five minutes to get back to us, and then half the shopping hadn't been packed in bags so it hurt getting it all in. There's some really stupid substitutions, too, but hey ho. We have food!

    Skint, get well soon! Shingles is horrible.
    Mambury, what did you get?
    Signature down for maintenance :rotfl:

    Lol skint no not the fishing flies! Aww you poor thing shingles are awful my Mum gets them- hope you feel better soon :-(

    glad you got your shopping at last Saucy- make sure you have something nice to eat and chill out hun.

    Jo- yeah I think that will be the best bet, have them individually priced depending on the work in them etc. I've got one done that won't be a one off- it's just plain White fur with a ribbon loop to attach the little charms too, all the others will be different ( well that's the theory anyway!)

    Evening everyone,

    Where has everyone been hiding this weekend? Has their been sunshine or something that I have missed?

    Hasd a lovely weekend, spoilt myself and made an amazing friend, thats two now thanks to this thread. Still back to reality tomorrow, have to catch up on some listing, my house is a minefield of junk and boxes!

    Jo- did you manage 101? Forgot, congrats on the list, you are an truly inspirational person and deserve it!

    Joey - I love your little tortoises, they are adorable, no more pets for me, however that doesn't stop me ogling over yours!

    Em - I am poorly too, can I have the other half? :D

    Mambury - thankyou muchly for the links, strawberries are a firm fav here and poundland had some hanging baskets in, so perfect, no point planting in the garden, if the neighbours carry on I am moving and I am not planting them to feed the next tennant, they need to be portable!

    MummyandPaige - the friend things is a great big ditto and thank you again for a really lovely stay!

    this may sound daft but it always worked for my grandfather and for us when we were little. but a little bit of vanilla essences on the pulse points really helps with skeeters and midges. sweet smell but bitter *just my two pence worth*
    I am somebody. I am me. I like being me. And I need nobody to make me somebody! Louis L'Amour
